Housekeeping is part of our everyday lives from wiping a counter, washing the dishes, mopping the floor - methods of which have been passed down the family line or it is something we have picked up and made our own. The way you keep your environment shows the pride taken in this everyday space.

Cleaning regimes and methods are what cleaning companies have, over time, built and made their own. These staying with the company and not adapting with the times.

August Insight will bring a mindset change to the way things are done, changing the direction and methodology to systems that should have changed over time.

Areas include:

• Smarter and innovative ways to clean;
• New equipment available to better clean;
• Reviewing frequencies of regimes;
• Creating a cleaning specification;
• Being more sustainable with the detergents and methods used;
• Training teams to better understand why and how cleaning is done.

We come with years of experience in the cleaning industry and can help you turn your cleaning business to be set apart from your competitors. We will fine tune your offering to suit your client’s needs, offering a service that will make it seem more personalized. Achieving consistently high standards and quality is what we do best. We are committed to the highest standards of cleanliness.

You have heard the old definition of professionalism – the swan that looks as though it is gliding effortlessly across the lake, while paddling furiously below.

That is the essence of a good reception. It depends on specific skills and drills that must be performed correctly, around the clock. Complex multi-tasking; synchronising with team members. Trying to reserve a boardroom, while taking a call, just as a group of clients are arriving...and of course coping with it all in a calm, unflustered manner.

The upper league receptionist is marked-out by certain characteristics that simply shine through. An air of efficiency that suggests good order within. Dressing and grooming in tasteful style, to echo the company’s values and brand. That mix of warmth, charm and dignity that reflects the culture of prestige organisations. It is that elusive factor that can upgrade people’s view of the company, before they have even set foot beyond the reception area.

August Insight is the company to partner with to achieve the world class service required at your reception desk, adding the flair and training required to take your reception service to the next level.

Offering a range of services for your reception area that will include:

• Reception training;
• Staff mentoring;
• Meet and greet scripts;
• Telephone scripts;
• Grooming tips;
• Personal brand/image;
• Communication skills;
• Business etiquette;
• Building a customer experience to suit your environment, culture and brand.

We believe that a company’s image is perceived when they walk through that door and are received by the reception team – is it one where they walk away thinking that was the best experience, knowing this company means business or is it one where they will be rethinking partnering with you.

August Insight believes that hospitality is key, service excellence is paramount and perceptions impact.

Gifts are one of the love languages. Also used to show appreciation for another or to celebrate something exciting. On the corporate side, how lovely is it to walk into a conference, or walk away, with a nifty gadget or something symbolising the journey that conference took you through.

Gifts have and always will be a big part of our lives in so many ways. Pillai is known for her gift giving and would shower all with trendy, cool, yet well thought through gifts.
