Check Craigslist, contact a maid service, etc...
Do the research.

You should call around to cleaning companies in your area as a "potential customer" and feel them out for information. Just ask general questions about their prices and services, and how their rates are determined, etc. These people will be your competition, so it's probably best to try to make your rates comparable with theirs.Good luck!
