Financing Options for Service Industry?

Anyone out there offer financing options for their services.  We are a house cleaning service and through our training center (we teach cleaning) we thought we would reach out to Affirm and sell our classes with financing option.  When I spoke to Affirm they asked why not our cleaning services? Well, yes why not?  Anyone has tried this?  If you have what are some to dos and do nots have you learned?

    Jobber has financing through Wisetack. They work with tickets of under $25k. This isn't great for my business because often the financed jobs are more. The other draw back is they only release the funds once the job is done. So if a customer isn't tech saavy or "forgets" you're waiting to get paid. We started working with Enhancify. It's basically a software that people can apply for financing through. They get the money up front, and if they have a lot of projects can finance them all at once. You pay like $1500 per year and get branded materials, a finance portal and lots of other things to market financing. The other solution is Hearth but it's essentially the same thing as enhancify but more expensive. This is my referral link if you want to check it out. We've financed a few jobs and it was really smooth.
