đ $300 one-time jobs vs. $5K/month contracts. đ
Which one would you rather build your cleaning business on?
Most people start by chasing house cleaning jobs because itâs familiar.
But hereâs why itâs hard to scale:
1. Clients cancel
2. Schedules shift
3. Itâs tough to staff
4. Up and Down months
Meanwhile, office cleaning?
â
Recurring contracts
â
Predictable schedules
â
Easier to build systems
â
Easier to hire and train
Want a business that scales easier? Start commercial.

Letâs talk about what an extra $10K/month actually feels likeâŚ
Especially when you already have a job.
Because letâs be honest, if youâre here, on YouTube looking into starting a business then youâre probably not broke.
Youâre not living in your car.
Youâve got a paycheck. Maybe a house. A family. Some stability.
But youâre stuck in this weird middle zone:
You make enough not to panic
But not enough to feel free
And deep down you knowâyou could be doing more
So youâve been chasing the idea of âextraâ income.
Something on the side.
Maybe $5Kâ$10K/month so you can breathe a little easier.
But hereâs the truth most people donât talk about:
An extra $10K/month doesnât feel like money.
It feels like options.
It feels like not checking your account before booking the flight.
It feels like buying your kid the good versionânot the Amazon knockoff.
It feels like looking at your job and knowing, âI donât need this anymore.â
Thatâs what an extra $10K/month really buys you.
Not Ferraris. Not yachts.
Breathing room. Leverage. Power.
And hereâs the flip side:
If you donât make a move soonâŚ
Youâll look up in December this year, still at the same job, still feeling stuck, and the dream youâve been âthinking aboutâ will just be another thing you never did.
Thatâs the real cost.
Not the money.
The time you canât get back.
So if youâve been waiting on a sign, or just a little nudge, here it isâŚ
Start Making Moves! lol

Why Starting a Cleaning Business is *WAY* Better Than Buying One đ°
Thinking about buying a cleaning business? Hold upâyou might want to start your own instead. Hereâs why:
1ď¸âŁ Itâs WAY Cheaper â Buying a business can cost a fortune. Starting your own? You can get up and running for way less and actually control where your money goes.
2ď¸âŁ Youâre Not Stuck With Someone Elseâs Mess â When you buy a business, youâre inheriting *everything*âthe systems, the habits, and possibly a bunch of problems the last owner left behind. Fixing that mess? Not fun.
3ď¸âŁ You Get to Build the Culture You Want â When you start fresh, you set the vibe. No trying to fix a toxic work culture or change bad employee habitsâyou build it --your way-- from the start.
4ď¸âŁ No Dealing With Nightmare Clients â Buying a business means taking on all their clientsâgood and bad. If they signed bad contracts or took on nightmare clients, guess what? Youâre stuck with them. Starting your own means working with *who you want.*

"Why Most People Will NEVER Start Their Cleaning Business (Even Though It's Their Best Shot At Freedom)"
I talk to dozens of people every month who say they want to start a cleaning business. The harsh truth? 90% of them will still be stuck in the same job next year.
â
The market is getting more competitive EVERY DAY. Customer acquisition costs have risen dramatically over the past few years. Those easy early wins are disappearing fast.
â
The automation tools that make this business scalable are becoming mainstream. What was once a competitive advantage is becoming the bare minimum to survive.
â
Corporate cleaning chains are expanding aggressively. They're buying up the independent operations that waited too long to grow and systematize.
Here's what most people don't realize: The cleaning business isn't complicated, but it DOES have a window of opportunity. And that window is closing faster than most realize.
I've seen too many smart, capable people wait for the "perfect time" only to find themselves competing in a much tougher market a year later, wishing they'd started sooner.
The business model still works beautifullyâbut only for those who take action NOW rather than endlessly "researching" while others actually build.
What's the ONE thing holding you back from starting TODAY?

Why I've Stopped Hiring "Experienced" Cleaners EARLY on
I wasted months chasing "experienced cleaners" when I started my business. Big mistake.
Here's what nobody tells you:
â
Beginners = bigger talent pool. When you're starting out, people with zero cleaning experience are your secret weapon. No baggage, just pure potential.
â
Your methods stick better. Training someone fresh means they learn YOUR system first, not whatever hodgepodge of techniques they picked up elsewhere.
â
Zero pushback on your standards. Never hear "that's not how we did it at ABC Cleaning" when you're trying to build your brand your way.
Veteran cleaners have their place - but not in those critical early days when you're establishing your business identity.
The blank slate hires will help you grow faster while the "experienced" ones often just slow you down with their preconceptions.
Sometimes the industry "wisdom" is exactly what's holding you back.
Do you look for beginners or experienced cleaners, let's discuss! đ

YesTHE 4 QUARTER LOGIC THAT WILL CHANGE ANY CLEANING BUSINESS OVERNIGHT
Most cleaning entrepreneurs are killing themselves trying to stack 100 pennies when they could just grab 4 quarters.
Think about it...
If your goal is $25,000 monthly revenue:
⢠You could hustle for 50 small accounts at $500 each
⢠OR land just 5 premium contracts at $5,000 each
Same money. Drastically different business.
With those small accounts, you're juggling 50 different locations, schedules, invoices, relationships, and headaches.
With premium contracts, you're focusing your entire operation on delivering excellence to just 5 clients who actually value what you provide.
Stop collecting pennies when quarters are sitting right there waiting to be picked up.
The smart money is focusing on fewer, bigger, better clients.
Are you up for the challenge?

If You Donât Start with Systems, Youâre Building Yourself Another JobâNot a Business.
I see it all the time. Someone gets the itch to start a cleaning business.
They land their first client, maybe two. And because they want to âsave moneyâ or âlearn the ropes,â they do the cleaning themselves.
Fast forward a few months⌠and guess what? Theyâre stuck.
Cleaning six days a week, ten hours a day. Exhausted. Burnt out. And worst of all?
Trapped in the very thing they were trying to escape.
How do I know? Because I did it!!!
When I started my cleaning business, I thought, âIâll just do the cleaning for now and hire later.â
That little âfor nowâ turned into months of scrubbing toilets and mopping floors like an hourly employee.
đ Now before you start getting all sensitive, I love cleaning!
Anyone who knows my story knows I started out as a cleaner.
But I didn't start this business to clean offices professionally.
I started this business create good jobs, serve great clients, and to build something REAL for myself and family.
So hereâs a tough pill to swallow: If you donât build systems from day one, you probably never will.
Most people donât get âtoo busyâ to systemize their business. They get comfortable.
They get trapped in their own routine. And before they know it, theyâve built a prison with their own two hands.
So, let me save you monthsâmaybe yearsâof wasted time.
Before you ever touch a mop, have a plan.
â
Whoâs going to do the work? (Hint: It shouldnât be you.)
â
How are you pricing jobs to afford a cleaner?
â
Whatâs your client onboarding process?
â
Whatâs your hiring plan for when contracts start stacking up?
If you donât have answers, *STOP.* Because if youâre not thinking about these things now, youâre setting yourself up for failure later.
If you're curious how I made the great escape from cleaning, an scaled my cleaning business to the elusive 7fig Club this watch this video đ https://youtu.be/0AthjNqp9cw

Most People Fail in Business Because Theyâre Surrounded by the Wrong People.
You can Google strategies. You can watch YouTube videos. But if you donât have the right people around you, itâs easy to stay stuck.
Thatâs why I built a private Skool community for people actually building automated cleaning businesses.
No fluff, no âmaybe somedayâ energyâjust:
â
Real conversations with people landing contracts & scaling
â
Lessons from othersâ wins (and mistakes)** so you move faster
â
A space where youâre pushed to take actionânot just consume info
This isnât just about learning. Itâs about building, together.
If thatâs what you need, come join us!
