KEEP READING 🧵
1/ I graduated college and had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I became a realtor in Philadephia and was working full time. I was not enjoying it and I wanted to make more money.
So I decided to start a cleaning business...
2/ I was living in Philly but I had limiting beliefs of launching it in the city.
So I decided to launch it in Canada, BC - In my hometown.
Fast forward a couple of months and I had a 10k+ a month business while I was 100% remote.
3/ Firstly, I do not want to overcomplicate this - When I started I did things the hard way and I want to help you streamline this and scale it WAY faster.
1. Find where you want to launch - Research Google trends in that location and see if "House Cleaning" has traction.
4/ 2. Google Search Cleaning Businesses in that location. How many are showing up? Would you have much competition? What's the quality of the competition?
3. Launch the business - LLC, Insurance, Website, Google My Business, Ring Central, Jobber CRM, IndeedJobs, G Suite
5/ 4. Post an IndeedJobs Ad - Find a cleaner, onboard them to the CRM, and future date their start date so you have time to find a customer
5. Post a GoogleAd - Next is getting some customers - When a customer comes in it's as simple as assigning the job to the cleaner.
6/ You have the ability to post a google ad and indeed jobs campaign wherever you want. I am in Canada right now and if all of a sudden I wanted to find some cleaners and customers in Texas and start a cleaning business there - I could within 1 week.
7/ This business has a VERY low upfront cost so do not be scared of failing. The risk is low and the upside is super HIGH. What is the worst that happens? You have insurance worst case for your business and you only have to put a couple of thousand upfront.
8/ When it comes to starting a launching a cleaning business remote a couple of things need to be mentioned -
1. Template Systems and Processes - Jobber and Hiring a VA can help with this, especially if you are working a 9-5 as well.
9/ 2. Automation - Make sure to set up all automation through your CRM as you do not want to be stuck sending customer reminder emails and low-level tasks that can be easily automated.
10/ 3. "Will cleaners wanna work with me even though they have not met me."
Yes, cleaners are fine with it - the main thing is you need to look professional and be organized. Automations and a frictionless onboarding process will help with this.
11/ 4. Only collecting online payment - logistically complicated if you start accepting cash and checks.
5. Do not hold keys for the customers - logistically complicated.
6. GoogleAds - call to action button should be linked to online booking form - you do not want calls.
12/Respond to these customers fast, provide good customer support and, make sure to stay reliable and you have endless customers out there that will want your services.
13/ If this thread gets 1000 likes I will drop FREE VIDEO CONTENT next week breaking down exactly how you can do this in-depth.
I made over $500,000 by simply cold emailing effectively.
Let me show you how you can do it, by bootstrapping it from nothing. 🧵
1/ $500,000 net income over 4 years from cold emailing in the cleaning industry.
Yes, surprising but possible. When people think "cold email" a lot of times they assume you are talking about e-commerce, ad agency, coaching/consulting, etc
You don't think about sweaty startups
2/ I have been sending cold emails since day 1 of my business and it has landed me:
- Annual contracts up to the size of 45k
- One customer providing 5k/week revenue
- Monthly contracts providing MRR of 25-30k
Here's how I added 50k per month in cash flow, with only 2k upfront capital.
If you are looking for more cashflow, you just stumbled upon a gold mine.
🧵
1/ When I was looking to start my first business I was searching through different industries and noticed a ton of businesses either required large upfront capital to start or it took long to start positively cash flowing.
2/ Then, I stumbled across the cleaning industry...
An industry where clearing 10k, 25k, 50k months was achievable... all with at most a few hundred dollar start-up cost.
So you want to make 100k a year in your house cleaning business? It is very possible!
I actually bet you could be making 10k months within your first year.
//THREAD// 🧵
Here are 7 tips to break down exactly how to start making 10k a month from a business that costs as little as 2-3k capital to start.
Let's start with bottlenecks of the industry -
1. Quality Control 2. Hiring Quality Cleaners 3. Cleaner Reliability 4. Not Delegating
👇👇👇
1. Hiring Due Diligence - Be strict with who you hire - Key Things: How long they are looking to work for you, do they want full-time or part-time work, how many years of experience do they have, are they reliable, and can they provide character references.
If you master this you will dominate and you will build yourself a life changing cash flowing business.
🧵
1/ The residential cleaning industry has a ton of opportunity right now and its only escalating - House cleaning use to be a luxury and now it's a service everyone wants.
Even peaking higher interest due to COVID-19.
2/ People hire a cleaner and once they experience the feeling of coming home from work to a nice clean house... there is no going back. They are hooked!
LTV of customers is INSANE and the CAC is insanely low.
