Running a business isn’t always about inventing the next big app or chasing a tech unicorn. For many entrepreneurs, success comes from solving everyday problems with consistency, quality, and trust. That’s exactly what this residential cleaning business owner shared on the I AM CEO Podcast, where she discussed her journey of building a thriving service-based company.
Why Residential Cleaning Works as a Business Model
The cleaning industry continues to grow, with both residential and commercial demand on the rise. For aspiring entrepreneurs, cleaning services check several important boxes:
- Low barrier to entry – You don’t need massive upfront capital to get started.
- Recession-resistant demand – Homes and businesses always need cleaning, regardless of the economy.
- Scalable operations – Start solo or with a small team, then grow into multiple crews or locations.
This episode highlights how a business owner took these advantages and built them into a dependable company serving local families.
How Franchising Fits In
While the guest built her own independent business, the model she describes is exactly why cleaning service franchises are one of the fastest-growing segments in franchising today. They provide:
- A proven playbook for marketing and operations.
- Built-in brand recognition and customer trust.
- Training and support for scaling faster.
For anyone looking at entrepreneurship without wanting to reinvent the wheel, residential cleaning franchises offer a path to ownership with lower risk and higher support.
