    How Much Profit Is Actually Left Over For A Million Dollar Cleaning Business? | Ep 130

    Check out the 30 Day Install Program---- Apply Here For The 30 Day Install  Can you build a million-dollar cleaning business and still have nothing left over for yourself at the end of the month? Year three, Logan and Katie hit $1,016,211 in revenue — and kept $207,901 of it. Not by luck. By system. In this episode they get financially naked and reveal the Predictable Profit System that guarantees money is left over for the owner every single month. Inside, you'll learn the three not-so-secret secrets: The Money Math Playbook — a plan for every dollar before it comes in, split across six categories (55% cleaners, 3% supplies, 5% marketing, 10% office wages, 7% overhead, 20% owner's pay) so owner profit is built in, not hoped for. The Freedom Sequence — why money freedom and time freedom don't arrive together, and how you make the money first, then buy back your time (their profit % dropped from 35% to 20%, but take-home went from $42K to $207K). The Personal Financial Blueprint — the three plans from Rich Dad Poor Dad (security, comfortability, wealthy) that took Logan and Katie from a negative $20,000 net worth to $4.7 million. New episodes drop on Money Mondays and Thirsty Thursdays. Managing a house cleaning business that has reached $83,000 & beyond in monthly revenue requires strong leadership, management, culture, accountability, delegation, hiring, staffing, recruiting, interviews, accurate estimates, effective quoting, competitive pricing, smart sales, consistent referrals, strategic SEO, targeted Facebook ads, and exceptional cleaning services to sustain long-term growth.

    How to Hire Your First Cleaning Business Employee in 3 Stages (Zero to 50 Employees) | Ep 128

    Check out the 30 Day Install Program---- Apply Here For The 30 Day Install  Still cleaning every house yourself because hiring feels too risky, too complicated, or too expensive? Logan and Katie built their cleaning company from zero to over $3 million and 50+ W-2 employees across three states — and in this episode they hand you the exact hiring process, including the real stories nobody warns you about: cleaners getting hurt, filing for unemployment, wrecking cars, breaking a $20,000 heated tile floor, and getting accused of stealing an $18,000 ring. Stage 1 — The Setup: The seven accounts that legally make you an employer, most of them free, done in one morning (and why Cliff's welder friend lost a 10-year business without them). Stage 2 — The Road: The actual math on W-2 vs. 1099, plus drive time, mileage, and the auto coverage gap that nearly cost them after a training-day car accident. Stage 3 — The Problems: How every account you set up in Stage 1 becomes the thing that keeps you in business when a cleaner gets hurt, quits, breaks something expensive, or threatens to sue. Ready to stop being the only employee in your business? The full checklist — and the link to get help implementing it — is waiting inside. New episodes drop on Money Mondays and Thirsty Thursdays.
