Good day,
My name is Paulina and I want to start my own cleaning business. I have a plan already but I'd like someone experienced as you to help me out.
Thank you Mrs Angela
Thank you Respectfully.
Hi Mrs Angela Brown can I get your ig handle so I can message you directly for some informations
Thank you for all your great videos. Like you I have had my cleaning business for 25yrs as of this past February. I’ve always done the work by myself. Also I’ve never had to advertise. It’s all been word of mouth. When I started I had another job. I decided to do a little cleaning on the side. Within a few months, I decided to quit my job and just do cleaning. I really enjoy it, but as you well know, it’s work. Take care. Jenny from Prescott Az
jennifer olivero I like your comment very encouraging I want to start out mines soon
🙌🙌🙌
Can you please give tips
Exactly what I’m doing right now! It’s not my full time job and I love it so much
Jenny that’s the same thing I tell folks. It’s word of mouth but best to already be working until it starts pumping $$$$. Then it’s up to you to do this alone or just simple enough money extra 😎. Love it sis
You not gonna k ow unless you start so just do it, you got this🙌🙌
So true! Thank you for sharing your input and thanks for watching. 🙂
Thanks for this comment, May GOD bless you In so many ways . We all need to be supportive and respectful to each other. I adore beautiful and kind hearted HUMANS.🙏🏼🙂🫶🏼
Excellent and thorough content! It made me realize just how much there is to the thought process and how much preparedness you need to go forth with a viable business plan. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for taking the time to comment, I appreciate it!
I just started my own cleaning business and I'm glad that I ran into this video because I want to get a plan into place while everything is processing for my llc. Thank you so much for this content!

How is it going Revenue wise?
What type of service do u offer?
I love your videos will help me a lot when I start my own business
Oh my , not sure how I missed this comment! Did you start your business? If so, how are things going?
Great video! You explained the topic well, and the visuals were helpful. I especially liked how you included examples to help illustrate your points. Keep up the good work!
Awesome, thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
It takes a lot of effort, trust, and work before you can convince someone to let you walk into their office or home unsupervised. Having said that, hiring trustworthy cleaners should be your highest priority as we believe that the greatest foundation of this business is built on trust.
Great point! I appreciate you reaching out to share your comment. 👍
@@AskAngelaBrown Our pleasure! Thank you, Angela!

BUSINESS PLAN: ideas, research and open the door, sketch, planning, design, make it, sell it, launch it!!
Love this!!
What is so bad about being just a company of one?
I agree. I don't want to manage, supervise or deal with any employees...but then again I may not want to always work:/
@@Amatullah.574 than business is not for you bye.
@@sjxjr8974 You can have a business without employees. Especially online. And there are many who do the house cleaning business alone.
@@Amatullah.574 I mean you make things done faster with having a partner bro or sis . So the profit is higher .
I like that, that was a good one
Glad you think so, thanks for watching!😊
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
I want to clean residental homes by myself, what advice can u give me to start frm a-z?
Helllo Mrs Angela! Thank you for helping us! I was watching one of your videos where you mentioned a website that we can free tutor from some retired people I don’t remember the name of the site. Can you remind me please
Hi Roseline, thanks for asking. It is the mentor program by SCORE and hosted by the Small Business Administration www.score.org/find-mentor Let me know how your mentor works out for you. I'm eager to hear your results.
Hi Angela, how do you clean a house that has 3 large dogs and there is hair EVERYWHERE including hot tub and shower… what ever I clean I leave hair behind… I also have an office that is the same way if not worse there is lots of dust and dog hair all over the place. How do you do it or what do you recommend? I seriously wanted to cry because I couldn’t get the animal hair off what I just scrubbed and cleaned!!
Oh no! That sounds frustrating. I have a video on how to keep your house clean with pets: ruclips.net/video/8UtX-bCftXQ/видео.html
My wife and I want to expand we have 30 houses but after 10 years in the industry we are thinking about to expand., we want open a business and llc and advertising.. u think it’s the right decision ? We also wanted add driveways pressure washer along with the housing clean
Yes, I absolutely encourage you to start a cleaning business! It sounds like you already have a solid client base. If you need some guidance on getting started, you can check out savvycleaner.com/join 😉 I'll be rooting for you.
I am wanting to start a cleaning company but I’ve never cleaned professionally before. I can’t afford to quit the work I am doing to take a pay cut to work for someone else. What are ways I can learn the job to start my own company?
We have a step-by-step program at Savvy Cleaner that I recommend. You can learn more here svy.tips/SCN
Hi Angela brown please how can I change the price if I want to increase it as I have started already
It is typical in the cleaning industry to have annual price increases of 2-3% in price. If you've underbid, you may have to take it on a job by job basis and contact each customer to rewrite the terms of your agreement.
She’s 100% correct
+Roy Cordova thanks for joining the conversation. 👍
Hi. Please what does deep cleaning include?
Deep cleaning can vary a bit depending on your client's needs and usually it targets those often-missed areas like cleaning appliances, dusting baseboards, doors and AC vents, disinfecting surfaces etc.
Am about entering into house cleaning business please I need help and guildline on how to go about it
Hi Chase, Welcome to the wonderful world of house cleaning. My first suggestion is to download my free ebook from Amazon. amzn.to/2Tx2bAA You can read it on any device with the free Kindle app. It's called How to Start Your Own House Cleaning Company. Come back with questions, we're here to help.
@@AskAngelaBrown okay I’m gonna do that
She has a lot of informative videos on her channel as well that will answer a lot of your questions. She’s a smart business lady and I appreciate that she shares her knowledge with us!
I wonder how long it takes to build enough clientele to quit a regular 14 dollar an hour job at 40 hours a week. How does one quickly build clientele. I have experience. And I wonder how much overhead I will need. I am.able to design a website. And then hire a tax professional to take out all required income tax. Talk to someone who already knows what to do. I am working alone right now.
Speaking to someone that is already in the business or getting a mentor witll help to guide you in the right direction and process of what you need to do. Not everyone builds a clientele fast. Eveyone is different. Good luck and wishing you lots of continued success.
@@AskAngelaBrown Thank you for your reply! Makes sense, too. Appreciate the response: )

Hello Emmason, Welcome to the channel and thanks for joining me here. We do have a free book you can download from Amazon amzn.to/3Irm1lf and read free on any device with the free Kindle app. It's called How to Start Your Own House Cleaning Company. That is a good place to start.
You can teach people to hire or help them plan. A good manager does not know everything so they have people around them who do know. Give it tine people. Know that it's a process and adjustments must be made
Well said, thanks for sharing your input!

Hi! Thanks for watching!
How much should we charge for a studio Airbnb cleaning?
Depends on the tasks involved and the location of the unit. Every BNB job is different and all are negotiable on price.
Do you need a car to start a cleaning company I don't drive
I have a video that addresses this topic: ruclips.net/video/llzMem3wodU/видео.html
Wishing you the best and I would love for you to keep me posted on how things go.
I would really love to talk to you about some thing in my business, what’s your email please ?
AskAHouseCleaner.com Click on the blue button and you can ask away.
Fuh! That's alot 😂 I quit.
Thanks for watching and sharing! 😃
how people succeed? What is their secret?
One of the biggest secrets to success is to show up every day. Keep showing up, keep providing value, keep your pricing reasonable, and have good customer service. 😍
I might start a cleaning business in because I don't think such services exist in my country, one think I'm afraid of is safety, Idk what kind of people I'm going to deal with so I might have to take some risks. But it's worth it. Thanks a lot Angela ❤❤❤
It sounds like you're mad at someone and you're sending a whole bunch of subliminal messages!
Not at all, thank you for your feedback. And thanks for watching.
hahahahahaah funniest comment of all time
I honestly thought the same thing lol
Telling people to give up? Get out now lol. Sheesh.
She telling the truth but it only affects those who trying to run a big business! I been cleaning for a long time but just my own stuff. I have the license an all but I will only take what I can do alone. So honestly for what I do, it don’t take all that hiring an stuff. I just told someone that, if you take on a lot then you don’t show up, it can be bad look on you. Stay with in your means
Thanks for telling us without telling us lol
Thanks for joining me and for spending a few minutes of your day here with me. 😀
I was expecting valuable, useful information on starting a business.
Sorry that this video was not useful to you, but feel free to take a look at this playlist of videos we made on starting your own cleaning business.
ruclips.net/p/PLh1fKdNH3piToHLNqqXQISDcB9khZKYHn
Hope you find these useful.
Skipped around a bit throughout the video to see if you talk about anything juicy specific to the house cleaning hospitality industry and was disappointed to see that most/if not all of the advice you've been giving is just very generic, cookie cutter type advice that could be applicable to any business (marketing, hiring employees and/or they are no-call-no-show's, etc). Don't get me wrong, that's all good advice and what not, but I felt like the title was a bit misleading. A more accurate title could've just been "Things You Need to Know Before Starting Your Biz" or something along those lines.
To give you some pointers on the type of info I'm looking for, would be things such as how in many jurisdictions, you'd be required to undergo a background check during the process of filing your business license if you plan on going into someone's home. If you're looking to do commercial kitchen cleaning, there may be specific licenses/certifications you'd need to have proving that you understand the importance of properly sanitizing working areas and how to clean the hood vent exhaust so the caked on grease/grime won't end up causing a fire, etc.
I have many videos on different aspects of creating and growing a cleaning business. Here is a link, I hope this helps! Wishing you much success! www.youtube.com/@AskAngelaBrown
This lady seems like she is trying to make people not want to clean lol.
Hahaha...not at all. But people should know what they're getting into. This business is not for everyone.
@@AskAngelaBrown lol sorry, that was rude of me to say. You’re right, it is not for everyone. Cleaning seems like it’s just a simple easy thing, but when customers are paying, quality is important.
It’s super hard work. I’ve been cleaning for 7 years and I’m finally just getting the courage to start my business. The scariest part for me is hiring because I have watched my employers struggle to find good employees. I know I’ll show up, but will they?
Real job?? I’m sure I heard that 🤨
LOL. Yes, it's true, many families are waiting and hoping their family members will get a "real job" rather than being house cleaners and maids. (Little do they know - this is very much, a real job.) 😝
@@AskAngelaBrown I’ve been cleaning for 20 plus years in aged care , hospital theatres and ICU. My point is you made a comment about it not being a real job, when in fact i don’t think professional cleaners get enough money for what we’re really worth in the work force . It’s most definitely a REAL job. PS: I brought my kids up on it.
This content is so discouraging and offers very little substance that answers the question of how to start a house cleaning business.
Thank you for sharing your perspective. While it may not have been a detailed how-to guide, it aimed to offer starting points and considerations for those mulling over a house cleaning business.
I have dozens of videos on this channel dedicated to launching and running a successful house cleaning business. They cover topics like licensing, pricing, marketing, and essential tasks. Here's one of many playlists I've got: ruclips.net/p/PLh1fKdNH3piRSrMeWSpn5WB2ngCmfOgmL&si=O4nXCW3uFynIv2nE
Thank you for this video ma’am!
You are so welcome! And thank you for watching the video. 🙂
I’m about to start my cleaning business
Yay! Good luck in your business journey!😊👍
