I Built My Biz from Scratch.

Now You Get the Shortcut I Never Had.


When I started, I had no system. I took every client because I thought I had to.

I drove all over town, said yes to everything, and still barely made money.


I figured it out the hard way.


Now, I help women skip the chaos and start with a plan.


This checklist is your first step.The Profit Ready Kit I’ll show you next.


That’s how you do it right — from day one.

⚠️What This Isn’t


❌ This isn’t a “dream board” guide

❌ This isn’t a PDF that tells you to “just start”

❌ This isn’t for people who want a logo

before they have a client



This is the shortcut to stop spinning your wheels

and start getting paid.

How to Start a Cleaning Business on a Shoestring Budget

January 18, 20254 min read

Starting a cleaning business with little to no money is absolutely possible. You don’t need a big investment or fancy equipment to get started; you just need the right mindset, a smart approach, and a willingness to take action. It’s about taking small, consistent steps and focusing on what you have rather than what you don’t.

Here’s how you can make it happen:

First, use what you already have. Take a look around your home—you likely have basic cleaning supplies like rags, microfiber cloths, an all-purpose cleaner, bleach or a bleach alternative, furniture polish, and other essentials.

These are all the basics you need to start small and take on your first clients. Don’t worry about having the “perfect” setup right away. As your business grows and you begin earning money, you can reinvest in better tools, and higher-quality supplies to suit your expanding needs.

Second, leverage free marketing opportunities. You don’t need a big budget to get your name out there and attract clients. Start by spreading the word to friends, family, and neighbors, and ask them to refer you to others. Word-of-mouth referrals are a powerful (and free!) way to build credibility.

Additionally, join local Facebook groups and introduce your services in a genuine, professional way. Participate in community conversations, engage with people, and build authentic connections.

Consider joining your local Chamber of Commerce and networking groups to broaden your reach. Optimize your personal social media profiles to showcase your new business, sharing updates, tips, and testimonials to attract potential clients.

Third, offer referral incentives. Happy clients are your best marketing tool, so why not reward them? When they recommend your services to others, offer a discount on their next cleaning or provide a free add-on service as a thank-you. This simple gesture can encourage more referrals, helping your business grow organically without costing you much.

Fourth, create simple yet professional flyers and business cards. You don’t have to spend a fortune on advertising materials. Use free tools like Canva to design your flyers and cards, and print a small batch to start.

Place them in local coffee shops, on community boards, or at salons and other high-traffic areas in your community. A well-placed flyer or card can grab attention and bring in clients who might not have found you otherwise.

Finally, focus on delivering exceptional service from day one. Impress your clients with your attention to detail, professionalism, and positive attitude. Going the extra mile to ensure a spotless home or a personalized touch can leave a lasting impression.

When clients are wowed by your work, they’re more likely to hire you again and recommend your services to others, creating a ripple effect that can help your business grow faster than you imagined.

Starting your cleaning business with the right tools and guidance can make all the difference. Many people start without knowing the best practices or how to avoid costly mistakes.

That’s why having someone who’s been in your shoes—a mentor who understands what it’s like to start from scratch—can be invaluable. They can help you navigate the challenges, set up your business for success, and attract the kind of loyal clients that make your efforts worthwhile.

Imagine where you could be just a few weeks from now: running your own profitable cleaning business, serving happy clients, and earning an income you’re proud of. With determination, the right guidance, and a willingness to take action, it’s absolutely within your reach.
