If you’re like most people thinking about starting a cleaning business, you’re probably eager to get started and begin making money right away. After all, who wouldn’t want quick results and extra cash rolling in?

The great news is that it’s absolutely possible! But here’s the thing: while diving in might feel like the fastest route, lasting success doesn’t come from cutting corners or skipping steps. It comes from doing things the right way—starting with a strong foundation for your business.

Let me explain why this is so important by sharing a bit of my own journey. When I first decided to start my cleaning business, I thought it would be simple. I figured, “What’s there to know about cleaning a house? I’ll grab some supplies, register my business, put up a few flyers, and start getting clients. Easy peasy!”

And in some ways, that plan worked. I got clients, and my business started to grow. But here’s what I didn’t expect: I was working harder than ever and still not making the kind of money I thought I would. I was constantly hustling, trying to stay afloat, and honestly, it was exhausting. I knew something was missing, but I didn’t know what.

What I came to realize is this: building a successful business isn’t just about getting clients. It’s about getting the right clients, setting up systems that work, and having a plan that ensures you’re not just busy—you’re profitable. I didn’t have clear policies in place, my pricing wasn’t where it needed to be, and I lacked the systems to make my business run smoothly. Because I skipped these critical steps, I found myself stuck in a cycle of working harder, not smarter.

Honestly, it almost cost me my business.

That’s when I made the decision to go back and fix the cracks in my foundation. I took the time to set up clear policies, create pricing structures that actually made me money, and develop systems that allowed me to work efficiently. And let me tell you—the difference was night and day.

I started attracting clients who valued my services, respected my policies, and were happy to pay what I was worth. I began working less but making more money. And for the first time, I felt the freedom I had always dreamed of when I started my business. I could take time off, enjoy my life, and still have a thriving business that supported me.

This is what I want for you, too. I know how tempting it is to rush into things, but trust me—taking the time to build a solid foundation is the fastest way to get where you want to be. When you do it right from the beginning, everything else falls into place. You’ll have clients you enjoy working with, systems that save you time, and the freedom to live life on your terms.
