CBL Episode #132-Pt. 1-Stepping Out: How to Train Your Trainer


Listen Later

This podcast is powered by Klean Freaks University.com — where real cleaners build real empires. From mop buckets to million-dollar systems, we teach you how to clean smarter, lead stronger, and scale faster.

Ready to step away from daily cleaning but worried about maintaining your standards? This episode kicks off our five-part series on "Training Your Trainer" - the critical bridge between working IN your business and working ON it.

Jamie shares her current experience implementing these systems in real-time, offering a transparent look at the challenges and successes of this transition. We explore how to identify your ideal trainer candidate (hint: they're your absolute best cleaning tech), establish clear training structures, and create accountability systems that maintain your quality standards even when you're not present.

The conversation dives deep into practical considerations: the five-day training process for new hires, setting appropriate boundaries between training and management roles, implementing working interviews to evaluate potential employees, and navigating the messy but necessary process of building a team. We address common pitfalls like assuming new hires know company policies without explicit training, and share stories of what happens when expectations aren't clearly communicated.

Whether you're just hiring your first employee or looking to scale further by removing yourself from daily operations, this episode provides actionable guidance for cleaning business owners ready to take their company to the next level. This growth phase may feel uncomfortable, but as Jamie demonstrates, persisting through the awkward transitions ultimately creates the freedom and business model you've been working toward.
