From Prime Time to Clean Time: Shari Cedar’s Commercial Cleaning Journey


Listen Later

Behind every successful company is a story of courage, change, and purpose. This month on The Business of Cleaning podcast, we welcome an extraordinary guest whose career path took a dramatic-and inspiring-turn.

Shari Cedar began her professional journey in the fast-paced world of television, where she served as an Executive Producer, including work on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Despite the excitement and accolades of the entertainment industry, Shari sought something more permanent and personal-something that could serve her family long-term.

That moment of reflection led Shari and her husband to launch AK Building Services, a commercial cleaning company that has grown to employ over 800 people and serve clients across a broad range of industries. As CEO and Owner, Shari has brought her creativity, leadership skills, and passion for excellence into an industry where those qualities are often overlooked but deeply needed.

A Conversation on Growth, Leadership, and Legacy

In this episode titled "From Prime Time to Clean Time: Shari Cedar’s Journey in Commercial Cleaning", we sit down with Shari to explore:

  • The challenges and triumphs of starting and scaling a cleaning company from the ground up
  • Leadership insights gained from managing large teams and navigating a fast-growing operation
  • Personal growth milestones as a business owner and industry leader
  • The dynamic experience of building a business alongside her spouse
  • And much more

Shari’s story is not only about changing careers-it’s about redefining success, leading with integrity, and leaving a lasting impact in an essential industry.
