Brandon Downer: How Pink's Window Cleaning Franchise Turned Home Services Into Hospitality | The Franchise Insiders Podcast

Discover how Brandon Downer built Pink's Window Cleaning from a neighborhood observation into a thriving home services franchise that treats customers like guests and technicians like hospitality professionals.

From Layoffs to Launching a Home Service Franchise

After two layoffs, Brandon Downer and his partner Carter spotted an opportunity during a neighborhood walk: local service trucks everywhere, but zero customer experience. They launched Pink's Window Cleaning with a bold premise—apply hospitality principles to blue-collar work.

Why Most Window Cleaning Services Fail Customers (And How Pink's Solves It)

Homeowners face recurring problems: no-shows, handwritten quotes, surprise pricing, and crews that don't respect their property. Pink's redesigned the entire experience: online scheduling, upfront pricing, card-on-file payments, branded uniforms, and a promise to leave every property better than they found it.

The Pink's Franchise Playbook: Culture, Systems, and Scalability

Learn why Pink's hires baristas and hospitality workers (not just window cleaners), how technology drives trust and recurring revenue, and why a memorable brand color beats a generic business name. Brandon shares the franchise growth strategy: launch timing by market seasonality, building routes that compound, and creating exit opportunities for owners.
