The Cleaning Journey

Want to work less and grow your cleaning business faster? In this episode, Misa sits down with Amy Sardone (Speed Cleaning) to unpack the simple systems that take you from owner‑operator to CEO—without sacrificing quality. We cover the 5‑day training system, how to "clone yourself" with measurable SOPs, and why non‑toxic, pro‑grade products help you protect your team, delight clients, and scale profitably. How Her Mom Built a Mop-Free Millionaire Cleaning Business. You'll learn practical cleaning business tips: building a training pipeline, setting clear expectations, leading your team, prioritizing the right bottlenecks, structuring your week for growth (meetings in one day, inbox zero), and keeping clients for life. We also talk commercial cleaning strategies, eco-friendly concentrates (hello, lower costs + fewer plastic bottles), and how to model the best to hit mop‑free millionaire levels. If you're serious about cleaning company growth, pricing cleaning services for profit, landing better clients, and installing systems that scale, this conversation is your roadmap.

Ever dreamt of running your cleaning business from the beach while your team and clients rave about your service? Are you curious about how to Run Your Cleaning Business Remotely?

Jessica Agate, owner of The Cleaning Diva LLC, reveals how she went from chaotic paper schedules and "doing it all" to leading a thriving cleaning company remotely. She shares why establishing core values (practice positivity, value relationships, have fun, be productive, and make money) transformed her hiring process, improved client retention, and helped her trust her team of "divas" to deliver excellence in New Jersey while she works from Florida.

In this interview, you'll learn how to let go of control, overcome the belief that "nobody cleans like me," and build a team culture that loves coming to work. Jessica talks about finding clients on Craigslist, using Jobber and other apps to streamline operations, setting up systems for recruiting and training, running weekly Zoom meetings, handling times when multiple employees quit, and shifting her mindset to stay positive and solution‑oriented. Whether you're just starting or ready to scale, her story proves that remote management and sustainable growth are possible with the right systems and coaching.
