How to: Hire 2 New Cleaners in 72 Hours
If you want financial and time freedom, you are never going to get there by cleaning every single house with your own two hands. You will need to find amazing cleaners who do the work FOR you...while you focus on being a CEO and building the business. For anyone who is in the hiring process right now...have you found that this rule of 100 is true? @Eli Di @John Chang @Nick Metcalf Where if you get 100 applications for your job post - 50 of them have no cleaning experience whatsoever - Out of the 50 left, 30 of them are unqualified - Out of the 20 left, 10 of them have poor communication skills Has this been true for you guys??

Yeah honestly that rule feels pretty spot on. You get a ton of applications but only a few are actually solid. I’ve learned it’s just part of the process — you gotta sort through the noise to find the 2 or 3 that are actually a good fit.

Got a test clean tomorrow at 2 - looks promising so far. If all goes well, planning to onboard Monday.
Interviewing Cleaners Discussion
Hi everyone, I will soon be interviewing cleaners for the first time and I know a couple members in here are also in the process of approaching that milestone as well specifically, @Eli Di and @John Chang. I thought I’d start a thread to share our experiences and learn from each other. My plan of action: -Hire 2 experienced solo cleaners and one team (an established company that has a decent amount of good reviews but ultimately suffers from poor marketing/sales skills. -Use Daniel’s advice and create an Indeed ad, weeding out people with less than 2 years of professional residential cleaning experience. -Also, browse Facebook and Nextdoor for cleaners that have good reviews. I will cold call them asking if they sr looking for more jobs and set them up with a video interview if I think they are a good fit. Initial thoughts: I feel confident going through this process and have no problem interviewing people. There’s a bit of “imposter syndrome” since I’m not a cleaner and I’m sure they will be wondering how this guy randomly started a business that is getting more leads than they have when they’ve been doing this for years. That isn’t a deterrent for me but I am aware that they may be skeptical about me. At the end of the day I think they can look past that if I keep giving them work and pricing it fairly for them. I will update this as I continue the process.

@Nick Metcalf To be honest, I was nervous as hell going into it. First time interviewing cleaners and I’ve never cleaned professionally myself, so there was definitely some imposter syndrome creeping in. I had 3 candidates scheduled. One didn’t even show up to the call — honestly, bullet dodged.• One showed up late and didn’t really impress me. Answers were surface-level and vague.• The third candidate showed up early. That immediately stood out. Her answers were detailed, structured, and confident. When I asked her to walk me through cleaning processes, she was clear and specific. I could tell she actually knew what she was talking about. What was interesting — she actually used to run her own cleaning business. She failed not because she couldn’t clean, but because she didn’t know how to bring in customers. She did ask me directly whether I had ever cleaned professionally. I told her straight up:“I’ve never cleaned a house professionally, but I understand operations and customer acquisition. I know how to bring clients in consistently. I can be that person for you.” She didn’t care that I wasn’t a cleaner. She cared that I could bring her more work. That was a big realization for me — most experienced cleaners don’t want to do marketing and sales. They just want steady jobs and fair pay. So if anyone’s worried about imposter syndrome because you haven’t cleaned before — I wouldn’t stress it. As long as you can provide consistent work and operate professionally, that’s what matters. 💪
🚀 Shoutout to John 🚀
I want to give a huge shoutout to John, who started his cleaning business from absolute zero on January 20th. That was 20 days ago. Today, he’s about one week away from landing his very first customer. I also want to congratulate John on upgrading to the VIP program. He now has Steps 6–10 unlocked plus one-on-one coaching, accountability, and private time to break down his business and make sure he’s building this the right way from the start. Super proud of the progress you’ve made in such a short time, John. Keep going. That first customer is right around the corner 👊
