We offer the most desirable cleaning accounts.
Successful businesses have to choose their accounts carefully as well. With our StarBuilder™ Account Profiling Program, we provide our franchise owners with the most desirable cleaning accounts based on size, hours of operation, location, industry and more. No restaurants. No health clubs or retail stores. We focus on office buildings to help you keep your schedule and workload consistent, attract quality employees and keep your customers happy.
Our Rising Star™ Management Program provides a clear path for advancement through our three franchise options:
- The Technician
Build trust. Through our SmartStart™ Program, you can start your own part-time cleaning business while keeping the security and income of your current job. The initial investment is only a fraction of the cost of other cleaning franchises – and it’s the only part-time program in the industry.
- The Onsite Manager
Build experience. When you’re ready, we’ll help you transition from the Technician Franchise into full-time business ownership. You’ll begin managing larger accounts, as well as a team of cleaning employees, while pitching in yourself when needed. .
- Corporate
Build wealth. If you’ve developed the expertise and resources to manage larger tenant office buildings and small corporate headquarters, we’ll welcome you to our Corporate program. It’s the only large building franchise in the industry, and it offers the highest average gross revenue of any cleaning franchise.
