Mike Andes explains how to scale a cleaning business without burning out on quality checks. Train new cleaners with video systems and structured onboarding, then use compensation models like 65% revenue splits to make them care about doing it right the first time.
65% of revenue
What does a good cleaning look like? We have the checklist, but how do we get someone to there? Of course everyone's going to go fast. We're gonna have problems. And again, we've slapped another band aid on there, which is. We will go back and check every house. Yeah. We're just not gonna be able. That's just not gonna. We're not gonna be able to scale that. And there's no value to a buyer. Right. Right now you're very much leaning on. You get hired. We then do on the job training to make sure you do a good job. Yeah. It needs to be. We onboard you. We teach you what an instant clean is. And then here's the video train to make sure you're up to that standard. The only way it's going to work is we have the next part, which is systems and training for quality control. Your compensation model needs to incentivize quality. Right. Do I like giving away 65% of revenue anytime? No. But if they're managing all their own stuff, they're managing their. Their, their timing. Like the only thing you're really doing is getting the customer connecting with the labor and managing billing so they don't have to think about that. Right. And communication with the customer directly because those are the people you're actually concerned about potentially with. 1099 is I'm taking away your customer. Yeah. But you can incentivize them so strongly because they're so good at their job. Yeah. That you're not hardly doing anything. If they're not making mistakes, you're making good money.
