What we look for in franchisees
There is no single background that makes a good Cleancorp franchisee. Our network includes people who came from trades, hospitality, office work and full-time parenting. What tends to matter more is the way someone approaches the work. Over the years we have noticed some common qualities in the franchisees who do well, and they are worth thinking about before you enquire.
- You take pride in doing a job properly.
Our reputation is built on customers trusting that the work will be done to a consistent standard every time. Franchisees who care about the details tend to keep their customers longer and earn more referrals. - You are reliable and organised.
Customers expect their premises to be cleaned on schedule, and good record-keeping keeps your invoicing accurate and your business running smoothly. People who turn up when they say they will, and who stay on top of the admin, find the day-to-day much easier. - You communicate well.
A good command of written and spoken English helps you understand your customers, keep clear records and stay in touch with the support office. It also makes training more straightforward.
- You want to build something of your own.
A Cleancorp franchise rewards people who treat it as their business. Those who look after their customers, ask for support when they need it and look for ways to grow tend to go furthest. - You are happy to follow a proven system.
Cleancorp gives you tested processes for cleaning, safety, invoicing and customer care. The franchisees who get the most from the model are the ones who use the system as it is designed rather than working around it. - You are ready to commit.
Owning a business takes effort, especially in the early months while you settle in. Franchisees who go in with realistic expectations and a willingness to put in the work get the best results from the guaranteed income and support behind them.
If this sounds like you, we would like to hear from you. No cleaning experience is required, since that is what the training covers.
