My Window Cleaning Business Grew 958% — Here’s What Changed

Last year, my window cleaning business was barely getting traction. I had moved into a new market, my Google Business Profile got suspended, leads were almost nonexistent, and the pressure of providing for my family felt very real. Fast forward to this year, and the business is up 958% year over year. We’re already over $100k on the year, leads are coming in consistently, and the problems I’m facing now are completely different. In this episode, I’m breaking down what changed: the lead flow, the labor bottleneck, the need for better training, how I’m thinking about quality control, why I’m tightening up the finances, and what I’m outsourcing as the business grows. Growth is a good problem to have, but it still exposes the weak spots in your business. If you’re starting or growing a window cleaning business, this episode will give you a real look at what happens when things finally start working — and what you need to build next.

Why You HAVE to Prioritize Rest in Your Window Cleaning Business

Burnout is real in the window cleaning industry. Long days, physical labor, constant estimates, employee issues, family responsibilities, and the pressure of running a business can leave you feeling completely drained. In this episode of Clean for Profit, I talk about the importance of rest as a business owner and why nobody is going to prioritize it for you. We cover practical ways to find rest even during busy seasons, how to protect your mental bandwidth, and why being constantly “on” will eventually catch up to you. I also talk about: * Finding restful moments even when life is chaotic * Blocking distractions and phone addiction * The importance of being present with your family * Burnout in home service businesses Whether you’re running a window cleaning business, pressure washing company, or any home service business, this episode is for the owner who’s been grinding nonstop and feeling it. #windowcleaning #smallbusiness #entrepreneur #homebusiness #cleanforprofit

I Had to Fire an Employee for the First Time

In this episode of the Clean for Profit podcast, I talk about something every growing business owner eventually faces: personnel problems and hard leadership decisions. Last week, I had to fire an employee for the first time. We dive into what led up to it, what I learned from it, and how growth in business starts changing the kinds of problems you deal with. When you go from being “just a guy cleaning windows” to leading a real team, the game changes fast. Standards matter more. Communication matters more. Culture matters more. And avoiding hard conversations can hurt everyone involved. I also share updates on Sierra Window Cleaning, the growth we’ve been experiencing, and the reality of building systems, managing people, and trying to scale without losing your mind in the middle of busy season. If you’re growing a home service business, building a team, or stepping into leadership for the first time, this one will probably hit home.
