| 6/22/26 | ![]() Every Hiring Decision Ranked — From First Hire To Cleaner #14 | Ep 119 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge---- https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram Most cleaning business owners wait until they're slammed to start looking for help. That's why they stay stuck. @Katie Manzanares and I are going live to rank every hiring decision — from your first cleaner to cleaner #14. We're covering: When to hire your first cleaner (and why waiting is killing your growth) The only platform that gives you applicants at scale Why in-person interviews waste everyone's time What to actually teach during training week The incentive structure that builds real retention The exact number of cleaners to hit a million dollars In 2022, Katie and I had dinner with Alex and Leila Hormozi in Vegas. Alex told us we weren't in the cleaning business — we were in the recruiting and training business. Leila told us to build a recruiting funnel the same way we built our marketing funnel. One year later we crossed a million dollars. | 34m 02s | ||||||
| 6/15/26 | ![]() From Poor Lead Flow To Leads Everyday (Every Marketing Decision Ranked) | Ep 118 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge---- https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram 5 years ago @Katie Manzanares and I were lying on the floor of a hotel room at the Wynn in Las Vegas. We had just paid $10k for a business retreat. We were dreaming of freedom. And somewhere in that hotel room — we decided to start a cleaning business. I had the marketing funnel built before we even left Vegas. 5 years later, $350k in marketing spend, and ~5,000 clients served — I've learned exactly which marketing decisions move the needle and which ones are a complete waste of time and money. TodayI'm ranking every single one of them. From free strategies to get your first 10 clients, to the paid plays that scale you to $83k/month — I'm putting them all in tiers so you know exactly where to focus first. Free marketing strategies — ranked from worst to best Paid strategies to grow to $83k/month Where your first marketing dollar should go The one metric that actually matters in paid marketing How lifetime value changes every decision | 56m 32s | ||||||
| 6/8/26 | ![]() Every Sales Decision Ranked — From Worst to Best | Ep 117 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge---- https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram Do you know how much it costs every time a prospect says no? I asked @Katie Manzanares this recently. She said: "Nothing?" "$1,700." I replied. Between all 3 locations we've served just under 5,000 clients. Average clean is $250. Clients average 7 cleans. $250 x 7 = $1,700 lifetime value. Every prospect that doesn't book — $1,700 gone. Every 5 that don't book — $10,000 gone. I spent years avoiding sales. I was afraid of rejection, afraid of not having all the answers. I left money on the table for years. What changed everything? Realizing the goal isn't to sell people. It's to serve them. I'm ranking every sales decision from worst to best to build a million dollar cleaning business. -Pricing. -Quoting tools. -What to actually sell on. -Why prospects really don't book. -The biggest mistakes on quote calls. None of this costs money to implement. Just a decision. | 54m 19s | ||||||
| 6/1/26 | ![]() A Million Dollar Home Cleaning Business- Every Decision Ranked | Ep 116 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge---- https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram Last month our cleaning business did $294,000. 🤯 But within the last 12 days — 3 of our 6 office staff quit. Our GM of 3 years. Gone. 1,800 Google reviews. Vanished overnight. @Katie Manzanares was in Japan and I felt alone on an island. I thought we might be headed back to $0. Here's what I realized sitting in that loneliness. What got us HERE is not going to get us THERE. It's like a high school student trying to study like they're still in junior high. The speed of the game gets faster. Our systems needed an upgrade. Today on the Road To A Million call, Katie & I are ranking every decision that builds a million dollar cleaning business from $0.— The exact model that took us from $0 to $294k/month— The model we are swiching to to get us to $500K/month P.S. Katie flew home 5 days early from a trip she planned for a year and paid $1,000 to change her flights. That's how serious this call is. | 58m 43s | ||||||
| 5/25/26 | ![]() I Was Scared to Hire One Cleaner. Then I Hired 200. | Ep 115 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram 3 months into starting our Mesa location we were doing $20,000/month. We had 5 cleaners. I was doing everything in the office: scheduling, selling & hiring. One week I remember offering 2 candidates the job... I was excited about them. I had one more interview that week. She was fine. But nothing that got me excited. I asked @Katie Manzanares for advice. She said: "Hire her." I went from excited to terrified. How was I going to fill 3 cleaners schedules at one time? It was going to be expensive to train 3 people at one time!! Then Katie reminded me... "She probably wont show up anyway." I scheduled an onboarding for 3 cleaners. The 2 candidates I was excited about... never showed up. The one I wasn't excited about.. I got excited that she showed up to onboarding. Today, that cleaner is still with us. Our longest tenured cleaner. Never called out once. That one decision taught me the fear of hiring the wrong person almost cost me building the right business. It almost cost me a million dollar business. All because of fear. | 38m 50s | ||||||
| 5/18/26 | ![]() 10 Years to 20k/Month. 3 Years to 100k/Month. Here's What Changed | Ep 114 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram @Jessica Van Hoffen is co-hosting the Road To A Million call with me. Some of you might know Jessicas story... 10 years into her cleaning business, she was still stuck under 20k/month. But in the last 3 years, she grew it to over 100k/month. Her team runs the business without her physical prescence. This allowed her to move her family from Canada to Arizona. 🤯 Today, I am going to press her on what changed. What led to the explosive growth? What mistakes did she make along the way? What advice she has for cleaning businesses on the way to 83k/month. If you have felt like you need some inspiration… high probability you will benefit from this call. | 49m 24s | ||||||
| 5/11/26 | ![]() $1,000,000 in 4 Months… But The Profit Was Shocking 😬 | Ep 113 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram 12 years ago I became a business owner. 3 months later I met @Katie Manzanares For 3 years, Katie watched me run into the same wall — stuck below $5,000/month in revenue. Today our cleaning business makes more than $5,000 a day. And today on the Road To a Million call, Katie & I are revealing our profit & loss statements over the past 4 months. Revenues + Profits.

Essentially — a plan for what happens when we die. It got me thinking about lifecycles. Everything starts, grows, and eventually dies. Businesses are no different.

You'll leave knowing: — Where you are — Why you're stuck — And exactly what to do next | 42m 30s | ||||||
| 4/27/26 | ![]() I Spent $4,644 on Ads Last Week. Here's How It Generated $36,588. | Ep 111 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram I own a home cleaning business and I've spent over $200,000 on paid advertising over the last 2 years figuring out what actually works. Last week alone, we spent $4,644 on marketing and generated $36,588 in initial cleans. That's the system I'm breaking down live today. Click Here To JoinI didn't start out knowing any of this. When I first ran Facebook Ads, I was throwing money at the wall. No real offer. No follow-up process. No idea what to do with a lead even when I got one.

Here's what we're covering:→ The exact offer, creative & copy framework behind last week's numbers→ The two ways to capture leads on Facebook (and which to start with)→ How to use AI to create unlimited fresh ads without burning out→ The 3 numbers that tell you if your ads are actually working→ How to get this entire system installed in your business in 30 days | 43m 58s | ||||||

| 4/13/26 | ![]() I Worked 10,000 Hours… and Was Still Stuck at $5K/Month | Ep 109 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram Malcolm Gladwell says 10,000 hours creates mastery. I put in my 10,000 hours. It didn't work. And I started looking around at business owners who had been grinding for 5, 10, 20+ years… and I wouldn't have traded places with a single one of them. But then I watched @Julia Callahan go from $0 → $83,000/month in 14 months. Zero clients. Zero experience. I asked myself… what's the difference?

| 4/6/26 | ![]() Why 18 Cleaners Quitting At One Time Helped Me Build A $3M Cleaning Business | Ep 108 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram I'm sharing how I built a home cleaning business from scratch to over $3M/year in revenue and $400K+ in profit across 3 locations. But before that happened... we had 4 mass cleaner exoduses. In one of those mass exodudes... we lost 18 cleaners in 90 days.😪 We lost $64,000 in revenue & lost $8,000 in a single month. 😱 Today I'm breaking down who's fault it was. (not who you think it is) 🫵 And most importantly what we changed to grow bigger from each one. If you run a cleaning business and are tired of: Cleaners quitting without warning Walking on eggshells to avoid confrontation Covering jobs yourself because someone called out again | 45m 40s | ||||||
| 3/30/26 | ![]() Hard Work Got You Here — Here's What Gets You To A Million | Ep 107 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram My name is Logan Manzanares — my wife @Katie Manzanares and I built a $3M cleaning business from scratch. Starting with zero experience in the cleaning industry. And today at 4PM EST I'm going live to share the 3 problems that kept me broke for years — and exactly what it took to break through them. Here's what you can expect on this call: — Why hard work alone will never get you to a million dollars — The Tax your business is paying every single month without you knowing it — The framework I used to go from $5k/month to a million dollar business This isn't theory. Eight cleaning businesses inside our mentorship crossed a million dollars in 2025 using this exact system. And the honest truth? They weren't more talented than you. They weren't working harder than you. They just stopped avoiding the things that were keeping them stuck. Today I'm going to show you exactly what those things are. | 50m 51s | ||||||
| 3/23/26 | ![]() Partnership Test | Ep 106 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram Today, @Katie Manzanares and I are telling the story that almost ended our relationship. And the framework we built from it over the last decade. We call it The Partnership Test. The confrontations that strengthened our marriage are the same confrontations that determine the strength of your business. Because the person you are at home is the one who shows up to work. | 40m 02s | ||||||
| 3/16/26 | ![]() The Notebook Idea That Took Two Years To Say Yes To | Ep 105 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram Two years ago I wrote an idea in my notebook. I didn't tell anyone about it. It felt too big. Too risky. Too much to ask. So I closed the notebook… and went back to work. But the idea never went away. It showed up again in 2024. I closed the notebook again. Then January 1st, 2026… it showed up again. This time I finally said yes. A little context on who I am — My wife @Katie Manzanares and I own three home cleaning businesses across the US. Combined they did $2.8 million in revenue last year. I also coach home cleaning business owners across North America on how to grow and scale. And today I am making the biggest announcement we have ever made. For the first time, I'm going to tell the full story. What the idea was. Why it took two years to say yes. And what happened when I finally made the ask. When you hear this story, you're going to understand something about building a business that most cleaning owners never figure out. | 30m 24s | ||||||
| 3/9/26 | ![]() You’re Either the Multiplier — Or the Bottleneck | Ep 104 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram You don't build a million-dollar cleaning business by learning another tactic. You build it by removing whatever's capping you. If you're under $500k/per year right now, there's a reason. And I'd bet money it's not your pricing. Not your ads. Not your hiring funnel. This afternoon I'm breaking down two real case studies — same market, same opportunity, same starting point. Two people. Two decisions. Two completely different lives. One scaled past the ceiling. One is still standing under it. The difference had nothing to do with strategy. I'll show you exactly what it was — and how to tell which owner you're currently being. If you're sitting at $100k, $500k, or hovering near $800k wondering why the breakthrough never comes — this call is the answer to that question. Drop 💪 if you are coming. Or scroll past. But if you do — stop telling yourself you're serious about seven figures. Serious people show up. | 42m 24s | ||||||
| 3/2/26 | ![]() A Players Don't Chase Money. They Chase Vision. | Ep 103 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogram I'm not going to tell you everything we're covering. But I will tell you this… Last week we did something most cleaning business owners would call stupid. And what happened exposed the single biggest reason most owners never break through — no matter how hard they work, how many systems they build, or how many raises they give. If you've ever felt like you're dragging your business uphill alone… If your team doesn't seem to care as much as you do… If you keep losing good people and can't figure out why… You need to be on this call. Most cleaning business owners are one insight away from completely changing how their business runs — they just don't know what they don't know yet. Today we're pulling back the curtain and showing you exactly what a real million dollar cleaning business looks like on the inside. Not theory. Not fluff. What we're actually building — right now — in our own business. This is the kind of call that makes you realize why staying small feels so hard… and what to do about it. | 56m 10s | ||||||

| 1/19/26 | ![]() The Decision That Separates $100K Operators From $1M Owners | Ep 97 | Check out the 30 Day Install Challenge https://homecleaningcoaching.com/30dayprogramThe Decision That Separates $100K Operators From $1M Owners Welcome to the Road to a Million, Week 97! This episode dives into the single most important factor that separates $100K business operators from $1M business owners: The Courage to Commit. We break down the two critical definitions you must live by: Courage: Acting with the presence of fear. Commitment: The elimination of all other options—focusing solely on the goal of building a million-dollar business. In this powerful call, we share the personal and business journey that led to this realization. Our Path to a Million We pull back the curtain on the sacrifices and decisions that allowed us to grow our business from $6,700 in our first three months to $1.1 Million in 2023, and ultimately reaching $2.8 Million in total revenue last year. Embracing the Fear: Hear the story of growing up in a racing family, realizing a passion requires capital, and overcoming the youthful fear of vulnerability to chase a business dream. The Power of Partnership: The critical decision to seek out a partner for stability to channel creative drive and move away from chasing distractions. The Hardest Move: The true cost of our commitment, including uprooting our family to expand the business to a second location, and how it was essential for the next level of growth. Commitment Pays Off: We reveal that our second location was not profitable for the first 17 months, showing what long-term commitment looks like before it rewards you. Ultimately, we discovered that the key pivot was realizing we weren't just in the cleaning business, but in the Five-Star Experience business. This shift in focus changed everything. Every breakthrough requires Fear, Decision, Commitment, and Time. If you are willing to commit to the goal, this episode will provide the clarity to eliminate all other options and build the business you truly desire. | 1h 09m 34s | ||||||
