### Inspection Checklist (Score 1-5 per area)

Floors — vacuumed/mopped, edges, corners
Surfaces — dusted, wiped, streak-free
Restrooms — sanitized, restocked, mirrors, fixtures
Trash — emptied, liners replaced, area clean
Windows/glass — fingerprints, smudges, sills
Kitchen/break room — appliances, sink, counters
Overall appearance — clutter, odor, presentation

Target: 4.5+ average. Below 4.0 = re-clean required.

### Client Retention Metrics

Satisfaction survey after first 3 cleans, then quarterly
90-day retention target: 85%+
Annual retention target: 70%+ (residential), 85%+ (commercial)
Complaint resolution: respond within 2 hours, re-clean within 24 hours

### Stage 1: Solo Operator ($0-$80K/year)

15-20 recurring residential clients = $4K-$6K/month
Zero employees, minimal overhead
Focus: reviews, referrals, Google Business Profile
Reinvest 20% into marketing

### Stage 2: First Crew ($80K-$250K/year)

Hire 2-3 cleaners, train to your standard
Add 1-2 commercial contracts for stable base revenue
Systems: scheduling software, checklists, supply tracking
You stop cleaning, start managing and selling

### Stage 3: Multi-Crew ($250K-$1M/year)

3-5 crews, dedicated office manager
Mix: 60% commercial / 40% residential (commercial = predictable)
Fleet: branded vehicles (rolling billboards)
Bid on larger contracts: schools, medical, property management companies

### Stage 4: Scale ($1M+/year)

Operations manager runs day-to-day
Focus: sales, key accounts, strategic partnerships
Consider franchise model or territory licensing
Target: 15-25% net profit margin at scale

### KPIs to Track

Revenue per labor hour (target: $45-$65)
Client retention rate (target: 80%+)
Complaint rate (target: <2% of jobs)
Employee turnover (target: <100% annually — half the industry avg is a win)
Supply cost as % of revenue (target: <6%)
Close rate on bids (target: 30-40% residential, 20-30% commercial)
Average job value (track monthly, push upward)
Drive time as % of work time (target: <20%)
Rebooking rate — residential (target: 70%+ rebook after first clean)
Revenue per client per year (target: $2,400+ residential, $12,000+ commercial)

### Common Mistakes

Pricing too low to "get clients" — race to bottom kills margins
No written contracts for commercial — verbal agreements = disputes
Skipping insurance — one slip-and-fall lawsuit ends the business
Not tracking supply costs — death by a thousand small purchases
Hiring without background checks — you're in people's homes
No quality inspection system — problems compound silently
Over-relying on residential — commercial contracts are the stability backbone
Ignoring employee retention — constant retraining is the hidden cost killer
