Because you're never too old to do what you love — and you're never too experienced to learn something new!
I'm 75 years old, and I'm heading to Virginia to do something I absolutely love — teaching professional house cleaners how to clean smarter, faster, and better!
After visiting more than 60 cleaning companies over the years, I'm still excited (and a little nervous!) about walking into a new office.
This week, I'm taking you behind the scenes to show you what really happens when I help a cleaning company retrain its staff. From evaluating cleaners to teaching new techniques, you'll get to see the process firsthand.
Follow along for the adventure...

💰 What's the difference between $30-an-hour cleaning and $70-an-hour cleaning? Watch these two dusting demonstrations. Same task. Two very different levels of quality!
If you're a residential cleaning business owner who wants to charge premium prices, ask yourself: Does your cleaning quality align with your prices you want to charge? You can't expect customers to pay premium rates for mediocre cleaning.
The secret isn't just raising your prices. It's raising your standards through better employee training.
At Clean Smart Academy, we help residential cleaning companies train their employees to clean professionally, consistently, and efficiently.

I'm honored to have been selected as a panelist for the "Lead Your People" leadership discussion at CleanCon this September in Austin, Texas.

Preparing for that panel has me thinking about what great leadership really looks like. In my experience, it comes down to two things: mentoring and teaching.

In this live video, I'll share why I believe your cleaners should never stop learning, why training should be enjoyable, and how creating future trainers within your own company can improve retention, build stronger teams, and make your business easier to run.

I'd love to hear your thoughts. What do you think is the most important quality of a great leader?

Process vs. procedure — not the same thing.
📋 Process = the ORDER things get done
🧽 Procedure = exactly HOW each step is cleaned
You need both. ✨

Why is the toilet cleaned almost last?
Because it's the germiest surface in the room. Clean it early and you spread germs everywhere you touch next.
Toilet, then floors. Order protects quality. ✨

The biggest mistake new cleaners make?
They clean whatever they notice first — instead of following a process.
Reacting isn't cleaning. Follow the process, every time. ✨
