Cleaning Business Life
🎙 Cleaning Business Life
Cleaning Business Life is a podcast for cleaning business owners who want more than tactics — they want clarity.
Hosted by industry leaders Shannon Miller and Jamie Runco, this show explores the real decisions behind building a sustainable, profitable cleaning company: pricing, leadership, systems, boundaries, and growth without burnout.
This isn’t a beginner podcast.
It’s for owners and operators who are already in the business and ready to think differently about how they run it.
If you’re tired of noise, hustle culture, and surface-level advice — and you want grounded conversations rooted in real industry experience — you’re in the right place.

CBL-Episode #10 - You're Fired :(
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In the past if you were ever fired, it was usually because you were a bad hire, you did something wrong and you ended up not being a good fit.
Learn why firing yourself from your cleaning business can be a good thing.
I have been fired like twice in my whole working career and I have fired myself multiple times in my businesses. ( I currently have 3 Businesses.)
Often times when we fire ourselves, it gives us time to reflect what we need to do next in our businesses. And when we are referring to being fired it's code ( for having a time out or a mini break)
Some things to help you manage your business better is to Block out Periods of time that you can do things for just you and then just your business.
Delegate to others, if you can hire someone to help you with what needs to be accomplished.
If you can't afford to pay to hire. YOU can always trade and barter.
With larger projects get the end product up and work backwards or Take a large project and break down into smaller steps.
Not overworking!
This was not mentioned in the pod cast, but when you work too much, not only do you get burn out, it can make you sick!
