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.

So the premise behind the 70 percent clutter rule is that it's up to you to decide if you are going to clean an area or room of a home. If you come to a room and it's more that 70 percent clutter rule. So please remember to say to the Client hey I didn't clean... we skipped.
