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.

Have you ever wondered how CleanCon came to life?
In this episode of Cleaning Business Life, Jamie Runco and Shannon Miller sit down with the four co-founders of CleanCon—Holly Moore, Molly Moran, Drew Larison, and Erin Larison—to share the story behind one of the most exciting movements happening in the residential cleaning industry today.
This isn't simply a conversation about a conference. It's a conversation about leadership, collaboration over competition, and building a community where cleaning business owners can learn, grow, and succeed together.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The story behind CleanCon
- Why collaboration beats competition
- Lessons learned from launching a sold-out event
- Building community instead of cliques
- Leadership, vision, and growing one step at a time
- Why investing in yourself changes everything
- Where the residential cleaning industry is headed
One of the highlights of this conversation is discussing what may be the next evolution of the cleaning industry. For years, many business owners had to figure everything out on their own. Today, there are more opportunities than ever to learn from experienced professionals, build meaningful relationships, and create businesses that provide freedom, profitability, and long-term legacy.
Whether you're launching your first cleaning company or leading a multi-million-dollar operation, this episode offers valuable insight into the power of community and the importance of investing in yourself as a business owner.
