How to Choose a Commercial Cleaning Franchise

Over the past 18+ months, the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly disrupted both our personal and professional lives. Suddenly, our daily routines have had to include wearing face coverings, frequent hand washing, and social distancing. Now, as society and communities continue to emerge from the pandemic and we transition to a post-COVID society, many are returning to the workplace. And while this “re-entry” to the business and corporate environment may be a welcome change, it also requires that we adjust to keeping employees and customers safe, especially as new workplace health updates and guidelines surface on an almost daily basis. Fortunately, it’s possible to minimize the spread of COVID-19 and help employees safely return to the workplace with professional sanitization and cleaning services. Not surprisingly, this concern over maintaining a clean workplace environment has sparked a trend in those interested in owning a commercial cleaning franchise. Which leads us to an important question: how do you choose a commercial cleaning franchise?

Look for a commercial cleaning services franchise that provides multiple services.

That’s because many commercial cleaning franchisers offer their own training and support for those who have an entrepreneurial mindset, are willing to work hard, and possess a desire to succeed. In fact, the majority of AdvantaClean franchisors had no prior experience in the commercial or residential cleaning industry. Seek out those commercial cleaning franchisors that emphasize a combination of classroom training and hands-on training. Key aspects to look for in franchisee training include:
