Invest in Yourself With a Low Risk, High Revenue Opportunity

Investing in Our Franchise

An Opportunity for Any Entrepreneur

Every The Cleaning Authority franchisee comes from a different background and has varying financial experience. They also have different levels of expertise and reasons for starting their own business. However, they share some characteristics that are critical to being a successful business owner.

All our home cleaning franchise owners:

  • Recognize the value of our time-tested system and reliable business model
  • Focus on growing their company by working on their business’s operations—they’re not out cleaning houses
  • Commit to delivering a premium customer service experience
  • Develop a professional team that confidently and positively represents the company

Veterans Incentives from The Cleaning Authority

We’re proud members of the International Franchise Association (“IFA”) and participate in the IFA’s VetFran® Program. With VetFran, we reduce the total of the Franchise Fee and Territory Fee by 30% for all honorably discharged veterans of American and Canadian armed forces. This discount is for the first franchise only.

Diversification Discount for Women & Minorities

We’re proud members of the International Franchise Association's (“IFA”) DiversityFran® Program, which provides a reduced franchise fee of $5,000 for minority owned and women-owned businesses. To qualify for the Diversity Discount, the franchised business must be at least 51% owned by a woman or minority. Discounts may not be combined. This discount is for the first franchise only.

Authority Brands uses the power of the franchise system to transform the home services industry and keep small businesses alive at the heart of the economy. We have a deep commitment to giving franchise owners all the tools they need to operate a successful business, and part of that includes making the unreachable reachable for communities that face additional barriers to entry. Through the International Franchise Association’s VetFran and DiversityFran programs, we are creating more veteran-, woman-, and minority-owned businesses. Let’s talk today about how those programs can work for you.

Our Different Markets

Investing and franchising with The Cleaning Authority is easy for entrepreneurs of all kinds. We offer two different market options, allowing for a wider group of potential franchisees to tailor their investments and future businesses to the markets in which they reside. Our ability to offer flexible franchising opportunities allows our business model to be accessible to franchisees from various professional and financial backgrounds.

Enterprise Market**

This option is great for the more experienced and aggressive entrepreneur. They provide the owner with the ability to build a large, thriving house cleaning franchise. The general size of these markets is between 30,000 and 60,000 households and they are often located in or on the outskirts of major metropolitan areas. Though they require a larger initial investment, they also provide a larger opportunity.
