This is critical to both retaining customers and maintaining a reputation that attracts new business, especially as cleaning costs rise in response to the inflation impacting every sector in the country. Minster Cleaning will continue to build on the support it provides franchisees in 2023, so they have all the tools they need to thrive in this environment. This includes expanding centrally managed email


marketing activity, which has already generated significant numbers of leads for franchisees. The company will also continue implementing and refining its customer relationship management tool, TEAMs Software. This is a one-stop-shop for cleaning and client data, that offers a range of capabilities from rostering and payroll, to identifying gaps in capacity and pinpointing which available cleaners have the right skills to fill them. The sustainability agenda is another area of focus


for Minster Cleaning. Increasingly, corporate clients want to make sure the suppliers they work with align with their broader sustainability commitments. This includes providers of commercial cleaning services.

That’s why it’s a priority for Minster Cleaning, which aims to use products that are both effective and environmentally friendly. A number of franchisees have already started to introduce electric vehicles into their mobile workforce. Given this combination of comprehensive support


and robust revenues, it’s not surprising people are taking a serious look at Minster Cleaning. “We’ve recently seen an increase in the quality and credibility of enquiries about existing branch resales, of which there are currently four on the market. There are several reasons for this, including people wanting a new lifestyle and more control over their careers. Of course, running any business is hard work and has some risk but by buying an existing franchise, you have an immediate revenue stream,” says Mike. In his 15 years with the company, all but one resale has been due to retirement, which is testament to the long-term consistency and profitability of commercial cleaning. Today the top franchisees are earning more than £200,000 in net profit each year. There are also several opportunities to buy a


franchise in a new territory and build a business of huge value from the bottom up. “We have a number of exciting greenfield territories we’d love to expand into, that have huge potential. One of the most satisfying parts of the job is bringing someone on

board who has the right skills and helping them flourish. We’re so confident in our business model that we’re currently guaranteeing a £45,000 gross profit* in the first 12 months for new franchisees buying a greenfield territory. If they don’t hit that target, we’ll make up the difference,” says Mike. (Visit minsterfranchise.co.uk for full terms and conditions.) All of Minster Cleaning’s territories are large and
