About This Video
In this MaidPro franchisee video, Travis Goldfein, who runs a MaidPro office in Minneapolis, shares his experience after about three and a half years in business. He opened his franchise in March 2016.
Goldfein describes home cleaning as a rewarding industry because it lets him help people. Many of the clients his team serves are older adults who are not yet in assisted living, and he says the service makes their lives easier and gives families more time together.
He is proud of the business he has built, noting that it has grown every month since it opened. He enjoys building a team and says he is happy to go into work every day.
Asked what sets MaidPro apart in a market with independent contractors and other cleaning brands, Goldfein points to customer service, which he credits to training from the home office. He says the brand teaches owners how to present themselves well, whether in marketing or in client interactions.
His growth story has a lifestyle benefit too. Goldfein started alone in a small office hiring his first employees and now has two managers, which allows him to take every Thursday off to spend with his one-year-old. That flexibility, he says, was one of the main reasons he wanted to own a business.
He also values the owner network. Fellow franchisees share experiences and answer questions, and there is always someone who has been in your shoes. He describes MaidPro as a family. For prospective franchisees, this video shows a team-building path to ownership.
