The Brandons are back!

After a brief pause from releasing new episodes, Brandon Schoen and Brandon Condrey return to the Profit Cleaners Podcast to explain why they went dark—and what they’ve been building behind the scenes.

Rather than stepping away from the business, the past few months have been spent working deeply on the operations of their real-world cleaning company, Sandia Green Clean, refining systems, upgrading infrastructure, and preparing the next phase of growth.

In this episode, the Brandons share a candid look at what it takes to run and evolve a $5 million cleaning business nearly a decade in. From expanding their workspace and solving operational bottlenecks to rethinking their marketing strategy and replacing outdated software that was slowing their team down, they discuss the continuous improvements required to keep a growing company running efficiently.

They also discuss the importance of regularly revisiting business systems, why technology should accelerate your operations rather than slow them down, and how their team is beginning to explore AI tools to improve efficiency while enhancing the customer experience.

Finally, the Brandons preview what’s ahead for the podcast, including their upcoming Future-Proof Cleaning Business series, where they will share practical insights and lessons from the strategies they are actively implementing inside their company.

For cleaning business owners looking to strengthen operations, upgrade systems, and build a business designed for long-term growth, this episode offers a transparent look at what happens behind the scenes. Listen now!
