Self Maid

Open Doors, Open Wallets (#79)

July 09, 2025 • Jason Shipway • Season 1 • Episode 79

In this episode of Self Maid, I dive into one of the most underrated but insanely effective ways to grow your residential cleaning business: door knocking. Yep; just you, some flyers, and the courage to show up.

I break down why this strategy works so well in male-dominated niches like pressure washing and window cleaning, and why most residential cleaners are leaving money on the table by ignoring it. We’ll explore some of the mindset blocks that stop people (especially women) from giving it a go, and how to overcome them.

You’ll also get example scripts, practical tips, and a fresh way of looking at direct sales that could unlock a whole new stream of clients.

If you’ve ever felt stuck on how to get more leads without spending big, this episode is your sign to knock on the next door, and open a whole new level of opportunity.
