Training & Support Program

Franchisor Assistance

Corporate Cleaning Group provides various forms of assistance to its franchisees. Before opening, the franchisor designates the territory, provides access to the operations manual and an equipment list, offers initial operations and sales training (with travel and living expenses for one franchisee covered for sales training), and provides initial advertising samples. The franchisor also reviews proposed commercial leases, if applicable. After opening, Corporate Cleaning Group provides ongoing assistance and supervision, including individualized support by phone, video, email, and updated advertising materials. The franchisor maintains the corporate website with a link to the franchisee's business and recommends pricing guidelines. They must approve all franchisee advertising. An annual conference, which is mandatory, may be held, requiring franchisees to pay a registration fee and travel expenses. Additional post-opening support includes periodic check-ins, performance tracking assistance, access to updated operations resources, and business development guidance. Sales support is offered through lead tracking, coaching on pricing strategies, and assistance with closing new business. Optional refresher training, coaching sessions, and professional development opportunities like webinars are also available. Corporate Cleaning Group requires franchisees to use designated accounting, payroll, timekeeping, and customer relationship management systems.

Ideal Candidate Profile

Corporate Cleaning Group seeks franchisees who are committed to actively supervising the day-to-day operations of their franchised business. Candidates must be prepared for a hands-on management style, as the franchise does not permit semi-absentee or passive ownership. If a franchisee designates a non-owner manager, that individual must successfully complete required training programs and pass a background check.

Territory Size Requirements

Corporate Cleaning Group defines franchise territories as an exclusive geographic area, typically by specified zip codes. The size varies based on factors such as geographical radius, serviceability, and the number of potential customers. Territories are developed to support sustainable business growth by including up to 400 niche business prospects. These prospects are identified by specific parameters like facility square footage for manufacturers and distributors (40,000+ sq ft), churches (10,000+ sq ft), and universities/colleges (10,000+ sq ft), as well as private schools with 50+ students. The territory also includes secondary prospects outside these main niches, but the core niche markets define its boundaries.

Staffing Notes

Corporate Cleaning Group requires franchisees to employ sufficient qualified individuals, trained and licensed as needed, to operate the business efficiently. Employees must conduct themselves professionally and wear brand-standard uniforms with the Corporate Cleaning Group logo. Franchisees must personally supervise daily operations or have a franchisor-approved manager who has completed required training and passed a background check. All employees and managers with access to confidential information must sign a confidentiality and non-compete agreement. The franchisor requires franchisees to conduct background checks, including nationwide sex offender and statewide/countywide criminal history searches, for all prospective employees in compliance with applicable laws, and maintain these records for five years. Franchisees are prohibited from allowing employees with background check violations or those who do not meet customer requirements to perform services.
