From struggling musician to building a thriving remote cleaning business, Dan Blaker's story proves that success comes to those who stay true to their values. After discovering MaidThis through an online article, Dan took a leap of faith, armed with nothing but determination and a loan from his mom to cover the franchise fee.

Starting his cleaning business journey wasn't smooth sailing. While juggling intense franchise training sessions and working his day job in sales, Dan faced a pivotal moment when he was let go for refusing to sell overpriced services to struggling customers. This forced transition became his breakthrough.

Today, Dan's MaidThis franchise in Myrtle Beach generates $250,000 annually, with 83% of his business coming from vacation rentals. He's not just running his own successful cleaning business - he's become an integral part of the MaidThis family, training over 20 new franchisees and mentoring others toward their own success.

In this episode, Dan shares his raw and honest journey of building a remote cleaning business from scratch, how he turned seasonal challenges into opportunities, and why staying true to your ethics might be your biggest business advantage. If you've ever doubted whether you could start a business without deep pockets or connections, this story will show you what's possible.
