While YouTubers Push AI, My Students Make $15k/Month Helping Janitors

Meet Jake, a 21-year-old college dropout who just bought his mom a house with a ‘boring business’.

His secret?

Optimizing Google Business Profiles for Janitors and Carpet cleaners.

No fancy tech skills.
No viral TikTok fame.
Just helping local cleaning businesses get found online – and pocketing $12k/month in retainers.

Meanwhile, 99% of “gurus” push:

• “Make $10k/month with AI!” (saturated)
• “Start a print-on-demand store!” (low margins)
• “Dropship cheap gadgets!” (endless refunds)

But 43% of my students now earn 15k/month in this hidden goldmine.

Here’s why janitorial marketing is the easiest money you’re ignoring – and how to start today (zero cost).

Why Cleaning Businesses Are Desperate for Help (72% Still Use Phone Books!)

Most cleaning companies don’t understand digital marketing.

• 72% rely on phone books over SEO (Statista 2023)
• Google Business Profiles with 2 blurry photos and no keywords
• Facebook pages last updated in 2017

Result? They’re losing $5k+/month in missed jobs.

Case Study: $12k/Month from FB Ads for Carpet Cleaners

One student, Sarah, noticed a local carpet cleaner spending $2k on useless billboards.

She offered to run hyper-local Facebook ads targeting:

• “Emergency carpet cleaning [City]”
• “Move-out cleaning services near me”

Within 30 days:
✅ 37 new clients for the business
✅ 12k/month

The best part? Most cleaners don’t even know this service exists.
