Beating the Odds a Job at a Time
Manage episode 499814557 series 3584266
Roland Ligtenberg, co-founder of Housecall Pro, sat down with Neil and Tabetha Guffey, co-owners of Confident House Cleaning. Theirs is an inspiring comeback story of humble origins in Springfield, Oregon. They started their business in August of 2023 while still on drugs. The Guffeys invested the last $250 they had (in the middle of the night), cleaned up their act, and started cleaning up literally - now with a 2025 revenue goal of $200k. The Guffeys share where they find their clients, the thought process of running paid ads or not, and how they maximize Google. They also lay out the features of Housecall Pro that have become indispensable to their business.
