How Andrew & Tela Went from Overworked Employees to Thriving Cleaning Business Owners

Inspired & All In

Andrew and Tela came into Build Remote while juggling two jobs each — both a full-time and a part-time role — searching for a path that would finally give them time freedom, financial freedom, and a way out of the corporate grind. They had always been employees working inside someone else’s vision, but watching their entrepreneurial friends live life on their own terms made them realize they weren’t meant for the traditional 9–5 world. Even with zero business, marketing, or tech experience, they were ready to start something of their own. After meeting with the Build Remote team, everything clicked. Although they had initial reservations about whether they could actually build a profitable residential cleaning business, they still chose to go all-in — and the results speak for themselves.

“You guys provide everything on a silver platter for us.”

When Determination Meets the Right Opportunity

Within their first 40 days, they generated $10,000, and by month three, they were already bringing in $10,000 per month consistently. They leaned fully into the Build Remote system: our e-courses, live group coaching calls, tech stack, website setup, marketing support, and training in both paid and organic marketing. They sharpened their sales script, strengthened their skills, and ultimately achieved an incredible 90% lead-to-customer conversion rate. Today, Andrew and Tela are living proof that when you follow the blueprint and stay committed, the business model works — even without prior experience.

Breaking Free From the Corporate Life

Looking ahead, their vision for the future is clear and incredibly inspiring. As they continue expanding their service areas and strengthening their presence locally, their next major milestone is reaching $20,000–$30,000 per month in revenue. What makes their growth even more remarkable is that, throughout building their cleaning business, both of them have already been able to step away from their full-time jobs while still maintaining part-time roles for stability. Their long-term goal is to hit that $30K month and fully transition out of their remaining jobs so they can dedicate all their time to growing the business and, most importantly, enjoy more freedom and quality time with their family.
