A Build Remote customer story

LeAnne Ballesteros

From Cleaning Offices Herself to over $10K/Month From Home—In Just 90 Days

LeAnne Ballesteros, Build Remote customer

Results reported in the original Build Remote case study. Individual outcomes vary; revenue is not profit.

With her family growing, LeAnne was ready to transition out of the field and start building her income from home.

For nearly 10 years, LeAnne Ballesteros ran an office cleaning business the traditional way—doing every single clean herself. While the business helped support her family, the work was physically demanding and often exhausting. As her family continued to grow, LeAnne realized she couldn’t keep relying on back-breaking labor to generate income long term.

For a couple of years, she quietly followed Build Remote on social media. She watched student wins, behind-the-scenes content, and success stories from people building cleaning businesses remotely. At first, she admits she was skeptical. But as she continued to see real results from others in the community, she started to feel like it might finally be her turn.

When she and her husband were preparing to welcome their third child, LeAnne made a decision. She wanted the flexibility to work from home, spend more time with her kids, and still grow a successful business. So she joined the program—and just one month postpartum, she got straight to work building the next chapter of her business.

In just 90 days of going all in, LeAnne experienced incredible growth. She went from earning $2,400 per month to $10,000 per month, all while running the business entirely from home and staying present with her family.

Like many students, her only hesitation in the beginning was wondering whether the opportunity was real. But once she committed and took action, the momentum came quickly.

What’s Next for LeAnne

After seeing such rapid growth in the first few months, LeAnne’s focus is now on continuing to scale the business and building stronger systems behind the scenes. Her long-term goal is to fully automate the operation, creating a business that generates consistent revenue without requiring her to handle the day-to-day operations herself.

Most importantly, she’s building it in a way that allows her to prioritize her family while still growing a profitable company from home.

“I wish I would have started this sooner.”

Final Takeaway

LeAnne’s story is a powerful reminder that many entrepreneurs start out trading time and physical labor for income. For years, she ran a successful cleaning business—but she was the one doing all the work.

By leveraging the Build Remote system, she was able to transition from being the cleaner to becoming the business owner, scaling from $2,400/month to $10,000/month in just 90 days—all while working from home and caring for her growing family.

For parents looking for more flexibility and entrepreneurs ready to step out of the field and into ownership, LeAnne’s journey shows what’s possible with the right systems and support.
