Maid2Clean MD discusses the secret of his success

Maid2Clean's MD Mike Hanrahan spoke to industry consultant Martin Chambers about his company's cleaning franchise.

Martin Chambers: Could you share your background prior to starting your business?

Mike Hanrahan: My background is in Chemical Engineering, Purchasing, Quality Management and Lean Six Sigma.

MC: When did you establish Maid2Clean?

MH: This business started in 1993 when my now ex-wife was pregnant with our eldest daughter. The franchise business was launched after 10 successful years of operation.

MC: How did you come up with the idea to start this business?

MH: We looked at a variety of home-based business ideas, but wasn’t not happy with the constraints of traditional cleaning franchises at that time so we re-engineered the best elements of the business models we had seen.

MC: What were your main lifestyle and business goals when you established Maid2Clean?
