Background

NLZ Cleaning Long Island had steady demand but the owner was still tied to phones, scheduling, and day to day admin. Monthly revenue hovered near 25,000 and growth felt capped by time.

Objectives

Reclaim the owner’s day, stabilize operations, and create room to scale without sacrificing service quality.

Bottlenecks Identified

Peak hour calls went unanswered, schedules slipped, follow ups lagged, and hiring dragged on without clear steps. Documentation was light, so tasks were easy to miss and hard to repeat.

Implementation Highlights

We clarified goals, mapped pressure points, and introduced a simple operating rhythm. Customers reached a real person quickly, calendars stayed tight, estimates received timely follow ups, and routine admin lived inside the existing systems so nothing fell through the cracks.

Owner Impact

With daily work handled, the owner shifted attention to growth and checked in about 15 minutes per day to review progress and approve decisions.

Business Results

Monthly revenue rose from about 25,000 to 40,000 in the first phase, with continued expansion from a steadier operational base. Faster responses, fewer missed calls, cleaner pipelines, and smoother staffing turned busy days into a repeatable growth engine.

Diagnose, Systemize, Launch, Optimize

We mapped the time drains, built simple SOPs with right-sized coverage, handed daily admin to a dedicated virtual admin, and tuned performance weekly to turn busy days into a repeatable growth rhythm.

Map, Match, Onboard, Improve

We mapped bottlenecks, matched a personality-fit admin to the client’s hours and tools, onboarded with clear SOPs and scripts, then improved weekly with QA and metric-driven tweaks.
