REAL TRANSFORMATIONS, RAW RESULTS:
SISTERS WHO SCALE SUCCESS STORIES
From Struggling Solo Cleaners to Thriving Business Owners
When I share these success stories, I'm not just showing off my students' wins (though I'm damn proud of them). I'm showing you what's possible when you stop making excuses and start making changes. These aren't overnight success stories or get-rich-quick schemes. These are real women who were drowning in their cleaning businesses until they decided enough was enough. They trusted my process, did the work, and transformed not just their businesses, but their entire lives. No sugar-coating, no BS—just real results from real cleaning business owners who decided to drop the mop and scale.
FROM DOORMAT TO DOMINANT: LEAH'S $55K MONTHLY REVENUE EXPLOSION
How This Single Mom Went From Being Exploited By Staff to Running a Thriving Cleaning Empire
I want to introduce you to Leah Worthington from Trinity, Florida. Her story might sound painfully familiar to you.
Every morning, Leah would wake up with that knot in her stomach we all know too well. That "who's going to call out today?" dread that makes you want to throw your phone across the room.
As a single mom who started Leah's Cleaning Service while juggling two jobs, she was desperate to make her business work. But instead of building her dream, she'd created a nightmare.
Leah's reality was brutal:
Staff who treated "calling in sick" like a weekly hobby
Employees who showed up late (or not at all)
Team members who delivered such poor quality that clients were constantly complaining
A business that was stuck in survival mode instead of growth
And the worst part? Leah was the classic "nice boss" who kept lending money to employees and making excuses for their bullshit. She was being taken advantage of left and right while her business suffered.
Sound familiar? I bet it does.
THE BREAKING POINT
Leah was drowning. Playing firefighter every damn day, rushing from one crisis to another. Her home office was chaos. Her revenue was stuck. And emotionally? She was completely drained.
She knew something had to change, but had no idea HOW to change it.
That's when she enrolled in my Drop the Mop Scale Accelerator Program. Not because she had some grand vision, but because she was desperate for a lifeline.
THE TRANSFORMATION
What happened next still blows my mind.
Leah didn't just implement the systems I taught her—she embraced the mindset shift that changed everything. She stopped being everyone's doormat and started being a real business owner.
She made the tough changes:
Moved her office out of her home, instantly boosting her professional image
Created actual systems instead of winging it every day
Learned to hold people accountable (even when it was uncomfortable)
Implemented client walkthroughs that completely transformed her sales process
Created professional onboarding folders with guidelines and checklists that impressed the hell out of clients
But the most powerful change? Leah finally set boundaries. She stopped letting employees take advantage of her kindness and started running her business like a business.
THE REAL RESULTS
Let's talk numbers, because they don't lie:
Leah increased her monthly revenue by $20,000.
Not in a year. Not eventually. $20,000 MORE each month (or $240k+ a YEAR) after implementing what she learned.
Her hiring practices completely transformed too. Instead of desperately clinging to terrible employees because she had no one else, she became skilled at finding the right people and quickly addressing issues with underperformers.
But the best result isn't even about money. It's about Leah reclaiming her power. No more waking up with that knot of dread. No more being exploited by employees who didn't care. No more sacrificing her well-being for a business that was bleeding her dry.
IN LEAH'S OWN WORDS
"Before working with Cheryl, I was constantly putting out fires and getting taken advantage of by my staff. Now I wake up excited about my business instead of dreading what problem will hit me next. Not only has my revenue exploded, but I actually have a life again. Moving my office out of my home and creating real systems changed everything. I went from struggling to thriving, and I couldn't have done it without Sisters Who Scale."
FROM TIME-STARVED MOM TO CONFIDENT CEO: GLORIA'S 150% REVENUE SURGE
How This North Carolina Cleaning Business Owner Stopped Cleaning and Started Leading
Let me tell you about Gloria Paul, a woman who might just be your business twin.
When Gloria started Greener Clean LLC in Statesville, North Carolina back in 2011, she had a newborn baby and a simple dream: build a business that would give her the freedom to actually be present in her child's life.
But fast forward a decade, and Gloria's "freedom business" had become a prison.
Every time a staff member called out (which was constantly), guess who grabbed the mop? Gloria.
Every time a potential client needed a quote, Gloria would awkwardly fumble through it, then scurry home to send the actual proposal later – missing the chance to close on the spot.
Every single day was a chaotic blur of cleaning houses, managing family responsibilities, attempting to market her business, and putting out endless fires.
The worst part? Despite working herself to exhaustion, Gloria wasn't seeing the rewards. The business was running her, not the other way around.
THE BREAKING POINT
By January 2023, Gloria had reached her limit. The business she started to create freedom was stealing every minute of her life. She was still cleaning houses more than a decade after starting her "business."
This wasn't entrepreneurship – it was just a job with extra headaches.
After watching from the sidelines in my free Facebook group, Gloria finally made the decision to invest in herself through Sisters Who Scale private coaching.
THE TRANSFORMATION
Instead of just giving Gloria some generic business advice and leaving her to figure it out alone, we worked together to completely overhaul her approach:
We ripped apart her hiring process and rebuilt it from scratch
She promoted a reliable staff member to take on managerial duties (hello, delegation!)
We practiced sales presentations until Gloria could confidently close deals ON-SITE in just 30 minutes
She implemented systems to track metrics and hold everyone accountable
But the biggest change? Gloria's mindset. She stopped seeing herself as "just a cleaner" and started owning her role as CEO.
THE REAL RESULTS
In just five months (yes, FIVE MONTHS), Gloria saw her business completely transform:
She increased her sales revenue by a staggering 150%.
Let that sink in. Not a 10% bump. Not even a respectable 50% increase. ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY PERCENT more revenue flowing into her business after implementing what she learned.
But the best part wasn't even the money. Gloria finally stepped out of the field. No more grabbing a mop when staff called out. No more being stuck in the day-to-day cleaning operations.
Instead, she was focusing on what actually mattered: growing her business, leading her team, and – finally – having the time freedom she started the business for in the first place.
IN GLORIA'S OWN WORDS
"Before Sisters Who Scale, I was spending all my time putting out fires without seeing the rewards. Sales were uncomfortable, so I'd go home and send quotes later instead of closing on-site. Now I'm closing sales in 30 minutes, right there in the client's home. My revenue is up 150% in just five months, and I'm finally running my business instead of my business running me. The accountability and personalized coaching were exactly what I needed to make these changes happen."
FROM FEARFUL SOLO CLEANER TO CONFIDENT BUSINESS OWNER: HEATHER'S COMEBACK STORY
How This Mom of Three Conquered Her Hiring Fears and Built a Real Business
Meet Heather Ellis, owner of Clean and Pink in Bradley, Illinois. If you're a mom trying to run a cleaning business while raising kids, her story will hit close to home.
Two years ago, Heather started Clean and Pink with a beautiful vision: create income for her family while still being present for her three children, plus honor her grandmother by donating to breast cancer initiatives. Noble goals, right?
But the reality? Heather was drowning.
Every day was the same exhausting cycle: clean houses, rush home for kids, handle admin work late into the night, collapse into bed, then do it all again tomorrow. She knew she needed help, but after a nightmare experience hiring a friend who became a toxic employee, Heather was literally terrified of bringing anyone else on board.
The worst moment? When a particularly difficult client confronted Heather's employees about her home, leaving Heather paralyzed with fear about getting bad reviews and losing business. She had no idea how to handle the situation professionally.
THE BREAKING POINT
Heather was stuck in the most frustrating catch-22 in the cleaning industry: too busy to hire properly, but too overworked to keep going solo.
She didn't know whether to focus on getting more clients first or hiring staff. Without a mentor, she was just guessing—and the stress was affecting everything from her business to her family life.
After following along in my free community group and seeing others transform their businesses, Heather finally decided to invest in herself and joined Sisters Who Scale private coaching six months ago.
THE TRANSFORMATION
Working together, we tackled Heather's biggest challenges head-on:
We completely rebuilt her hiring approach, creating job ads that attracted OVERQUALIFIED candidates (yes, they exist!)
We implemented training systems that clarified roles and expectations, making her team more efficient
We developed scripts and strategies for handling difficult client situations, giving Heather the confidence to stand firm
We created operational systems that reduced labor costs while increasing productivity
But the biggest change? Heather's confidence. The woman who was once terrified of hiring anyone after one bad experience was now building a real team and standing up to difficult clients without fear.
THE REAL RESULTS
In just six months, Heather transformed both her business and herself:
She successfully hired reliable staff, finally breaking free from the endless cycle of cleaning houses herself
She secured a professional office space, creating a legitimate home base for her growing company
She reduced her labor costs through better training and systems, directly improving her bottom line
She gained the confidence to let go of problem clients who were draining her energy and resources
She created a business that allows her to be present for her three children—which was her goal all along
And the numbers don't lie: Heather increased her revenue by a whopping $80,000 in the past year alone!
Her transformation has been so successful that she's now graduated to Sisters Elite, the advanced program for cleaning business owners who are ready to take their companies to the next level.
IN HEATHER'S OWN WORDS
"Before Sisters Who Scale, I was terrified of hiring after one bad experience with a friend. I was cleaning houses myself, exhausted, and completely overwhelmed trying to balance my business with raising three kids. The program gave me exactly what I needed—a hiring system that actually works, training procedures for my team, and the confidence to handle difficult clients. Now I have an office, qualified staff, and a business that works around my family instead of taking me away from them. Adding $80K in revenue this year alone shows that the systems really work, and I'm just getting started with Sisters Elite!"

If these stories resonate with you, it's not by accident. Leah, Gloria, and Heather were once exactly where you are now:

Anxious about sales and uncomfortable raising your prices
Overwhelmed by trying to balance work and family
Stuck in a cycle of putting out fires instead of building systems
Wondering if your cleaning business will ever give you the freedom you started it for
They all faced a critical decision point: keep struggling alone or invest in themselves and their businesses.

In just a few months, they:
Stopped cleaning and started leading
