How would you describe people who typically thrive in this industry?
They are definitely self-learners. They're not afraid of people judging them.
We see Stanford and Berkeley grads running cleaning companies because they see the opportunity in this. It's such an old, traditional industry, but if you know how to leverage people, technology, and process to build something within it, you see the results immediately.
However, you have to work hard and know how to leverage different things to make it work. That's number one. Number two is that they are fantastic people managers.
