1. What attracted you to the Keen to Clean Group (KTCG) franchise?

Various key fundamentals have attracted me to purchase the general cleaning franchise in Clayton. I had various meeting with the Franchisor to discuss the options and also to see that how this franchise is going to help me. In those meetings I got the honest and right answers to my questions which helped me to take the decision on going further. Some of the key features were: ongoing support, extensive and ongoing training and all efficient business guidance are from the lot more elements. Also the guaranteed income attached with each of the franchise. I think in this business reliability and image is important things that the KTCG seemed and made me to have going for it

2. What is the best thing about owning a KTCG franchise

Getting good experience, exposure and running your own business whilst also getting enough support so that you don’t have to worry if you make a mistake. Also getting the chance to constantly learn new things is something that has always appealed to me and I haven’t stopped learning since I started.

3. What kind of support do you receive from the KTCG franchisor?

The franchisor provided me with moral and right guidance support even when I was just enquiring about the franchise. Every time you need it support is provided. But more importantly they offer open communication and a strong knowledge base. When I was on my initial days of business they passed on key tips to gain success in the cleaning industry. When I went overseas my jobs were managed by the KTCG office so that I didn’t have to stress and enjoying holidays, their support during this time was amazing. They also built right amount of motivation and confidence in each franchise owner.

4. What is the lifestyle like for a KTCG franchise owner?

More busy! Frankly speaking I was a student when the franchise was purchased. But I have managed my business, studies and personal life in an appropriate way without any stress.

Yes, I am definitely satisfied with the ongoing business support, growth and constantly increasing income.

6. Why do you say that?

It is living up to the expectations I had when I signed up.

7. Why is a KTCG franchise different to other cleaning franchises?

I was associated with Keen to Clean for a very long time as a sub-contractor, hence I was personally didn’t do much research on any other cleaning franchise. I was dealing only with KTCG is terms of buying a franchise because their franchise model and concept immediately took my attention. While speaking to the franchisor, I felt that the group was open and giving all the information upfront which were very transparent this also made me feel that the group is very honest and . I was particularly interested with the guaranteed income associated with each level of franchise. Ultimately it is what made me go with the franchise. More interesting factor about the KTCG franchise is that they are looking for business mind people and cleaners as such, who like to grow and become an established entrepreneur. The franchise model is very unique and different from other franchises in that it rewards a balance of business and cleaning success that allows for fast growth and expansion.

8. How has owning a KTCG franchise affected you in a positive way?

It taught me to grow my business by using proper communication with customers. The group taught me new methods and techniques for doing this, as well as business knowledge in general.

Yes, it exceeds the initial expectation.

The first and second year of business operation.

Keen to Clean Franchise BRW Fast Starter 2012

Keen to Clean Franchise Fast Starters 2012

Yet again the Keen to Clean Group is setting business and cleaning industry standards by achieving a placing in the BRW Fast Starters 2012 listing. Ranking in at number 88, a result practically unheard of for a franchise let alone a cleaning industry position, the result is a clear sign that the group is now a major player not just in its own industry but at large.

The BRW magazine is the point of call for business insight with a record of discovering big players long before they make a splash. The Fast Starters list is particularly prestigious, allowing newly formed operations to get their name out in a big way. Listing only those that have achieved consolidated growth over the last two years whilst being young in the industry by being formed after 2006, the list represents the companies that will be the centre of their industries and the Australian economy at large in the very near future.

“The result is a great surprise, showing that our hard work and the support we have received has paid off,” said Bijesh Purohit, Managing Director of Keen to Clean. “We can’t thank people enough for helping us get here.”

“But what I think it really says is that even though we’ve come this far, even though we’ve had so much success… in reality we are still a very young business that has a lot of room to grow. Honestly, that idea is more exciting than the result itself,” he continued.

“I hope everyone will look forward to the benefits of this growth as much as we do.”
