James Donaldson, a dedicated professional with years of sales management experience, has recently taken the leap into entrepreneurship by acquiring Betterclean Services Preston. James is excited to bring high quality commercial cleaning solutions to businesses across Preston, Blackburn, Chorley, and the surrounding areas! He sought a new opportunity that would bring both professional and personal fulfilment.
​
James spent a year researching franchise opportunities across various industries, even attending the Franchise Show at the NEC to gain deeper insights. His primary motivation for considering a franchise was the prospect of becoming his own boss, enjoying the freedom and flexibility of running his own business, and having the support of an established brand. While he always aspired to run his own business, he lacked the knowledge to start from scratch. A franchise model offered the ideal blend of independence and support, significantly increasing his chances of success.
​
Initially uncertain about which path to take, James found clarity through discussions with Mike from Betterclean Services. These conversations helped address his uncertainties and painted a clearer picture of the journey ahead. The key factors that solidified his decision to choose Betterclean Services included:
• A well-recognised brand with a proven system in the commercial cleaning sector.
• Comprehensive training and ongoing support, even for those without prior experience in the industry.
• A recession resistant industry with constant demand.
• Strong potential for business growth and profitability.
​
James is enthusiastic about the extensive learning opportunities that will help him build a solid foundation for his new business. He found the training to be engaging, easy to follow, and highly informative, giving him confidence in his ability to succeed. Knowing that the support available extends beyond training has reassured him that he will never be alone in his journey.
James is particularly excited about:
• No longer having to commute long distances.
• Spending more quality time with his family.
• The flexibility of being his own boss.
• Growing a business that he can take pride in building for the future.
​
James envisions expanding his territory and building a team that allows him to focus on aspects of the business he enjoys the most. While long term goals include growth, his immediate focus is on establishing a strong foundation and learning everything necessary to ensure a successful start.
​
With both feet firmly on the ground, James is ready to make his mark in the commercial cleaning industry, backed by the strong support system of Betterclean Services.
