This is the $60,000 a month remote leaning side hustle. What's up? What's up? Nick Loper here. Welcome to The Side Hustle Show. It's the entrepreneurship podcast you can actually apply. And here's the opportunity. Helping homeowners get the help they need and helping on the ground professionals get the work they want and making a margin in the middle. And doing it all from home, even if you have no experience in

the service your company is ultimately providing. It might sound a little bit crazy, but hey,

it's a crazy world that we live in. Today's guest is taking that model and really run with it,

growing from zero on a path to a million dollars in revenue as a side hustle in his first two years

as a remote cleaning entrepreneur from Nebraska elite cleaning.com. Skyler Sullivan.

Welcome to The Side Hustle Show. Yes, sir. Thank you, Nick. I appreciate it. Looking forward to

talking here. And me as well. Stick around in this one. You'll learn how Skyler landed his first

customers and cleaners. You got to play both sides of this, how he markets the business today,

and how he manages the communications and logistics of it all on the side

from his day job. But I want to know about your first booking. You put this out into the world and

somebody raises their hand. Some stranger customer says, yeah, come on by. Can you do my house?

Yeah, totally. First time, I didn't even know what I was doing. It took me a while actually to get

the LLC and all that sort of stuff. But finally, a couple months in, I actually get it. And I started using Angie leads. You know, everybody kind

knows about Angie. You've formerly Angie's list, sure. Yeah, Angie's list. So you bid on the leads. Each

leads like 35 bucks. The first one was a guy who called me and said he just needed the basement really, really vacuumed. I said, okay, we vacuum. He's like, well, you shampoo too? I'm like, no, not really, but we'll vacuum, you know. Anyways, I sent

a cleaner there. I didn't really know her, and she said she would do it. So she goes, doesn't make

it to the whole clean. She has roaches on her, says she had to run out. She's mad at me. The customer is unhappy because, you know, it was unrealistic

expectations because I didn't ask the right questions. And now the money he paid me, he wants to take

all his money back and the cleaner's mad. So it was like a complete train wreck for the first clean.

Yeah, you're like, wait a minute. This sounded so much easier on paper. Like, what are you supposed to do in that case? You're supposed to get, like, pictures of the space in advance?

Like, it's hard to give a bid over the phone or online if you don't know what you're walking

into.
