What Is Your Commercial Cleaning Business Actually Worth? | John Sosville | Cleaning & Cocktails
from Cleaning and Cocktails · host Cleaning and Cocktails
🎙️ Ricky Regalado sits down with John Sosville — Founder of Sosville Capital & Platform Brokerage, M&A Advisor with 20 years of selling businesses, and the man behind CleaningExits.com — who has advised on over $100M in acquisitions across hundreds of deals and has made it his mission to protect the small cleaning business owner in a game that's been rigged for big buyers. 💥And trust us… the gems don't stop coming. 💎🚀 Here's just a taste of what they get into:💰 Where Valuation REALLY Comes From — Forget top-line revenue. John breaks down the three things that actually determine what your cleaning company is worth.🏆 The Sweet Spot — Why the $250K–$1M sale price range has the most buyers, and how to use that competition to your advantage.🤝 Acquisition Partnership™ — The one thing that matters more than price when selling your business. John's term. John's concept. Write it down.🔥 Build. Exit. Repeat. — Why your first exit might be the smartest business decision you ever make, and why almost nobody talks about it.📋 The Exit Readiness Checklist — The exact tool every cleaning business owner needs to have (but almost no one does), and why being exit-ready means running your dream business right now.🚨 The Highest Offer Is NOT the Best Offer — Earnouts, holdbacks, terms, and the isolation tactics big buyers use to grind sellers into the ground.🎙️ Whether you're a cleaning business owner under a million, scaling to $50M+, a supplier rep, a facility manager, or a tech founder — this episode is for YOU. 🧹🏢💼John doesn't just talk theory. He built one of the first Managed IT Services companies in Colorado, founded multiple businesses, studied internationally, and spent 20 years in the trenches of M&A — from ATM portfolios across 35+ states to commercial cleaning deals. He's brokered over $100M in transactions. His entire mission is getting the little guy to play at a level playing field with the big buyers. This is real talk, real strategy, and real value. 🚀🔚 And he ends it with the one thing most cleaning business owners are afraid to do — but that could change everything about how they build from here.🔗 Connect with John: www.linkedin.com/in/jsosville💻 Cleaning Exits: www.cleaningexits.com🌐 Platform Brokerage: www.platformbrokerage.com✅ Don't miss out on more valuable content and expert advice - Subscribe now! 🌐🚀 Follow us for more insights and success stories from the cleaning and facilities management industry!📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cleaningandcocktails/📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cleaningandcocktails/?_rdr📊 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/cleaning-cocktails/posts/?feedView=allC&C powered by:🌐 Route - A platform of business management tools for Sales, Operations, Subcontracting, Community & Education.
