Why Carpet Cleaning vs Other Service Businesses?

Most service businesses will work you to death before you ever see real money.

HVAC
  • Months of expensive schooling
  • Crawling through 120-degree attics
  • One mistake = flooding or fire
Power Washing
  • 95-degree heat for 8 hours
  • Can't work when it rains
  • Heavy physical work
Window Washing
  • 40-pound ladders
  • Balancing on ledges
  • Weather kills your schedule
Landscaping
  • Oversaturated market
  • Seasonal slowdowns
  • 12-hour days of heavy labor

Carpet cleaning: Work indoors, customers leave you alone, use 3 simple solutions, no back problems, recurring income, charge $100-400/hour, and run solo.

My Story: From Laid Off to $1M+ Business

My Story - Green Rhino Academy

At 48, I got laid off from my machinist job with less than a week's notice. I had no degree, no savings, and no backup plan — just a $1,600 carpet cleaning machine I'd been using on the side.

I went ALL IN on carpet cleaning because I realized service-based businesses were the only way to make real money. What started as a used truck mount turned into over $1M in sales.

Getting laid off was the best thing that ever happened to me. Now I help others build the same freedom.

But Here's What 99% of People Get Wrong

The real secret: 90% of your success comes from the business side, not the cleaning itself.

Most people focus on cleaning well but ignore:

  • Getting customers consistently
  • Pricing for maximum profit
  • Building a reputation that gets people calling YOU
  • Turning one-time customers into lifetime customers

That's why most carpet cleaning businesses fail. They learn cleaning but never learn how to build an actual business.

Let's Be Realistic

This isn't a get-rich-quick scheme — it takes work. But here's what I can promise:

Working just weekends: easily make an extra $500/week = $24,000/year.

Full-time as an owner-operator: $120,000-200,000/year working 4-5 hours a day.

One of my students did $96,000 in his first year. Six months after starting, he quit his job to do it full-time.

Is This Program Right For You?

This is for you if you:

  • Want control over your time and income
  • Are ready to put in real work for real rewards
  • Can invest in proper tools and training
  • Are serious about building something that lasts

It's not for you if you:

  • Want passive income without effort
  • Aren't ready to follow proven steps
  • Expect success without taking action

FAQ

Do I need experience?
Nope. Most of our students had none. If you can load a dishwasher, you can learn to clean carpets.
What's the minimum investment?
You can start with equipment around $1,600.
How fast can I start earning?
Some students book their first job in 2–3 weeks. Many earn back their course cost from their first job.
Is demand really there?
Absolutely. Just one $300 job a day, five days a week = $72K/year.
