The Brighton, Hove & East Sussex area consists of 14 postcodes,and I run my business single handed. I currently have 509 hours of cleaning per week with 62 amazing and loyal cleaners.

I have owned Time For you Brighton & Sussex for just over 23 years, and it has given me a fabulous income and lifestyle. It has also enabled me to free up many hours writing and publish 11 books and to become a qualified dog behaviourist.

This is a business that you can run around a young family (like I did, many years ago) and you can have the freedom to do anything else your heart desires.  The work life balance really is life altering.

With a current annual income this coming year of approximately £80,000 my business is the one to buy, this really is a golden opportunity, you will have an immediate established income right from the off.

I have always made sure I have kept under the VAT threshold to fit in with my chosen lifestyle, however, it would not take long at all to far exceed this and more!

I have only tapped into the tip of the iceberg with my area due to my other interests, but there is enormous growth potential quite literally on your doorstep!

My reason for selling, is that after 23 years (yes! I have owned my company since November 2001!!) I am ready to semi-retire and I feel it is time for someone new who has the drive and passion to take this onto a whole new level.  

There’s been so many recent introductions by Time For You in the technology world, ongoing training, plus the support of the private workplace forum which is a great hub to throw around ideas, and get support from other franchisees!  You will never be alone!

Even through the devastation of Covid, my clients and cleaners remained loyal and by my side throughout. Almost every week I get an old client wanting to resume their cleaning service again.  My oldest client has been with me since 2003!  If I can manage to still have a thriving company after Covid, there really is no stopping its success!

My wonderful team of 62 cleaners range from all ages and demographics who work hard and strive to make the business successful.  It has taken a long time to build up such an incredible team of people!

So, if you are pulling your hair out over yet another 9-5 week, fed up at yet another missed holiday opportunity because of work restrictions, missed yet another school play or sports day, or wishing that you were able to tap into a flexible, work from anywhere (yes, you can quite literally work from anywhere, any of my fellow franchisees will confirm this once they are back from their cruises, holidays in the Algarve, or even Disneyland!) job, then look no further, you have arrived at your next destination!

Sound too good to be true? Trust me, it really isn’t.  Ruth and Freddie can vouch for this, as can everyone at Time For You!

 So, what are you waiting for?  Don’t miss out on an opportunity of a lifetime, take the leap!

This franchise is available for sale at £20K . The current owner is selling due to ill-health. The franchise yields a turnover of between £23-30K serving 30/40 clients a week in private homes in the BA14,BA15, SN12, SN13, SN14 and SN15 postcode areas, including Chippenham, Trowbridge, Melksham, Bradford on Avon and the surrounding areas.

Franchise overview:

• The Falkirk branch covers FK postcodes - Falkirk, Stirling and Clackmannanshire areas. The company has been established for 9 years and from a standing start now has around 300 cleaning hours per week, delivered by 36 hardworking cleaners. It has a regular, established, contracted client base, covering weekly and fortnightly cleaning.
• Having built the business up, the owner has reaped the rewards of their hard work and advertising and has been able to run the business on a part-time basis over the past few years.
• The business currently has low outgoings, which has resulted in a high net profit of 75%, over the last 2 years.  A new owner will be making a profit, immediately, on taking over the business and enjoying the recurring income, from the 100+ clients the business currently has.
• The business also has great growth potential with many new enquiries, every week, and whilst the current owner maintains the business at its current size, to suit their lifestyle, it also has the potential to become a 6 figure profit making business.
• With the current owner now planning to retire, this is a great opportunity for someone who is looking to have a better work life balance, with a flexible, lifestyle business, which can be worked from home or anywhere the owner chooses.
• The new owner will be joining an established and supportive brand: a comprehensive handover of the business, will be provided by the current owner.

Franchise overview:

• After several years of building a solid client and cleaner base, the business is currently managed on a part-time basis, facilitating a flexible lifestyle without compromising on income.
• Current turnover is £56,000+.
• The Hull franchise was established 11 years ago when the current owner started the business. Today this franchise averages 300 hours of cleaning each week, with 33 established cleaners. Overheads are kept to a minimum with the intention to maintain client and cleaner numbers at present levels as the existing franchisee wants to retire.
• The business has great potential for growth. With all Hull postcodes available (HU1-HU20), it’s realistic to achieve double the current turnover, which is encouraged with support and training available from head office.

Current owners comments

"This is a fantastic opportunity for someone to take over an established business which will provide an immediate income. My franchise journey has given me the freedom to work when I want and have a great income and lifestyle. It’s certainly exceeded my expectations - with a current turnover of £56,000 I’d consider that’s really pretty good for no more than 12hrs work per week!

I have many long-term clients, and just 3 of those clients who joined in 2012 have contributed around £16,000 to date - and they’re still with me. This business truly provides a consistent residual income".

With an established client base with regular existing work, purchasing this existing franchise will provide the new franchise owner with healthy profits from day one, With an asking price of £21,000 this is only £4,250 additional cost over the price of purchasing a new Franchise with no existing clients.  The current owner is selling due to ill health.
