Hi Codie ❤ ,.. I just want to tell u that i watch as many of your videos as i can to learn as much as i can. i cannot say that the content from your videos don't actually work bouz that wouldn't be the truth. The problem i'm having is my financial situation and it preventing me from being able to make the kind of money i know i'm capable of. i had to leave my county job in 2018 to care for my mom who was dying from cancer & now she is cancer free & imm stuck in a financial rut i can't seem to break free from. i will keep trying & won't ever give up & i will keep watching until i find something that i can do to get me out of this mess. keep up the awesome videos ❤you are a genuinely good person & there aren't a lot of pol like you left in the whole world 🌎 today ❤
I have been in the market since 2022, i have a total profit of $795 thousand realized with my $65 thousand invested in Bitcoin, ETFs and other dividend income, I am very grateful for all the knowledge and information you have given me.
Been doing my window cleaning business for over 23 years in cargo shorts and always have been successful. I have never advertised nor do I have the name of my business on my van. Word of mouth has been the success of my business!
I have no doubt that you have been successful, but you cannot deny that a model like Pink's, which has grown to a million-dollar business in only a few years, is a great way to maximize earning potential.
Engaging with books has significantly elevated my perspective on investing. True wealth isn't built through mere savings; financial freedom stems from strategic investments. I've learned that accumulating wealth hinges on making prudent investment decisions|
Books have also changed my perspective on investing. Understanding that real wealth is built through strategic investments rather than mere savings is crucial. Working with an adviser has pointed me in the right direction_
This intrigues me. I've looked up financial advisors online, but finding one to connect with is a bit difficult. Do you mind if I ask for your recommendation??
Great message. And kudos to Mike Rowe for hosting the first show I can recall that paid homage to the working man. Let's make America do honest work again.
The uniforms (and personalities) that say "I'm professional but don't take life too seriously" are absolutely brilliant. Also that van wrap is so sexy, I want it on a poster. I'm in love.
Judging by most of the comments... no one here else has actually started and ran a window cleaning business.. its not as easy and wildly scalable as they are claiming here. Used to dig her content but man, so . much. cap. You have to scratch, crawl, beg your way to keep a full calendar cleaning glass. Yes its good revenue when the schedule is full, but you'll be selling non-stop 7 days a week to keep a full book. You'll spend stupid money marketing. Most window cleaners will average 85-115 per man hour worked ( key word worked), take out drive time, setup/tear downs, etc. Eateries (chilis', Applebees, chickfila type places are 40-50 bucks per cleaning. How long do you think it really takes to clean one of those? Hint: its more than an hour. Not saying there isn't decent money to be made, its not a get rich quick or easily scaleable model, just more of this hype cap hopium the gurus are pumping. Yes you can spend 100 bucks in cheap squeegees and go clean some windows today. You will NOT get a sports stadium with cheap hand tools. We passed on a few medium commercial jobs for mid rise 3-4 story buildings because their insurance requirements would have made our policy increase more than the price of the cleaning itself. 4-5k jobs because the additional insurance coverages were near $4000. Don't quit your day job folks.
I'm in window install and I was thinking exactly this, half way thru and I'm waiting for her to post a P&L report and talk about net inflows and outflows and man hours for the business.
this is truly the kind of content i subscribed to. i loved your older videos about how acquisition is the way to wealth, but these very personal interviews and close up look at the businesses is awesome, inspiring, educational...everything. love what you're doing, Codie!
I love them as well. Most channels and websites for business just repeat “dropshipping, print on demand, Amazon FBA, and affiliate marketing”. It is nice to see a channel that shows the other side.
I find it funny when you see the headline say they started a business with only $500 for example and afterwards tell you can do the same. So come be apart of our franchise but you will need $50,000-$150,000. I looked into Codie’s franchises and the barrier to entry($$$$) is definitely not accessible to those who are passionate about owning their own business but lack the amount of capital the franchise is requiring.
Both are true. You can start a cleaning biz for $500, or you can join one of Codie's franchises for $50k+. They are completely different biz models. Choose your own adventure.
Yeah bro its logically, you start on your own, its not that easy like when you become everything from them, Clients, cleaning tips, How to find customers or they cold call it for you, and everything thats a franchise brother, i start now on my own, and i will succeed ❤❤
With the franchise you have a system that's already built for you. The marketing , the invoicing system, the leads, it's all there. You can always build your own from scratch.
Total Investment $128,000 - $166,500 Initial Investment Why not go to Home Depot and buy a bucket, squiggeez, and towels for under $500? I understand that you get their clientele and all the backend hustle, but if you can do the upfront hustle of going after it, it's $500 vs 150k+ for window cleaning.
Problem with this us you need pure water not tap or you get water marks. Tried setting up with no money with buckets soap brushes etc but when you need reverse osmosis for the water you need water fed poles connected to a tank in a van! Little more than £150
Codie. You point of view is indeed contrarian and that excites me a lot. I know you're more focused on the US context (which makes sense)... However, do you think your courses and other offers might be suitable for you African audience? I really really fell in love with 'being an owner in a world of renters'. And If Africa needs a revolution I believe the Africans becoming owner of african business/african profit machines is the greater one.
Great video. I provide pressure washing for driveways, sidewalks, and decks. Maybe I should add this to my service. I just started my business. It's growing but not enough to quit my 40 hours a week job.
I know a lot of pressure washers that add window cleaning especially if you get their windows dirty you just add a little extra great way to start either or
most businesses that fail start a utube channel talking about it how get rich because their business failed and utube is easier. you see this alot with day trading etc.
So true, showing up and doing a good job is not that common anymore. Easy to excel. Also agreed people always need service people ( roofs, gutters, cleaners, electricians, plumbers, mechanics, pest control )
This is probably the very best business you have covered. One of my mentors recommends this exact business. It will be very compelling to hear how you end up doing in it.
That is how you do it. They think like I do. Though I would not select black as the color because that makes you sweat more. Definitely not a black cap 🧢 Lighter colors absolutely.
I am sorry, but I have my own company 😉 But remember 👍 Don’t punish yourself or your people with black clothes or shoes! They look fantastic, but they are miserable to wear when the sun ☀️ comes out. If your car is black and your cars interior is black then first take the BBQ sauce with you for your 🍑 😱 White. Always white with the gears. Hiring people is different. You want the people who are willing to learn!
Hi Cody, I love your work and how you better people's lives. Do you have any ideas for 60+ year old women who want to go back to work but are clueless and not so physically fit?
I love the idea about cleaning the windows for free. I’ve done that to break into neighborhood or a shopping center. I couldn’t get my foot in the door. The only thing I left out I never recorded it and put it on Facebook or Instagram. Thanks for the idea.❤😊
Very beautiful and quality business idea, Wonderful Street business, thank you and best wishes to you my dear gorgeous business mentor Codie♥️ Sanchez🤝♥️.
I am from Addis Ababa Ethiopia,I have my own TH-cam channel and also a blogger website site,So I would like to collaborate with you if you have any business ideas that we are working on together. And also could you allow me to create short videos on your contents in order to increase my channels subs and views.
Do you have any advice for stay at home moms? Love your content but it's for people with the ability to just go and do things. I have a disabled daughter with significant health issues that I can't just put into daycare. Any love or insight for moms like us who need to be at home would be grand. I previously started a polymer clay jewelery business (tiny desserts etc) that did very well because I have the dexterity to do it right however it's time consuming. I recognize the need to do the work once and then have that work keep making me money however with the advent of AI I feel like work from home options are diminishing. As an example I'm great at photoshop and was thinking of using that to earn income however businesses are now using AI to generate what they need (even if it's not that great looking). So, I'm trying to but would love your insight if you have any. Thanks for all you do girl!
What do these guys do for insurance or say anybody who wants to start their own business and you don't have any way to get insurance? What is the best option?
Not buying it. No way a window washing business is making 700K a year. Unless they are cleaning the windows on skyscrapers or something. Afterage cost to clean all the windows in an average house is only a few hundred dollars.
You can easily do $1500 a day 5-6 days a week and you’re looking at about $400,000 a year in revenue. It’s what we do and we only do residential. We add another route and it’ll be closer to what these guys are doing. Speaking from experience.
Love this. Entrepreneurs hustling and making The American Dream happen. For service businesses in need of growth, please reach out and I will help you optimize your ads and recurring revenue. We have happy clients and I love working with motivated, likeminded people. Thanks for sharing!

Why the name "Pink's"?
@@JohnnyRamirez-zk6zj THAT is why.
This is GENIUS! LoL. Awesome company and company brand.

I just want to use this opportunity to say a very big thank's to Christina Joneseth and she's Strategy, she changed my life.
You're correct!! I make a lot of money without relying on the government.
Investing in stocks and digital currencies is beneficial at this moment.
Any recommendations

@@glyakk 100% man !
You minimized your earning potential but as long as you were satisfied 🤷🏽♂️
How did you initially attain customers? Door knocking? Flyers?
Carter & Brandon are the Mario & Luigi of window cleaning🥳🥳
YES!😂
So cool😊
Engaging with books has significantly elevated my perspective on investing. True wealth isn't built through mere savings; financial freedom stems from strategic investments. I've learned that accumulating wealth hinges on making prudent investment decisions|
Embarking on the investment journey at 40, I envision a triumphant testimony of significant success by the age of 55..

'Angela Lynn Schilling’ maintains an online presence. Just make a simple search for her name online.
Wow, her track record looks really good from what I found online. I'll take a chance and see how it goes. Thanks for the info,.
OK, Mario Brothers or just me?
Yeeesss!😂
Omg Yes
Mario and Luigi 😅
Magnum P.I. and his little brother!
Same!😂
How do you contact the spirit of a deceased window cleaner?
Using a Squeegee board
These dad jokes are amazing
The one guy reminds me of Ben Stiller. These are smart dudes. Kudos to their success.
Great message. And kudos to Mike Rowe for hosting the first show I can recall that paid homage to the working man. Let's make America do honest work again.
The uniforms (and personalities) that say "I'm professional but don't take life too seriously" are absolutely brilliant. Also that van wrap is so sexy, I want it on a poster. I'm in love.
I told my vacuum cleaner jokes, but they just sucked. The window jokes, though, always get a clear laugh.
I'll take my shirt now 🙋🏽♂

"people who officially did things, looked the part"
The uniform with the mustache and mullets looks like 70's , well you know
these guys got a real old school vibe that is really killer
this is truly the kind of content i subscribed to. i loved your older videos about how acquisition is the way to wealth, but these very personal interviews and close up look at the businesses is awesome, inspiring, educational...everything. love what you're doing, Codie!
SUPER GOOD POINT AT THE END, CODIE!
This is great. Starting small can lead to big wins. Think tutoring or freelance gigs online as other options too.
As a inspiring entrepreneur i love these interactive videos with business owners on how they got started.
I believe the word you're searching for is ASPIRING.
I love them as well. Most channels and websites for business just repeat “dropshipping, print on demand, Amazon FBA, and affiliate marketing”. It is nice to see a channel that shows the other side.
Great simple business with easy cash flow. 5 years in the game still learning 🤙😎
Any business driving somewhere, is a win for me 👌🏼💯
the outfits are killer!
Codie your content is incredible! You have real data and real businesses providing us real value. So many gurus talk tough but don't provide the proof
These guys always clean with a smile because they know grime doesn’t pay
I find it funny when you see the headline say they started a business with only $500 for example and afterwards tell you can do the same. So come be apart of our franchise but you will need $50,000-$150,000. I looked into Codie’s franchises and the barrier to entry($$$$) is definitely not accessible to those who are passionate about owning their own business but lack the amount of capital the franchise is requiring.
Welcome to "marketing vs. real life 101" :P
Both are true. You can start a cleaning biz for $500, or you can join one of Codie's franchises for $50k+.
They are completely different biz models. Choose your own adventure.
Yeah bro its logically, you start on your own, its not that easy like when you become everything from them, Clients, cleaning tips, How to find customers or they cold call it for you, and everything thats a franchise brother, i start now on my own, and i will succeed ❤❤
You can very well start your own one. You do not need to be a franchise to get in.
With the franchise you have a system that's already built for you. The marketing , the invoicing system, the leads, it's all there. You can always build your own from scratch.
Nice. Love all your videos, even as real world connections for my accounting students. You keep it basic, but modestly technical. Perfect!
I’d like a job cleaning mirrors. It’s really something I could see myself doing.

$128,000 - $166,500

Why not go to Home Depot and buy a bucket, squiggeez, and towels for under $500?

Bringing respect back to the trades! You’re cleaning up boys!
Clean Some F'n Windows. Your awesome Codie!
Great video. I provide pressure washing for driveways, sidewalks, and decks. Maybe I should add this to my service. I just started my business. It's growing but not enough to quit my 40 hours a week job.
Window cleaning as well as soft washing / roof cleaning, would be a perfect fit for your business. Both are low investment.
I know a lot of pressure washers that add window cleaning especially if you get their windows dirty you just add a little extra great way to start either or
most businesses that fail start a utube channel talking about it how get rich because their business failed and utube is easier. you see this alot with day trading etc.
In US it's a Good bz, but in Brazil this service wont pay your Basic Bills.
My best year in business was during Covid. I was doing sales and had a service business.
In 2021 I also had my best year ever. I am self-employed. What you don't know, you don't know.
So true, showing up and doing a good job is not that common anymore. Easy to excel. Also agreed people always need service people ( roofs, gutters, cleaners, electricians, plumbers, mechanics, pest control )
Idk man, feels like a whole act. For the content of coarse. Anything’s possible
I hear you - but I get the branding + having some jokes / fun as well
I get it
The opening slow walk was impressive
This is probably the very best business you have covered. One of my mentors recommends this exact business. It will be very compelling to hear how you end up doing in it.
11:10 I was not expecting that 😂 way too funny
weird because immigration crippled my Cleaning business commercial & windows, i doubt a uniform change will change the fact that they bid dirt cheap
This is like a little mini marketing class. It's so brilliant and the flag/National Anthem monologue at 11:30 was my favorite 😍
They say $153 but what about the licensing fees - here in Texas an LLC license is $350 - then insurance etc...
Codie, good informative video, nice business, great bunch of guys doing a stellar job.
Amazing story, their attitude and vibes are off the charts
That is how you do it. They think like I do. Though I would not select black as the color because that makes you sweat more. Definitely not a black cap 🧢 Lighter colors absolutely.
I am sorry, but I have my own company 😉 But remember 👍 Don’t punish yourself or your people with black clothes or shoes! They look fantastic, but they are miserable to wear when the sun ☀️ comes out.

Stylish! Branding really changes the perspective
Only thing i would change are the socks thickness and maybe use white capys.
And of course the sponges it should be bigger
There is a typo in your franchise flag finder page "email will be send to you".
I would like to have a quick internship with these 2 guys and then will start the same business here on West Coast Florida.
Codie Sanchez is the new Dirty Jobs guy but for hustle culture.
I enjoyed the team spirit
Why did Codie Sanchez invest in Pink’s Window Cleaning Service?
Because she saw a clear opportunity for a spotless return on investment!✨
Her last line, “In fact, maybe you should go clean some (bleep)ing windows!” lol
Fantastic video! Go PINK'S!
If they're so successful, how did you come to own part of the business?
I bought it ;)
glad finding this channel
I'm trying to think of a joke but I need to make sure it's clean.
Codie, please reach out so that I can collect my pinks merch.
In order to standout, look at your competition and do the exact opposite. This applies beyond business as well.
Facts, let’s go get that dough!
Service jobs with a human touch that have their own distinct identity are rare and that's worth $$$$$$
Kinda expect people to work outdoors in Texas to have...a tan. Anyways, its OK to brand ambassadors and not do the work yourselves....😂
Two points that concern me are the low entry, low skills threshold and the apparent necessity of hiring employees.
Great story great guys
These dudes are awesome, I love hearing inspiring starting-from-nothing stories like these 🙌🏻
Also mario and luigi for the win:D
Fabulous! They look a bit like Super Mario Brothers!
Cleaning joke: Hawk Tuah 😅
I just spit out my water haha
@@CodieSanchezCTyou are supposed to spit on that thang.
Wrong,ItsNotOnly150Dollars.ItsTheCar,Insurance,DrivingLicense,Permits,OrBribeForLocalAutorities,etc.
What system do you use for scheduling the services?
You have to listen the “big deal” podcast, July 2 is all about this business and some interesting conversation about hands on work
Hi Cody, I love your work and how you better people's lives. Do you have any ideas for 60+ year old women who want to go back to work but are clueless and not so physically fit?
Why did the mop break up with the broom?
It found out the broom was sweeping around!
I'm dead.
When you so clean, people not so mean… 😂😂😂😂 Let me get that free merch….
I love the idea about cleaning the windows for free. I’ve done that to break into neighborhood or a shopping center. I couldn’t get my foot in the door. The only thing I left out I never recorded it and put it on Facebook or Instagram. Thanks for the idea.❤😊
Wow! Love the video and who would have thought window cleaning.... $$$
This business will wipe your "Panes" away...😅
