Since 2002, Domestic Angels has been helping people build successful cleaning businesses that fit around their lives, not the other way round. We believe running your own business shouldn't mean doing it alone. That's why every Domestic Angels franchisee benefits from proven systems, practical training and ongoing support from an experienced team, as well as a network of fellow business owners who genuinely want to see each other succeed. Our franchisees don't need previous cleaning experience. What they do need is great organisational skills, good communication, a genuine interest in people and the ambition to build something they're proud of. Together, we've built a trusted domestic cleaning brand that puts people first, our customers, our cleaners and our franchisees. Whether you're exploring self-employment for the first time or looking for a business with an established track record, we'd love to help you discover what's possible. We're looking for people whose values align with ours, people who care about family, community, trust and professionalism. If you're curious about what life as a Domestic Angels franchisee could look like, let's have a conversation. We'll answer your questions honestly, help you explore your options and, together, discover whether we're the right fit for each other.

🏡 Can you really run a business from your kitchen table?

Zanda recently asked us: “I am interested, work from home?”

Yes, Zanda, you absolutely can! ❤️

A Domestic Angels business doesn't need an office or commercial premises. Your kitchen table will do nicely. Kettle on! ☕

There are some lovely advantages:

🏡 No office rent or separate business premises.
☕ Manage enquiries, schedules and your team of Angels from home.
❤️ Get out and meet people in your local community.
🕒 Organise your working day around your other commitments.
🚗 No daily commute to an office.

Of course, working from home doesn't mean sitting in your slippers waiting for the business to run itself! 😂 Effort in = Results out.

A home-based business, not a stay-at-home job. ❤️

Curious about what you'd actually be doing? We've got two guides that explain it.

❤️ How much difference can one small local business make?

Quite a lot, actually!

Our founder, Sam Acton, made an interesting point when chatting with Liz Barclay, former UK Small Business Commissioner: "A business employing five people for 25 years provides 125 years of employment within its community."

That might not make the headlines, but think about what those jobs mean to the people doing them. For someone caring for an elderly parent, or a mum who needs to be at the school gates, a few hours of work close to home can make an enormous difference.

It's one of the reasons Sam feels so strongly that Britain's smallest businesses deserve more recognition and a voice when employment policies are being discussed.

She's written about her conversation with Liz here: https://franchise.domestic-angels.com/britains-smallest-businesses-deserve/

😂 "No business plan, no experience of employing people and absolutely no idea what I was letting myself in for!"

That's how our founder, Sam Acton, started Domestic Angels 24 years ago. She's been chatting with Liz Barclay, former UK Small Business Commissioner, about those early days, including learning to run payroll with a pencil, paper and rubber. Yes, really!

The conversation also turned to something Sam feels very strongly about:

❤️ Britain's smallest businesses deserve to be heard.

They're the businesses creating local jobs, offering flexible working opportunities and helping people balance earning a living with caring for their families. Yet the people running them don't always have a voice when decisions are made about them.

As Sam said to Liz: “We need to be heard, we need to be recognised, we need to be represented.”

❤️ We've had quite a lot to talk about at Domestic Angels recently!

Danielle has gone from being an Angel to owning her own Domestic Angels business, our Angels' views on flexible working have reached The Sunday Times, and we've been looking back over 24 years of Domestic Angels.

It's all in our October Angel Newsletter, which we normally only share with our Angels.

We thought we'd let you have a look too.

It's only one page. We won't keep you long! 😂

⭐ Domestic Angels Lincoln East has a new business owner!

And it's someone the Lincoln East customers and Angels already know. ❤️

Danielle has gone from working as an Angel, looking after customers in their homes, to becoming the owner of Domestic Angels Lincoln East.

It wasn't something she'd been planning either: “I had never considered this as I was unsure about my ability, so when the opportunity was offered it came as a complete surprise.”

Now she's trained, open for business and getting used to a rather different job title.
As Danielle puts it: “It's still strange hearing that!” 😊 She's also got a team of Angels she already knows around her and says they're “already making it a success.”

So here's another very big congratulations to Danielle and everyone at Domestic Angels Lincoln East. 🎉❤️

If you're local, pop over and follow their page to see what Danielle and the team get up to next.

❤️ Meet Danielle

Danielle was already part of Domestic Angels Lincoln East, working as one of our Angels looking after customers in their homes.

Today, she's the owner of Domestic Angels Lincoln East ⭐

Had she ever imagined herself owning the business?

“To be fair I had never considered this as I was unsure about my ability, so when the opportunity was offered it came as a complete surprise.”

There has been plenty to learn. Danielle says the transition has been relatively smooth and easy, although the learning curve during training was “surprisingly steep.”

And now that she's open for business?

“I'm most looking forward to this new opportunity and seeing how far I can go as a new business owner; it's still strange hearing that! But we have a great team of Angels who are already making it a success.”

So please join us in saying a very big congratulations to Danielle and the whole Domestic Angels Lincoln East team. ❤️

If you're in Lincoln East, go and say hello, give their page a follow and see what Danielle and her Angels are getting up to.

🚗 **“We certainly don't want people using their life, their precious life, sat in a car.”**

That's how our founder, Sam Acton, puts it when answering Kirsty's question about why Domestic Angels business owners don't need to supply cars to their Angels.

The thinking is actually very simple:

📍 Recruit people locally
🏡 Give them local customers
🏫 Organise their work sensibly around home, school runs or caring responsibilities
💷 Don't unnecessarily run up petrol or travel costs

Some Angels like to drive and go further afield, of course. That's a conversation to have with each individual.

But the basic principle is **local people looking after local customers.**

⭐ **This week's Star Question Asker is Kirsty.**

We were chatting with Kirsty last week when she asked a cracking question:

**“How can you run the business without supplying cars or even branded cars to each of the members of staff?”**

🚗 Good question, Kirsty!

And the answer tells you quite a lot about how a Domestic Angels business actually works.

🎥 **Our founder, Sam Acton, answers Kirsty here:**
https://youtu.be/_FLUGpwfJlo

The basic idea is pretty simple:

📍 Recruit people locally within your territory
🏡 Assign them to customers locally
🏫 Organise their work sensibly around where they live, school runs or caring responsibilities

Some Angels like to drive and go a little further afield, and that's absolutely a conversation you can have with the individual.

But we're not looking to unnecessarily run up petrol bills, travel costs or have people spending their precious time sitting in a car.

It's about **employing local people to look after local customers.**

Thanks for asking, Kirsty. ⭐

📅 **Can you build a business around school life?**

One of the things we encourage our Domestic Angels business owners to do is focus more of their business growth during term time.

Then, when the school holidays arrive, take the foot off the accelerator a little. ☀️

It doesn't mean the business stops or that there won't be times when it needs you.

It means you have more control over **when and how you work.**

And there's another benefit. Many of our Angels are parents too, so taking some of the pressure off during the school holidays can work rather nicely for everybody. 😊
