Business Plan
Most of my business comes from Instagram. I pass out my business cards to all local businesses in the surrounding Stone Mountain area. I follow all the businesses I pass my cards out to and use them periodically. I am a Black woman. Born in raised in Georgia. Yes, I’ve had hardships just like everyone else although mine may be more horrific and tragic. I was able to rise above it all. I have 2.5 degrees. The half is me working to complete my MBA currently. I also work full time at Anthem inc in the Finance department Monday through Friday. But that is not the life i want to live. I want to be my own boss. My cleaning business is not just a side job. I want to have at least 50 associates helping them get their lives together. I want my business to be able to help battered women like i how i used to be to get out of their situation and live a happy life. I enjoy cleaning and it has helped me get through so many tragic and tough times. No medications and no amount of therapy could’ve helped me get through the murder of my daughter Emani Moss. Invest in me because i have overcome tragedies and misunderstandings. Invest in me because i am from Atlanta and i am 40 years old. No traffic tickets ever in my life and no criminal record. Invest in me because you believe in my struggle and the great things that are coming my way. Invest in me because it is a virus out here killing people and i started a cleaning business to help keep the state of Georgia clean.

Self Identified Competition
Molly maids My prices are lower. I am the one that comes out to see the clients personally. I actually answer the phone when someone calls or texts with an appointment. All my cleaning associates will be black women just like me.
