Owner story · Since Foundations 2024

“My business has transformed.”

Kimberly Sandberg came to Foundations at The Mansion in March 2024. About a year later, she wrote to Liz to share what had changed.

+26%weekly income
−21%payroll
+24.5%average hourly charge
−49%call-outs
Since we last saw each other at the end of Foundations in March 2024, so much has changed — and I owe an incredible amount of that to you (and the other participants and coaches) and the advice and support you gave me. … I am genuinely happier, more productive, and I finally know exactly how to prioritize and choose what I work on each day. … Simply put, Liz — I owe so much of my quality of life today to you. … Once I hit that one million mark, I intend to do the Foundations SCALE.

The work

Work on the business, not in it

SCALE is a working experience. You step away from the daily demands of the company to make the decisions and build the systems your next stage needs.

Build the structure

Build the structure your business needs for its next stage of growth.

Remove bottlenecks

Identify the places where the business still depends on you, and decide what changes.

Plan the next 3–6 months

Leave with a clear plan for the next three to six months.

Systems you can use

Work on systems you can take back to your company and put into practice.

Make the decisions

Make the decisions you’ve been putting off, with other operators to pressure‑test them.

Who should attend

Built for owners and top managers

Cleaning business owners
  • You’ve already proven you can grow
  • You have a team in place and manage people, not just the work
  • You feel the pressure of too much depending on you
  • You’re solving the same problems over and over
  • You’re ready to build for your next stage
Top managers
  • You are responsible for team performance and execution
  • You are stepping into higher‑level leadership
  • You want to think beyond daily operations
  • You are ready to help build a scalable company, not just run one
Why people come

The room matters

Being surrounded by other serious operators changes:

  • What you see as possible
  • What you tolerate in your business
  • The speed at which you make decisions

That’s hard to replicate anywhere else.
