Automating Without Overwhelm

If you're running a cleaning business, you know how chaotic things can get—leads coming in from all directions, appointments shifting constantly, invoices piling up. It's a lot.

At ScaleMyCleaningBusiness, we’ve hit that wall too. And instead of hiring more admin help, we’re exploring something different: automation with n8n.

We're starting small. Here's what step one looks like:

A webhook in Slack to catch new messages as they come in

An AI agent to receive the message and create an answer

Slack again to send the answer to both our team and our clients

Is it working perfectly yet? No.

Are we figuring it out in real time? Absolutely.

This post kicks off a 12-part series where we’ll share our full journey—mistakes, wins, and what we’d do differently—so other cleaning businesses can learn with us (or skip the headaches).

Up next: Building our first webhook and troubleshooting the early hiccups.

Follow along if you’re trying to streamline the chaos, too.
