In 2023, Grayden and I met in seventh grade through classes, we were seated together, and we quickly sparked. We had tons of shared interests that brought us together, one being business and entrepreneurship. We both had entrepreneurial minds and had attempted to make money in many ways; one way for me was trading and selling sports cards, and for Grayden, it was trash can cleaning and pressure washing. Having these experiences taught us valuable skills like marketing, negotiating, selling, and customer service. Within a few weeks of becoming friends, we had come up with the idea of going door to door and hanging up fliers to pressure wash driveways. For months, we had not received a single call or even any interest, until one day, while we were on vacation in California, Grayden received a call asking if we would be interested in cleaning windows. Although we had never tried it, we were not going to say no to an opportunity to make some money. So the morning before the job, we went to Ace Hardware to buy squeegees and supplies, and we briefly practiced on a few of our parents' windows. The first job went great; we made what seemed like a million dollars to us as 13-year-olds and decided we would start window washing. We would go door to door for hours, while simultaneously posting online on platforms like Facebook and Nextdoor. After doing this for months, we had built a solid reputation in the community and started getting frequent jobs. We then started reinvesting all of our money, getting cards and shirts, and building our website. A few months went by, and we started offering car detailing services, which was a big hit and went great. Fast forward to 2025, and we are a fully insured LLC, have bought our first truck, hired our first employee, have been featured in a few magazines, and have cleaned multiple 4-million-dollar houses. We have already come so far and overcame many obstacles along the way, but we are not even close to being done, we have so many more goals to complete in 2026 and beyond!
