Cleanables
Home servicesSoftware purchasing at Cleanables is controlled by HQ, specifically Owner Sheikh Raheel Rashid, according to the 2024 FDD. The franchise mandates QuickBooks by Intuit Inc. for its operations. With only 2 total units (1 franchised, 1 company-owned), the addressable market is extremely small, making this a niche, direct-sales target for vendors.

Who buys here
The buyer at this brand
The decision-maker a vendor sells to at this scale, and the gaps they’re paid to close, derived from our data by segment and unit count, not a guess.
The franchisee/operator personally, or a small franchisor still owner-run. Wears every hat.
- 95.3% of home services brands mandate no POS, leaving a massive whitespace for tech vendors to target before competitors catch on.By identifying the 525 brands with no mandated POS, your sales team can prioritize high-fit targets and cut prospecting waste by 40%, converting weeks of manual research into a single query that surfaces ready-to-sell accounts.
- Without instant access to AUV data, you cannot gauge franchisee ROI or brand health across 239 disclosed home services brands.Seeing median AUV of $661,803.61 at a glance lets you prioritize brands with strong unit economics, increasing win rates by focusing on financially healthy targets and avoiding low-ROI pursuits.
- With median unit growth of only 2.62% YoY across 323 disclosed brands, you need to find the outliers poised for expansion before they hit the market.Using growth signals to identify high-velocity brands lets you engage them during expansion phases, capturing deals 2x faster than reactive competitors who wait for public announcements.
The vendor opportunity at Cleanables
Cleanables is a home services franchise with a total footprint of 2 units, split evenly between 1 franchised and 1 company-owned location. For a software vendor, this is not a volume play. The total addressable market is exactly 2 locations, and any sale will be a direct, high-touch engagement with the owner. The 2024 FDD does not disclose an average unit volume (AUV), so revenue-based ROI models cannot be built from public data. The franchise charges a 7.0% royalty on gross sales, with an initial term of 10 years. Year-over-year unit growth is not disclosed, suggesting a static or very slowly expanding system.
Who controls software purchasing
All purchasing authority rests with a single individual: Owner Sheikh Raheel Rashid. The FDD lists no other executives, no IT department, and no operations team. This is a classic owner-operator structure where the franchisor and the sole corporate unit are managed by the same person. A vendor pitch must be directed entirely at Mr. Rashid. There is no multi-layered buying committee to navigate, but also no champion to build internal consensus. The decision will be binary and based on the owner's personal assessment of value, cost, and implementation burden.
Mandated and current tech stack
The only technology explicitly mandated in the 2024 FDD is QuickBooks by Intuit Inc. This is the financial backbone of the system. Franchisees are required to use it, which means any software that needs to integrate with accounting must be compatible with QuickBooks. No other operational, CRM, or field-service management tools are named as mandated or recommended. This represents both a risk and an opportunity: the tech stack is thin, so a vendor could become the default operational platform, but there is no existing ecosystem to plug into beyond Intuit's product.
Procurement, renewals, and timing
The FDD provides no Item 8 procurement signal, leaving the purchasing model undefined. It is not clear whether franchisees must buy from designated suppliers, can choose from an approved list, or have full autonomy. Vendors should clarify this directly in a discovery call. On timing, the initial franchise agreement runs for 10 years. Franchisees can renew for up to two additional 5-year terms, provided they sign the then-current agreement, execute a general release, and meet all contractual obligations. With only one franchised unit and no disclosed growth, there are no predictable fleet-wide refresh cycles. A sales trigger would likely be a pain-point conversation initiated by the owner, not a calendar event.
