About Me
About Me – Craig, Founder of Bassetlaw Pro-Clean Ltd & Hopefully Your Trainer/Mentor
Hi, I’m Craig, and if you’ve found your way here, chances are you’re looking for a change - maybe you’re tired of working long hours for someone else, frustrated by job insecurity, or simply wanting more control over your future.
I know that feeling because I was in the exact same position five years ago. I spent years working in the engineering industry, doing shifts that drained my time and energy, with little to show for it beyond a monthly payslip. The idea of being my own boss was something I thought about constantly, but like many people, I wasn’t sure where to start or if it was even possible.
Then one day, after a particularly bad day at work, I decided to stop wondering and actually do something about it.
I started Bassetlaw Pro-Clean Ltd as a side business while still working full-time. It wasn’t easy - I was working all day, then spending my evenings marketing, quoting jobs, and learning everything I could about carpet and upholstery cleaning. I made mistakes, learned from them, and kept going.
Within a year, my "side hustle" was bringing in more income than my full-time job. I had built a solid customer base, won contracts with estate agents, landlords, and even local councils, and gained the confidence to finally do what so many dream of - I handed in my notice and went full-time with my business. I had sacked my boss!!!!
Fast forward to today, and Bassetlaw Pro-Clean is a trusted name in professional carpet and upholstery cleaning, working with homeowners, landlords, businesses, and even the NHS. We’ve grown through word of mouth, repeat customers, and a reputation for getting results.
What Running a Cleaning Business Really Looks Like
Unlike those "get rich quick" promises you see online, running a cleaning business is real work - but it’s real work with real rewards.
📌 I know what it’s like to spend months figuring out pricing and learning how to deal with customers.
📌 I’ve been through the challenges of winning commercial contracts, quoting large jobs, and handling the logistics of a growing business.
📌 I’ve made mistakes, learned from them, and built systems that actually work - not just in theory, but in the real world.
And that’s exactly why my training is different.
Instead of just teaching you "how to clean carpets," I show you how to actually run a successful business - from setting your prices correctly to dealing with difficult customers, marketing effectively, and scaling up when you're ready.

Final Thoughts
I know what it’s like to hesitate, to wonder if this is the right move, and to question whether you can really make it work. I did this for years sadly!
I also know what it feels like to hand in your notice, walk away from a job you don’t love, and finally be in control of your own future.
If that’s something you want for yourself, I’d love to help you get there.
