This week on the podcast we are joined by Neel Parekh. Neel is the Founder and CEO of MaidThis & MaidThis Franchise, which helps homeowners and short-term rental hosts (Airbnb, VRBO, etc) with their cleaner needs. Neel’s business has generated millions in revenue while having a fully remote team, and now he’s on a mission to help others achieve the same. Neel has been a “digital nomad” for almost 5 years and still vagabonding around the world (pre-COVID at least). In this episode, Neel shares what inspired him to create MaidThis, the process of building a business and how he was able to scale it quickly, how to balance work and travel when running a local business remotely, and much more.

Enjoy!
