Professional cleaners trained with the Glisten system
The Glisten Method
The training happens while they clean.
Paying a new hire to sit and watch videos is expensive, and a good number of them quit before you ever see a return on it. That money is simply gone.
So my cleaners learn in the home, on the job, from the first minute of the first day. They are producing while they are learning, and the training pays for itself as it happens.
Katie Pearse, Founder

Student reviews
This first lesson was an eye opener for me; well-presented and very informative. It has boosted my confidence. I will no longer hesitate to charge what my service is worth. I wish I knew it before accepting every single job coming my way and closing my cleaning business out of frustration later on. This first lesson gave me hope to start over with a good and strong foundation. I can't wait to learn more and apply Glisten Academy's success formula. Thank you so much!

I do not know what I would do without Glisten Academy. I feel more in control with this program. This is by far the most thoroughly instructed step-by-step course out there.

You have really given so much time to these training programs and have a way of communicating things so simple but effectively. Your confidence with yourself and your methods have finally given me the confidence I was looking for to get my boutique cleaning business established. Thanks again!
