Savita marks 10 years of independence in life and business
Savita Prasad recently hit a huge milestone – 10 years as a CrestClean franchisee. A whole decade of delivering top-notch cleaning and building great relationships with her customers.
Her journey started thanks to a little advice from her sisters who were already with CrestClean. So, in 2015, after spending a few years at home with her young son, she decided to give it a try. For Savita, CrestClean was the perfect way to get back to work while still having time for her family. Owning a franchise gave her the flexibility she needed to balance work and family life.
“We wanted to wait for something that worked for us. The business gave us more time with the baby,” she says.
Like any new venture, it took time to learn the ropes. But now, running the business feels effortless, and she’s come a long way from her humble beginnings with a modest turnover. Today, she manages 11 sites and leads a team of five employees.
When asked what she loves most about running her own business, her answer is simple and honest.
“There’s nobody to boss me around,” she laughs.
Now a leader herself, Savita takes pride in creating a positive, supportive environment for her team. Known for her kind and gentle approach, she ensures her staff feel valued and respected. When mistakes happen, she uses them as opportunities to guide and teach, so everyone learns and improves together.
“I’m a soft-hearted person. I really love working with my team,” she says
Over the years, Savita has had plenty of reasons to be proud. Buying two homes and now working on a third is a huge achievement that she credits to her CrestClean franchise. Despite the challenges life has thrown her way, her business has given her the strength and stability to push through and stand on her own two feet.
“The business has kept me going and given me something to concentrate on,” she says.
And she’s not slowing down any time soon. “I’m not going anywhere. I’m happy and CrestClean is very supportive.”
