Franchise Snapshot: Domestic Angels
I recently spoke with Sam from Domestic Angels, a friendly and approachable franchise owner based in central south Dorset. Domestic Angels is looking to recruit five additional franchisees across the UK this year.
Key Facts:
- Franchise Fee: £10,000
- Earning Potential: Approx. £1,500/month part-time
- Ideal Hours: 12–16 hours/week
- Turnover Target: Kept under the VAT threshold (around £80,000/year)
What is Domestic Angels?
Domestic Angels is a management-style franchise, meaning you won’t be doing the cleaning yourself—you’ll manage a team that provides domestic services. It’s particularly well-suited for individuals looking for a flexible business that fits around family or other commitments.
Franchisees have access to a centralised financial system and a smart scheduling diary, helping streamline admin and keep operations efficient. While I didn’t explore the tech in detail, the focus of our chat was on what a franchisee actually gains from joining.
Who is it for?
Sam shared that the franchise is particularly popular among mums and people seeking work-life balance. One inspiring example is a woman who spent over 30 years in cleaning and customer service. After being widowed, she became a Domestic Angels franchisee—now she works the hours she chooses and hits her income goals with confidence and satisfaction.
I buy from people.
What I mean by that is—it’s often more important (and a real telltale sign of the quality and care behind a service) to look at the person behind the business.
Talking with Sam was professional, friendly, and genuinely caring. What a lovely person—someone I’d certainly enjoy working with.
Of course, you should always do your due diligence. I’d personally want to know more about the mechanics of the business—how the systems work, for example. So if what you’ve read here sounds interesting, I’d definitely suggest booking a call with Domestic Angels to explore whether the franchise is a good fit for you.
And remember—we offer free 20-minute mentoring calls if you’d like to talk through your thoughts or get some guidance.
Final Thoughts
Domestic Angels offers a supportive, flexible franchise ideal for those looking to manage a small business around a busy life. With a modest investment and practical systems in place, franchisees can start earning steadily—and potentially even earn while they sleep.
