As we head into the fall season, Corvus is overjoyed to spotlight Ms. Laura Torres of Little Rock! Ms. Torres has been a dedicated Franchise Owner with Corvus of Little Rock since 2013—what an incredible achievement! Over the years, she has been named Franchisee of the Month for Little Rock twice, first in January 2020 and again in June 2024.

A Commitment to Excellence

Shayna Hula of Corvus of Little Rock praises Ms. Torres for her tireless work ethic and the pride she takes in servicing her accounts. “She is a hard worker and takes pride in cleaning her accounts. All of her accounts love her cleaning. One customer even signed an increase because she was the best they’ve ever had and he couldn’t lose her,” Hula shares.

Ms. Torres’s dedication extends beyond her own business; she has generously helped other franchise owners by training them and even translating for them. She’s become well known for her signature toilet-cleaning motto: “Scrub the toilets until they bubble.”

A Legacy of Success

Thanks to her hard work and success with her Corvus franchise, Ms. Torres has accomplished remarkable personal milestones. She has been able to purchase three homes, four vehicles, and has traveled to spend time with her 13 grandchildren.

Words of Wisdom for Aspiring Business Owners

When asked for advice to share with other business owners, Ms. Torres emphasizes the importance of relationships and diligence. “Make friends and build relationships with your contact in each account,” she advises. She also highlights the importance of thoroughness when expanding, saying, “When you are ready to expand your business, make sure you are doing a background check on anyone you are interested in hiring. Once you have expanded, make sure you are constantly checking in and going out to your accounts to make sure they are doing a good job.”

Looking Ahead

Ms. Torres’s journey is an inspiring story of dedication, success, and community. Her hard work and commitment to her business and customers have allowed her to achieve incredible milestones, and we are proud to have her as part of the Corvus family.

Congratulations, Ms. Torres, on your remarkable accomplishments. We look forward to many more years of success with you!

The Franchise Owner Spotlight of the month for July is a motivated young man named Aveon Frierson. Mr. Frierson opened his business with Corvus of Little Rock in April of 2021. He is in his early twenties, and he operates his business on top of working another full-time job.

Mr. Frierson has the capacity to take on larger accounts and has been steadily growing his monthly revenue. In the 2023 Franchisee Survey, he said that the thing that kept him most motivated in his business was “customer satisfaction.”

That motivational outlook is paying off. “It is rare to ever have a complaint from a customer about him,” reports Trey Kimbrell, Regional Director of Corvus of Little Rock. “He is just on top of it. Aveon is highly respected, and it goes both ways. He goes above and beyond to take care of his accounts and customers.” Mr. Kimbrell says that Mr. Frierson makes himself available for Corvus’ needs as well. “He’s always prepared and he’s always available to swing by the office when we need him.”

Partnering with such a motivated and driven businessman has been an honor for Corvus. We are excited to see what the future holds for him and are proud to be a part of it. Thank you for all you do, Mr. Frierson!

As a Franchise Owner for the last ten years, Ms. Sherry Gallon of Corvus of Little Rock works full-time in her business and is still expanding and taking on new accounts. Her motivation to run her own business started with wanting to have the freedom to spend more time with her kids and grandkids, which she now has the flexibility to do.

The biggest focus Sherry has in her business is building relationships with her customers and making sure they are happy with her service. If Ms. Gallon has any concerns from customers, she always tries to meet them in person to have direct communication and address the issues quickly. While she prioritizes meeting with the customer or Corvus in person as much as possible, Sherry likes to reserve Friday’s for her grandkids.

Ms. Shayna Hula, Regional Director of Corvus of Little Rock, says Ms. Gallon “is a hard worker with a positive attitude and always has a smile on her face.” It’s clear that Ms. Gallon takes pride in the work she does and takes ownership of her business. If an employee is not meeting the cleaning expectations, Ms. Gallon will take over the account to ensure the highest level of service is provided. With her dedication and customer service skills, we have no doubts Sherry Gallon will continue to be a successful Franchise Owner for many years to come!

Franchisee Spotlight – Tara Amuimuia, Corvus of Little Rock

July’s Franchisee Spotlight Series features Corvus of Little Rock Franchise Owner Tara Amuimuia. Read on to learn more about the standout Franchisee who goes above and beyond to Make Lives Better!

To keep up with the Franchisee Spotlight Series and all things Corvus, follow us on Instagram! @corvus_janitorial_franchising

Corvus of Little Rock Franchise Owner Tara Amuimuia opened her Corvus Franchise in September 2019. After hearing about Corvus through a Franchise Owner who cleaned the criminal justice facility she was working at during the time, Mrs. Amuimuia inquired about franchising opportunities herself. In just six months, the standout Franchisee left this job to operate her Corvus Franchise full-time.

Mrs. Amuimuia’s friendly personality and strong communication skills certainly contribute to her quick success. Every month, she emails her customers to check-in and see if they are satisfied with their cleaning services. “Her main goal is to do a great job and please the customer,” says Director of Operations Shayna Hula.

An example of a time Mrs. Amuimuia went above and beyond to ensure her customers were happy occurred after making a mistake. She received a complaint from a customer, and after going back to the account to check her work, she realized that she had been distracted and missed some things. Mrs. Amuimuia cleaned more than she was required to and left a hand-written note apologizing to the customer to make up for this. With a positive attitude and work ethic like this, it is no wonder why customers speak so highly of her!

When Mrs. Amuimuia is not busy running her cleaning franchise, you will likely find her cooking Italian and Asian fusion, hanging out at the beach, or spending time with her two sons.

Thank you, Mrs. Amuimuia, for being such an outstanding partner to Corvus. We are so grateful for all that you do and look forward to watching your continued success!

Reviews from Corvus Janitorial Customers:

Corvus of Charlotte:

“We started working with Corvus in July 2015 and to date, have had a great experience with them. They had some local management changes a couple of years ago and that went well with no change in service (which can happen!). When we ask for something, the response is quick and efficient. We had a COVID-19 potential exposure in our office and they were able to come out the next day and do a thorough sanitizing of our office suite. All of their folks have been great but Jodean climbs to the top of the list – she is there for us! We thank you, Corvus!”

Corvus of Chicago:

“Corvus has been servicing our Elk Grove facility for over a year and we are pleased with the quality of service and their communication. Regular visits from a local Manager are a welcome addition and provide a platform for us to submit specific feedback regarding the scheduled service, special requests and explore additional services that we may require.”

Corvus of Cincinnati:

“Very detail oriented. I requested specific things. The first time the crew came they missed something. I made a phone call to Christine one time and they went above and beyond my expectations. Fantastic crew!!!”

Corvus of Columbus:

“It takes the hard work out of finding good help. Great communication, excellent value and good people to work with.”

Corvus of Jacksonville:

“I have worked in child care for years, never satisfied with any of our janitorial companies until now. Charles is amazing at what he does and very responsive. They provide a log book for daily communication and quarterly evaluations, asking us what they can improve on. Spencer, the supervisor, is very easy to speak with and always checking in. Not only do they provide great cleaning services, they are now offering electrostatic disinfecting – which we did today in our classrooms. I am very satisfied with Corvus services and would recommend them to anyone!”

Corvus of Lexington:

“The company I work for has used Corvus for a number of years and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the team on the ground to management, we were taken care of on every aspect. If there was ever a question or an extra request, the team was always accommodating.”

Corvus of Little Rock:

“Top notch service. Shayna and Jennifer are great. You can count on them to always follow up to ensure that you are pleased with the service. Had a couple of “emergency” cleans come up over the last couple of years and they have always gone out of their way to cover my poor planning and made me come out looking like a star when visitors arrived.. Would recommend to anyone. A+++”

Corvus of Louisville:

“So glad to know David Villafana and Corvus! They use green products, well trained employees, and methodical cleaning.”

Plenty of opportunity to grow your franchise. The main thing I like is how easy it is to contact the partners at the office or corporate and how knowledgeable they are when it comes to different types of problems that may occur! Thank You!!!”

Corvus of St. Louis:

“Zion Lutheran School has been with Corvus since 2000. I love the communication we have with Corvus. They are so responsive to our cleaning needs at school. It is nice to have cleaning issues taken care of, and not have to deal with that during a busy school year. Corvus has been a great partner in our school growth.”
