Wonderboys Cleaning: From Student Side Hustle to RM600K Business

How did Wonderboys Cleaning turn RM4,000 in startup capital into a business that makes RM600,000 in annual revenue?

From doom scrolling on Instagram at 2 a.m. to building a thriving cleaning services business, today we dive into Sathya Selvarajah’s journey with Wonderboys Cleaning. Launched in 2019 with just RM4,000 in startup capital, what began as a university side hustle has grown into a full-fledged business generating RM600,000 in annual revenue with strong margins.

With over 500 clients serviced, including well-known names like Kapten Batik and Common Ground, and a partnership with Knight Frank, this episode of Open For Business explores how Sathya started and grew Wonderboys Cleaning, the challenges he faced, the strategies he used to scale, and his plans to expand beyond KL.
