West Coast Florida Client: Luchy Herrera
Cleaning with a Purpose and Passion
Luchy Herrera, a Colombian entrepreneur with a strong commitment to creating jobs in the United States and supporting the Hispanic community, is the founder of Luchy Luxe Cleaning Co., LLC. Established in 2019 and based in Tampa, Florida, her business provides high-quality cleaning services with a personalized touch. Backed by studies in Environmental and Industrial Engineering and certifications in Quality, Environmental, and OSHA systems, Luchy brought a wealth of knowledge and expertise to her entrepreneurial journey.
Strategic Growth with Prospera’s Support
In November 2023, Luchy connected with Prospera through her accountant, who recommended the organization’s services. At the time, Luchy needed guidance on legal matters, including drafting contracts, verifying her company’s structure, and strategies to expand her market share and increase sales. With Prospera’s support, she received personalized business consulting, participated in educational seminars, and was awarded business advancement services, including a legal assessment, marketing and sales plan, and a branding kit.
More recently, Prospera awarded Luchy a business advancement service for procurement readiness, equipping her with tools to explore government contracts and larger-scale opportunities. She has also accessed capital through Prospera’s guidance and continues to make significant strides. Additionally, with the help of a Prospera-recommended client, Luchy is improving her website to strengthen her online presence and better connect with her growing customer base.
Reflecting on Prospera’s role in her journey, Luchy shares, “Being with Prospera gives me an advantage. Many clients know about Prospera, and it provides recognition that helps at the county level. This has been invaluable to my business.”
Advancing Towards Greater Success
With Prospera’s assistance, Luchy Luxe Cleaning Co. has consolidated its operations and gained recognition within the local community. Luchy is now working on obtaining minority certifications and expanding her client base to drive further growth. Her determination and commitment to excellence continue to position her business as a trusted name in Tampa.
Advice for Aspiring Hispanic Entrepreneurs
Luchy encourages other Hispanic entrepreneurs to remain persistent and genuine, emphasizing that client satisfaction is key. “A satisfied client will provide referrals that are invaluable for growth and progress,” she shares. She credits Prospera with helping her identify opportunities, address weaknesses, and build a strong business structure point by point.
