Total Addressable Market (TAM)

Overview of the full market potential, including total customer base and revenue potential if there were no restrictions.

Estimated Market Size

There are approximately 10 million households in Australia (as of the latest data), with a significant portion consisting of busy individuals and families who could benefit from a time-saving solution for home cleaning. Additionally, about 2 million small rental properties may also represent opportunities for landlords or tenants seeking affordable cleaning tools.

Market Value

TAM is estimated at AUD $1 billion annually, assuming a penetration rate of products priced around AUD $100 per unit and high demand across larger demographic groups such as working families, young professionals, and the elderly.


Serviceable Available Market (SAM)

Portion of the TAM that aligns with the business’s target audience, capabilities, and geographic reach.

Target Demographics

The SAM focuses on approximately 50% of Australian households, particularly 5 million homes composed of busy working professionals, families, and individuals over the age of 50. These groups prioritize efficiency, convenience, and cost-effectiveness while avoiding expensive cleaning services.


Market Reach

NoScrub can realistically engage this portion of the market through e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, a direct-to-consumer e-commerce website, and retail partnerships, allowing access to urban and suburban areas where demand for cleaning solutions is high.


Serviceable Obtainable Market (SOM)

The actual market share the business is expected to capture based on competition, marketing effectiveness, and operational scale.

Competitive Landscape

The competitive landscape includes high-end electric brushes with premium pricing and several inexpensive but less effective manual cleaning tools. NoScrub differentiates itself by targeting the mid-market with an affordable, versatile, and ergonomic solution. This segmentation could allow capturing 20% of the SAM in the first 2 years of business.

Customer Acquisition Potential

With an aggressive digital advertising strategy, initial SOM is estimated at 20% of the SAM, equating to 1 million customers within two years. With an average product price of AUD $100, this translates into potential revenues of AUD $100 million, bolstered by repeat accessory sales.

Market Growth & Opportunities

Emerging trends, innovations, and areas of expansion for the business in the Australian market.

Industry Trends

The Australian cleaning products industry is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.5% over the next five years, driven by an increasing focus on hygiene, convenience-driven buying behavior, and the rise of time-saving home appliances.

Expansion Potential

Once NoScrub establishes itself, expansion opportunities include launching additional attachments for niche cleaning needs, developing models targeting commercial users (e.g., small business kitchens), and entering new geographic markets such as New Zealand or Southeast Asia. In addition, partnerships with home improvement retailers and subscription-based accessory sales could drive recurring revenue growth.
