It’s Been a While

It’s been a while since I’ve written a post, and I wanted to take a minute to say hello.

Over the last several months, I’ve been incredibly busy helping cleaning companies and working at JanisterPro. I’ve enjoyed every minute of it, but it has definitely pulled me away from writing as often as I’d like.

I’d love to hear from other cleaning business owners. What’s going well in your company right now? What challenges are you facing? Whether it’s finding employees, winning new clients, scheduling, pricing, invoicing, or something completely different, I’d genuinely like to know what’s on your mind and heart.

As many of you know, I built and grew my own cleaning company from the ground up. It wasn’t always easy. There were plenty of long days, mistakes, setbacks, and moments where I wasn’t sure what the next step should be. But those experiences helped me build that business, and I’m proud of it.

Last month, my wife took over the cleaning company, which has allowed me to focus my time and energy on JanisterPro and helping other cleaning business owners.

One thing I’ve learned is that no matter how successful a cleaning company becomes, new challenges always appear. The problems can change into new ones. That’s why I enjoy talking with owners and learning what’s happening in their businesses right now.

Leave a comment, send me a message, or reach out however you’d like. Just say hi.

I’d love to hear your story, learn about your challenges, and see if there’s anything I can do to help.

I look forward to hearing from you.

First impressions matter — especially in the cleaning business.

You can have the best pricing, the best systems, and great service… but if you show up to a client meeting looking unprepared, it can hurt trust before the conversation even starts.

I just shared a new blog on JanisterPro about how to dress for cleaning business meetings so you can show up looking professional, confident, and ready to win the account.

If you’ve ever wondered:

👉 Should I wear branded gear?
👉 Is business casual enough?
👉 What should I wear for walkthroughs and proposals?

This will help.

Clients rarely leave because of one big mistake.

Most of the time, they leave because of small problems repeated quietly over time.

A missed restroom check.
Trash left behind.
Poor communication.
A manager who has to keep repeating the same issue.

Not enough to cause a major complaint.
But enough to slowly break trust.

That’s the silent reason contracts stop renewing.

It’s rarely about price.
It’s about confidence.

Clients want to feel like they never have to wonder if the job is getting done.

They want consistency.
They want accountability.
They want follow-through.
They want peace of mind.
They want professionalism they can trust.

When that disappears, they start looking elsewhere—even if they never say it out loud.

By the time they mention cancellation, the decision was usually made weeks ago.

Retention isn’t built during renewal season. It’s built every single day through systems, accountability, and follow-through.

Running a cleaning company is one thing.

Building software for the entire industry is another.

Right now, I’m doing both.

I’m still out here with Loyal Leaf Cleaning— showing up, doing the work, building relationships, and making sure every job is done right.

At the same time, I built JanisterPro — a platform designed to help cleaning business owners start running a real businesses.

Because here’s the truth…

You can’t build something great for this industry if you’ve never been in it.

I’m in the field.
I know the problems.
And I’m building the solution.

This isn’t easy.
Long days. Late nights. Constant pressure.

But I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Because I know where this is going.

👉 From cleaning buildings
👉 To helping hundreds (soon thousands) of cleaning companies

This is bigger than me.
This is about changing the game for our industry
