Your Calendar’s Full. Do You Know Which Jobs Actually Made You Money?
For cleaning business owners whose revenue looks fine on paper but who can’t say which jobs, clients, or crews are actually profitable versus barely breaking even. Margin Monitor tracks quoted versus actual cost on every job and tells you why the bad ones lost money.
What every cleaning business owner already knows.
Your calendar’s full, revenue’s up from last year, and you still feel like you’re working harder for less. You have no easy way to tell which jobs, which clients, or which crew are actually making you money versus barely breaking even; the answer is buried across quotes, timesheets, and receipts that nobody’s ever cross-referenced.
A single job that quietly runs 90 minutes over the quoted labor time can wipe out $30 to $50 of margin; multiply that across 40 jobs a month and you’re bleeding $1,200 to $2,000 without a single red flag on your bank statement.
Margin Monitor, built cleaning-native.
Every job automatically tracks quoted cost against actual cost and shows the real gross margin, no spreadsheet required. Jobs whose margin falls below your threshold get flagged on the dashboard with a machine-generated reason, like underestimated travel time, instead of just a red number. Reports break profitability down by client and compare each pricing calculator’s estimates against real job outcomes over time.
You catch a bad-margin job the same week it happens, not at tax time, and a manager can mark it reviewed once it’s understood instead of it sitting as an unexplained red flag forever.
Every feature in one place.
The business impact, in dollars.
More revenue doesn’t automatically mean more profit, and without job-level visibility a pricing mistake can repeat for months before anyone notices. Seeing margin and its cause on every job, every client, and every calculator turns pricing and staffing into decisions backed by real numbers instead of a gut feeling that the business is doing fine.
Frequently asked about Margin Monitor.
What does Margin Monitor do?
It tracks quoted versus actual cost on every job automatically and flags any job whose margin falls below your threshold, so you know exactly which work is actually profitable.
How does it know why a job lost money?
It compares quoted line items and hours against what actually happened on the job and generates a human-readable reason, like underestimated travel time, instead of leaving you to guess.
Can I see profitability by client, not just by job?
Yes. An account-level report shows which clients are consistently profitable and which are underpriced or expensive to serve, so you can adjust pricing or service level per client.
Does it check whether my pricing calculators are accurate?
Yes. A calculator accuracy report compares each calculator’s quoted estimates against real job outcomes over time, showing which rates are systematically running high or low.
Is Margin Monitor included in the base CleanerHQ plan?
Yes. Margin Monitor is one of 20 modules included on every CleanerHQ seat at $19/mo per admin seat plus $5/mo per crew seat. No feature tiers or add-on pricing.
