The founder story
"I started ProCleanings in 2013. By 2020, I was managing 50+ employees across 100+ commercial sites — and spending 30–40 hours a week drowning in spreadsheet chaos. No software understood what it actually meant to run a cleaning company. So I built it myself."

The problem with generic tools
Connecteam, Jobber, and Swept manage employees. They don't manage service delivery. None of them give cleaning operators the proof-of-service infrastructure that protects contracts and prevents client disputes.
Why cleaning is different
Cleaning operations run on tight margins, early mornings, and high client expectations. A no-show at 6 AM doesn't become a problem at 9 AM — it becomes a problem the moment a client walks into an uncleaned office.
Battle-tested in production
ProTeams has been running both of Damon's companies since 2020 — not as a side experiment, but as the operational backbone for 50+ employees across 100+ sites, every single day.
