Every Report Your Cleaning Business Actually Needs — Built Into Allison

For cleaning business owners with 5–25 employees who are tired of cobbling together spreadsheets, exports, and guesswork to understand how their business is performing.

You finished a busy month. You know you were slammed. But when someone asks how much you made, you're not totally sure. You have invoices in one place, payroll in another, customer feedback buried in your email, and a vague sense that the numbers are good — you just can't see them clearly.

That's not a you problem. That's a software problem.

Most business software gives you a place to run jobs. It doesn't give you a clear picture of your business. Allison does both. Here's every report you get — and what each one is actually for.

The Cleaning Business Reports Most Owners Are Missing

Running a cleaning business without real reporting is like driving without a dashboard. You can feel whether things are going well. But you can't see your speed, your fuel level, or what's about to go wrong.

Most cleaning business owners are making decisions based on gut feel — how busy they feel, whether the phone is ringing, whether payroll feels right this week. The owners who grow past that stage are the ones who can look at actual numbers and make actual decisions.

Allison's reporting is built around the questions you're already asking. You just haven't had a clean place to find the answers.

Your Monthly Business Snapshot: Revenue, Customers, and Performance

The main Reports page in Allison gives you a full picture of the month — without having to pull it together yourself.

At the top, you see revenue earned, how much has been collected, and projected revenue based on everything on the schedule — including jobs that haven't been invoiced yet. Next to that, your YTD total so you always know where you stand for the year.

Below that, four numbers that matter: cleans scheduled, average job price, average gross profit per clean, and quotes created vs. converted. Month-over-month comparisons on all of them.

You also see your recurring vs. one-time revenue split — one of the most important numbers in a cleaning business. Recurring revenue is predictable. One-time revenue is not. Knowing where you sit tells you a lot about how stable your business actually is.

Bookkeeping and Financial Reporting for Cleaning Businesses

If you have a bookkeeper or accountant, they need clean data. Allison makes that easy.

The Invoice export gives you every invoice created during a selected date range in a CSV — ready to drop into Google Sheets, Excel, or QuickBooks. The Transaction export shows every payment collected and links each one back to its invoice. Run them both at the end of the month and your bookkeeper has everything they need.

These aren't fancy reports. They're just accurate, exportable, and built into the same software you're already using to run jobs. No third-party integration required, no manual data entry, no reconciling two different systems.

If your current software makes you do this by hand, that's time you're spending on something Allison does automatically.

Payroll Reporting That Works the Way Cleaning Businesses Actually Pay

Payroll in the cleaning industry is complicated. You've got hourly cleaners, percentage-based pay, per-day rates, tips — sometimes all of the above on the same team. Most generic payroll tools weren't built for that.

Allison handles the structure first. You set each cleaner's pay type when you add them — hourly, percentage, or per day — and Allison applies that to every job they complete. When it's time to run payroll, you select the date range, hit Calculate, and get a full breakdown: by employee, by job, and by tips earned.

Export it and it drops straight into Gusto, QuickBooks, or Google Sheets.

And if a specific job calls for different pay — a harder clean, a special situation, a one-time adjustment — you can override any cleaner's rate at the job level without touching their default setup. The default structure keeps payroll fast and accurate. The override keeps it flexible.

The End of Day Report: Close Out Every Day With Confidence

Most cleaning business owners end their day with a vague sense of how things went. Allison gives you something concrete.

The End of Day report shows you exactly how the day performed — jobs completed, revenue collected, and anything that needs your attention before tomorrow. Run it at the end of each workday and you close out with a clear picture instead of a guess.

For owners managing a team in the field, this is the report that keeps you from finding out about problems the next morning.

Scorecard Reports: See Who's Earning the 5-Stars

When a customer completes a scorecard after their cleaning, that feedback used to show up one email at a time. Now it's all in one place.

The Scorecard Report in Allison shows your overall rating across every submission — satisfaction, professionalism, cleanliness, and likelihood to recommend. You can filter by cleaner to see who's performing and where there's room to improve. Filter by customer to see the full feedback history for any account.

From the report, you can send a cleaner their scores directly — great for recognizing strong work or opening a coaching conversation after a rough job.

This is the report that closes the loop between the service your team delivers and the reputation your business builds.

What Having the Right Cleaning Business Reports Actually Changes

When owners get clear on their numbers, a few things happen quickly.

They stop guessing about capacity. They can see how many cleans are scheduled, what the average price is, and whether there's room to take on more work before they need to hire. That's a real decision, made with real data.

They catch payroll errors before payday. Because the pay structure is set in the system, not in someone's head or a separate spreadsheet.

They know which customers are worth keeping — and which jobs are quietly losing money. Gross profit per clean tells you that story fast.

And when a customer calls with a complaint, they can pull up the scorecard history and see exactly what was submitted, who was on the job, and what the rating was. No scrambling.

The Real Question Isn't Whether You Need These Reports — It's Whether Your Software Provides Them

Every cleaning business needs to know its revenue, manage its payroll, track customer feedback, and close out each day with a clear picture. That's not optional. The question is whether you're spending hours pulling that information together manually — or whether it's just there.
