PAIN POINTS

Sound familiar?

These are the problems carpet cleaning owners face every week.

Equipment costs hidden in overhead

Truck mounts, portables, and wands cost thousands — but most owners have no idea what each piece costs per job. ipsum tracks depreciation and usage automatically.

Chemical costs untracked per job

Pre-spray, rinse agents, protectants, and specialty treatments all eat into margins. Without per-job tracking, you are flying blind on your real costs.

Seasonal revenue swings

Spring and fall are packed. Winter is dead. Without forecasting based on historical data, you can't plan staffing, marketing, or cash flow.
