Joe Richer & Donald Cokely
Professional Background
We are disciplined operators with backgrounds in operations, leadership, customer service, and logistics. Prior to JDI, we worked in roles that required accountability, structure, and consistent execution. That experience shapes how we operate our region today, with a strong focus on systems, standards, and people.
JDI aligns with how we already lead and operate — through structure, repeatable systems, and a people-first approach. Our goal was to build a professional service operation, not just a cleaning business, while creating opportunity and delivering consistent, high-quality results. JDI provides the framework to do that properly.
Fun Facts
Outside of work, Joe and Donald enjoy travelling, staying active, and spending time with their families.

How do you live up to JDI's core value of helping people shine?
An acceptable clean meets the checklist.
A brilliant clean reflects consistency, care, and attention to detail over time.
Brilliance is repeatable excellence — clients don’t just notice the clean, they trust it.
what separates an acceptable clean from a brilliant clean?
We help people shine by providing clarity, structure, and support. Clear expectations, proper training, and consistent leadership allow team members and franchisees to grow with confidence and take pride in their work.
How do you live up to JDI's core value of being deeply dedicated?
Dedication shows through consistency. We follow the process, review the details, and hold ourselves accountable, even when no one is watching. That discipline builds trust internally and with clients.
How do you live up to JDI's core value of dazzling customers?
We dazzle customers through reliability, professionalism, and proactive communication. When service runs smoothly and clients don’t need to follow up, we know we’ve done our job right.
