@realnaholmes Same thing happens with me in pool service. It’s all in the work types- we can’t control what breaks on a pool, so some months have higher ticket items than others. The revenue swings on repair side are real, whereas recurring cleaning service is more predictable.
@brian_mslp I grew my business and then it stopped growing. Because I made the right decisions along the growth path, I thought I could solve my way through it without expert help. The business didn’t start growing again until I let go of my ego and hired specialists.
@pestctrlguy Do ya’ll purchase pest control routes? I’m in the swimming pool industry and i just acquired 2 routes this month. Curious if it’s similar in the pest control world.
@jxcroff@FrontierBDesign Yeah i operate in the residential world. The card on file system may not work in the commercial world- Totally different beast.
@SenSanders We are so fucked if these clowns take office again. I don’t want the government anywhere near Elon’s wealth. The wealth is in his companies and it’s pushing humanity forward.
@pestctrlguy Do pest control technicians need to have any certifications or any previous technical expertise to get hired by you, or can you take a hard worker who is completely green and train them?
@cleaningbizguy I felt this way alot also before before the numbers reflected it. For me, the growth feeling came from implementing systems I know we needed, creating positions and putting the right person in the right seats. That all felt like growth before the revenue numbers caught up.
