Consider us like an accounting business coach!
We have a simple strategy for growth. Our client managers will help you keep in mind the business you are in and create a road map for growth by increasing profitable recurring revenue. In the lawn care and maintenance business we sell time; and do the same thing over and over again until a route or several routes are built.
What Lawn Care Professional Time Do You Sell?
- Time to Identify a customer need
- Time to Provide a solution
- Time to Set up the customer on a service contract.
Once the lawn care professional understands that what he sells is his technicians’ time, that time becomes very valuable. So everything that is done to effectively route customer calls will maximize the amount of time that can be sold. It’s all about recurring business.
In building the value of your firm this recurring service model ensures that not only are you selling time in the present but also that there are predictable revenues in the future as well. So it makes sense that the most valuable asset in a lawn care business is the customer list. Those customers that use service on a recurring basis year after year provide the most value.
