Pest Daily

Time management changes when you’re scaling. If you're leading a pest control company trying to grow beyond $1M or $5M, summer is your growth season. But here's the challenge: the bigger your business gets, the more your role has to evolve. You can’t stay in the weeds and expect to scale. That means: ⭐ Stop multitasking—focus drives better results ⭐ Block time for strategic decisions and growth planning ⭐ Build systems, not just solve problems It’s easy to get stuck in technician or manager mode. But if you want to lead a company that grows without you doing everything, you have to manage your time like a true owner. This shift isn’t easy—but it’s necessary. Time to make yours: growing.pestdaily.com

An inside sales team can be a driver of growth—if you build it with intention. The right team can bring in new business through cold prospecting and unlock revenue from your existing database by identifying upsell and cross-sell opportunities. But before you hire, take inventory: What do your customers already buy? Who has churned but could be reactivated? Is your data clean and actionable? Inside sales is a data-driven department. It only works if you have the systems to support it. 👏 If you decide to move forward, build it in-house. Own the process. Own the data. Own the results. You control the revenue of your organization—make sure you’re building it on your terms. #RevenueGrowth #PestControlBusiness #CustomerRetention

Most companies are sitting on untapped growth—and it’s right inside their own customer database. Right now, it’s worth taking the time to evaluate your database. Is it clean? Consistent?

The Upsell & Cross-sell course from Pest Daily outlines practical steps for organizing your customer data and identifying ways to drive 20% year-over-year growth. It’s a strategic, system-focused approach to increasing revenue with the tools you already have. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/edCpPP4c #BusinessGrowth #CustomerData

Integrating Pest Daily into your team's workflow doesn't require a major time commitment—it just requires consistency. One simple way to do this over the summer is by having technicians spend 7–10 minutes between stops listening to short lessons from the Pest Daily app. These micro-learning sessions are designed to build field confidence and reinforce essential skills without disrupting their daily routine. As an owner or operator, your time is pulled in multiple directions. You can’t always be available to answer every question—but your team still needs answers. Pest Daily provides a structure that allows techs to teach themselves, access best practices, and problem-solve in real time. ⏳ Over time, this builds accountability, improves efficiency, and supports a more scalable operation. For teams focused on growing with structure and consistency, this is a practical and sustainable next step! 📈 Learn more: growing.pestdaily.com

Customer Service= Your Company's Reputation and #Success In pest control, great sales might get you a customer—but it’s your customer service that determines whether they stay, refer others, and build your brand for you. Your CSRs, techs, and frontline teams aren't just support—they are the experience. They shape how your customers feel about your business, every single day. Did the tech show up on time? Did the CSR follow through on that promise? Did someone call back when they said they would? 🤔 If you’re trying to scale in 2025, don’t just ask, “How do we sell more?” Ask, “How do we serve better?” Because the companies that win are the ones that deliver consistently—even when no one’s watching. Reputation isn’t built by what you say—it’s built by how you serve. And in this industry, #service is everything. ⭐ Create a better customer experience with our CS courses: https://lnkd.in/erPTfqx9

The 2025 season is here and as leaders, you're always chasing new opportunities but one thing you should focus on, is weaponization of your database. Over the years, you've gotten many leads, customers, past customers and cancels. 🚫 All of these people have the opportunity to buy a recurring service from you in the coming months. 20% of everyone in your database that's not buying recurring service from you this year, will buy one in the next 12-18 months. Start with segmentation so you can understand who to go after first. Need guidance? Visit growing.pestdaily.com or message us. 😊

In this industry, growth has become almost synonymous with ‘more.’ More customers. More revenue. More technicians. More trucks on the road. And it makes sense - having more is exciting, it’s easy to measure and it gets people talking. But what happens when adding more doesn’t actually mean earning more? Growth can feel like success, but if it’s not sustainable, it quickly becomes a dead end. 📉 “Growing fast is one thing. Growing the right way is another,” Seth Garber said. “The companies that last are the ones that build a foundation strong enough to support their success.” That’s why he’s made it his mission to help pest control companies scale smarter—not just get bigger. In this blog, Seth shares the critical difference between growth and scale, the biggest mistakes he sees owners make, and what it really takes to build a profitable, sustainable business that doesn’t break when things speed up. ✅ Read the full breakdown here: https://lnkd.in/eBwjYZTk

Are Your CSR's Helping You Scale? In many pest control companies, customer service representatives aren’t equipped to drive recurring revenue. But as we move deeper into 2025, the opportunity to convert one-time services into long-term accounts has never been greater. Recurring revenue not only stabilizes cash flow—it also increases the long-term value of your business. Guide the conversation toward recurring programs that add value for the customer—and your company. With the right tools, your front-line team becomes a growth engine.

Residential Sales: Growing to $1M Before targeting commercial contracts or multi-location deals, it’s important to perfect the fundamentals—and that starts with residential sales. Residential accounts are the training ground for developing a high-performing sales team. Focus on consistency, communication, and building trust with customers quickly. More importantly, these sales create a repeatable, scalable process that sets the foundation for long-term growth. 📈 Once your team can confidently sell residential services with strong margins and predictable results, you’ll be in a much better position to expand into other verticals—without compromising operational efficiency. Get the fundamentals right. Build the engine first. Then scale! For more, visit growing.pestdaily.com
