Pest control is a recurring-revenue business the moment you write the first quarterly contract. This workbook prices each service by pest and property type, tracks jobs by client history, inventories chemicals and application equipment, and monitors recurring revenue by contract type. The tab that shows next month's recurring is the tab that matters.
