“You can’t manage what you don’t measure” is a common refrain in business — and we agree. One of the most powerful tools in business is benchmarking against past results, budgeted results and — most importantly — industry standards.
Comparing your pest control company’s numbers to others in the industry is one of the most powerful things you can do to improve your results and achieve your goals.
PCO Bookkeepers & M&A Specialists’ access to standardized financial data from hundreds of pest control companies gives us the unique ability to deliver the Pest Control Industry Cost Study. We’ve analyzed anonymized data from hundreds of our clients over several years to produce this powerful, actionable report. While associations and publications occasionally issue their own versions of cost studies or benchmarking reports, no other organization in the industry has the data, access or capability to produce a report like ours.
“At Triangle, we use PCO’s Cost Study to train our leadership team on how to play the game of business in the pest control industry. For example, I explain to my managers what gross margin is, why it’s so important and how we’re doing compared to the industry average in the Cost Study.”
