Would You Rather? (Pest Control Edition) | Ep. 252

Prioritize lead quality and closing rates when resources are limited; unlimited leads are great if you can handle the volume.

Invest heavily in digital marketing, especially for long-term growth and scalability, as it provides a broader reach than door-to-door.

Focus on eliminating scheduling issues over all callbacks; some callbacks (like for new issues) can build customer value and trust.

Hire for attitude over experience; teachable employees with great attitudes are more valuable as they positively impact team culture and can be trained.

Cultivate customer referrals as they lead to higher retention and route density, which are crucial for long-term business growth.

Embrace AI for its potential to drive future automation and innovation, even if it means foregoing current automation, as AI is still in its early stages.
