Spring has arrived, and with it comes the busiest season for pressure washing businesses. Yet some companies thrive while others struggle—even with increased demand. What separates the winners from those left behind? In this candid conversation, Matt and Clay break down the critical factors that determine success during the pressure washing "game time."
Many contractors sabotage their spring season by focusing on the wrong priorities. Rather than concentrating on highly profitable services, they dilute their efforts with time-consuming, lower-margin offerings like gutter cleaning. The math is simple: would you rather spend three hours on one gutter cleaning job or complete three house washes in that same timeframe? Smart operators maximize their hourly revenue by staying focused on core services when demand peaks.
Another common mistake is discounting during high season. This practice not only diminishes profits but attracts price-sensitive customers who will forever expect deals. Instead of competing on price, successful companies establish value through consistent marketing, professional systems, and exceptional service. They understand that today's results reflect yesterday's marketing efforts—which is why they maintain visibility year-round rather than turning advertising on and off seasonally.
Technology adoption creates another significant advantage. Using CRM systems with automated follow-up sequences recovers thousands in otherwise lost revenue from prospects who simply forgot about their quotes. The most successful operations combine modern equipment, systematized processes, and customer-focused marketing to maximize daily output while delivering excellent results at fair prices.
