I ran a part time lawn service last year and was paid mostly in cash and cash apps. By the end of the year it was a mess due to growth ended up with 90k revenue.
This coming year I would like to set up seasonal contracts with automatic monthly billing for my clients.
What is an ideal low cost payment service?
Look into jobber It’s one of the more popular CRM in the industry.
It will do what you need it to do for an LCO of that size and it will scale if you decide to bigger.
Fees are an apart of the business and as long as people know it coming no one cares. Just be upfront with your customers and don’t gouge them. Everyone knows about the 3% and if they complain, fire them. At the size you are at you can replace them with less headaches. Put them all on auto bill and roll in the cashflow
