When done right, pest control flyers can be one of your greatest assets for selling more work.
Since contracts dominate the pest control industry, it can sometimes become challenging and expensive to convince clients to sign up for a year.
After all, much of your revenue is going to come from annual contract packages with recurring services - as opposed to one-and-done, one-time pest control projects.

However, after converting a client and keeping them happy, it should be a piece of cake to get them to resign with you year-after-year.
In this article, you'll discover some of the best ways to create effective pest control flyers designed to sell!
Even though it's unrealistic to list all of your pest control services, it's important to at least list your specialties top-selling services.
Also, by listing these top services, you can indirectly upsell clients with services they may have been previously unaware of.
Usually, businesses will list their top 7-10 best-selling services. Although, to avoid making your pest control flyers overwhelming, it's not a good idea to list more than 10 services.
The best way to justify your prices and stand out against the competition is by focusing efforts on what clients love most about your business.
Email or text surveys to identify why existing clients have chosen your business over the competition.
In your survey, ask specific questions to determine what makes your pest control business so unique. For example, is it your customer service, 100% satisfaction guarantee, or high-quality services?
Plus, you can easily automate surveys and track results using Service Autopilot.
