For lawn care owners
Lawn Care Business finance tools
A lawn care company sells repeat visits. Mowing, fertilizing and weed control run on routes from spring to fall. Some customers pay per cut, some prepay a season, and commercial accounts pay monthly on terms. The billing method decides how even the cash is.

Is per-cut or monthly billing better for cash flow?
Monthly billing. It smooths the dry weeks and tells you the season's revenue in advance. Per-cut billing ties cash to the weather.
How much should a lawn care company save for winter?
Enough to cover fixed costs from the last fall invoice to the first spring payment, plus one month. The seasonal planner works it out from your own months.
