Setting Up Recurring Contracts
Recurring contracts form the backbone of many pest control businesses. ServiceTracker automates scheduling, invoicing and contract management, reducing administration while ensuring customers receive visits on time.
Creating a Contract
Start by creating a new service contract for the customer.
Typical information includes:
Contract dates
Visit frequency
Service type
Pricing
Billing schedule
Assigned technician or team
Visit Scheduling
ServiceTracker can automatically generate visits based on your chosen frequency, such as:
Weekly
Monthly
Quarterly
Six-weekly
Annual
Custom intervals
Generated visits appear in the scheduling board ready for allocation.
Recurring Billing
Invoices can be produced:
Every visit
Monthly
Quarterly
Annually
On custom billing cycles
This helps keep invoicing aligned with contractual agreements.
Managing Changes
If a customer changes frequency or adds additional sites, simply update the contract and allow ServiceTracker to manage future visits automatically.
Best Practice
Review contracts regularly.
Monitor upcoming renewals.
Use reminders for expiring agreements.
Check generated visits before each scheduling period.
Summary
Automating recurring contracts reduces manual work, improves consistency and ensures no scheduled service is overlooked.
