Season 2: Episode 24: Your Business Doesn't Have to Die in July


Listen Later

Ever wonder why your pressure washing business hits a wall every July? You're not alone. In this candid conversation between seasoned pressure washing entrepreneurs Matt Jackson and Clay Smith, we dive deep into what they call "the summer slump" – that predictable mid-year slowdown that leaves many business owners panicking about their bottom line.

Despite the slowdown, these veterans are still pulling in $30-50K monthly during what they consider their "slow season." Their secret? They're not marketing for today – they're positioning themselves for the fall uptick that's just around the corner. As Clay explains, "You want to have your July marketing done in February, March, before the season kicks off." This fundamental shift in thinking separates sustainable businesses from those that struggle with seasonality.

Beyond just marketing strategies, Matt and Clay share how they've leveraged local recognition opportunities like the "Best of the Upstate" awards to build credibility in a saturated market. These credentials aren't just for show – they create tangible advantages when customers compare quotes from multiple service providers. "Most people do get three pressure washing quotes," Matt points out, highlighting how these differentiators tip the scales in your favor.

Perhaps most valuable is their discussion about evolving from technician to CEO. While many in the industry obsess over chemical formulations and equipment specs, successful owners focus on building systems that allow their businesses to thrive without their constant presence. Both hosts now enjoy the freedom of having crews that generate revenue (and five-star reviews) without their daily supervision – something that seemed impossible just three years ago.

Ready to transform your pressure washing business from a demanding job into a system that works for you? Tune in to discover practical strategies for weathering seasonal fluctuations while building a business that delivers freedom and sustainable growth. Follow Matt and Clay's journey from hustling solo operators to successful business owners who can actually take vacations while their companies continue to thrive.
