You Shouldn’t Need a CFO to Read Your Software Bill — Why Transparent Pricing Matters (and How Service Penguin Gets It Right)
The Lawn Care Software Billing Trap
Let’s be honest: most software pricing pages are more cryptic than a tax code and about as fun to read. The headline says “$49/month*,” but the asterisk leads you to a footnote that might as well require a Rosetta Stone subscription.
You sign up for “the deal”—then, a few months in, surprise! Extra charges for each user, per text message sent, per scheduled job, per existential crisis logged, etc. Next thing you know, you’re paying more for your software than your truck payment.
Flat-Rate, All-Inclusive: Not a Fantasy
Here’s the thing: predictable pricing shouldn’t be a mythical creature, like the Loch Ness Monster or a field tech who always arrives on time.
