Frequently Asked Questions
Why adjust margins manually?
Every business is different. Your labor costs, material sourcing, and overhead vary based on location, team size, and operational efficiency. These sliders let you model your actual costs for precise pricing decisions.
What does price sensitivity analysis tell me?
It shows the real impact of raising prices. When you increase prices by 10%, some customers leave. The slider models this using an industry formula: price increase % × 1.5 = account loss %. It helps you decide if higher margins are worth potential volume loss.
How accurate are the NYC market benchmarks?
These ranges are based on aggregated industry data for the NYC metro area. Budget, mid-market, and premium tiers help you position competitively. Use them as reference points, not absolutes—your specific market may vary.
What's a healthy margin in pest control?
45%+ is strong, 30-45% is competitive, below 30% indicates challenges. With labor (35-40%), materials (10-15%), and overhead (5-20%), your margin absorbs profit, growth, and contingencies. Use this calculator to stress-test different cost scenarios.
Should I price by square footage?
For commercial properties, yes. The calculator scales prices for larger spaces automatically. Residential is typically fixed-price. Consider time, complexity, and materials when setting commercial rates—larger properties often require more product and labor.
