Your past customers are your next revenue.
Retention software built for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, pest, lawn, pool, roofing, cleaning, auto repair, garage door, appliance, and carpet cleaning.
Service trades have the strongest repeat-customer pattern in business — and the worst follow-up systems. The customer you sold a $9,000 HVAC system to is worth $14K over the relationship if you stay in cadence. Most contractors capture half of that and never know. Retention IQ flips it: cadence-aware outreach, calibrated per trade, that recovers the dormant book you've already built.
A trades book leaks differently than a salon book.
A hair salon customer who drifts at week 8 is obvious — they didn't rebook. An HVAC customer who drifts isn't obvious for years. By the time the next emergency hits, they call whoever runs the cheapest ad. Trades retention is about staying present during the long quiet stretches, not about fixing a missed rebook.
Long quiet stretches between events
A pool service customer is weekly. A roofer's customer is once a decade. The cadence priors that work for one are wrong for the other. Generic CRMs send the same nudge — Retention IQ ships with trade-specific cadence baked in.
Seasonality drives most of the year
HVAC has spring + fall windows. Lawn care has the February sign-up cliff. Pool has open + close events. Roofers have storm season. Reaching customers at the right week, not the right month, decides who wins the year.
High-ticket cross-sell is the real prize
A $300 oil change becomes a $1,200 brake job becomes a $3,200 transmission. A $400 plumbing visit becomes a $9,000 repipe. Cross-sell signals come from the work-order history — Retention IQ surfaces them and drafts the next conversation.
Pick yours. See exactly how it works for your trade.
Each trade page has the cadence priors we use, the platforms we work alongside, the typical avg ticket band, and an honest dormant-revenue example for a single-location operator. No generic "service businesses welcome" SaaS pitch.
