How awesome would it be if you could simply visit your customers, service and repair their pool and pool equipment, and never have to worry about collecting payment?

Very awesome.

Our passion is automating the things that take time away from your customers.  One of the biggest time sinks you have in your business is Billing.

We do it for you.

All you have to do is set up the customer within VasserPro.  Specify the amount they are billed each month, and viola!  They get the bill sent to them each month automatically!

All they have to do is log on at SeeMyPoolService.com, and pay their bill online (and check out all the service you’ve done over the past year, too).  If they opt to have their credit card charged automatically, they never have to lift a finger to pay the bill – and neither do you.

To quote our friend Tom Biederbeck of AZ Pool Expertise:

Wow.  That is [darn] easy.

So the big issue we had so solve was how to bill the customer:  Statements or Invoices.  Let’s first understand the difference.

Invoices

This is a one-time bill for a one-time thing.  Think car repair, new refrigerator, or a traffic ticket (unless it becomes a monthly thing…).

Invoices are a historically traditional way of billing people for goods and services.

Even subscriptions were billed with an invoice.  You wanted a newspaper delivered each Sunday for a year? Here’s the bill for $XX.XX.

There is really no problem with this except when it comes to receiving lots of invoices from the same company for the same goods or services.

And that’s where statements come in.

Statements

Statements really came in to play when businesses realized that getting paid for invoices was a pain and a drag on their profits.

When invoices are constantly being sent out, some can be missed, some can go unpaid, some can be overpaid, etc., etc.  So how do you keep track of all that accounting mess?

Statements.

Think credit card, electric bill, phone bill, etc.  You get statements for recurring goods or services you use.

In the case of a credit card, even though you are paying for different things, you are using the card for the same service – to buy things quickly and easily.

The beauty of statements is the rollover.  A statement is for a period in time (usually a month), and if it’s not paid by a certain time, a fee is charged, and the amount due simply rolls over to the next statement.

So when the bill is paid, you don’t have to worry about which invoice was being paid – your pool customer is simply paying down the current amount due – nothing more nothing less!  Kind of like a tab at a the local bar.

Which Way Is Best?

Without a question, if you are a swimming pool and spa service professional, manager, or business owner, statements win hands down.

Your billing cycle is recurring.  Even if it goes dormant in the winter, it is still monthly billing – just like the phone bill.

And like a phone bill, you are automatically charged a late fee if you are late, you are charged more if you use more, and you receive your bill automatically.
