Welcome to January. This is the month where most people pick random goals to torture themselves with. This is also the month where most people abandon these torturous goals. Regardless of what your New Years Resolution stack currently looks like, all of your resolutions will be enhanced by SMARTER Pest Goals.
SMARTER
You may have heard of smart goals, but with pests, you need smarter Goals. We’ll explore each letter of the acronym and set you on a pest free path full of extra capacity to apply to the things you should be focused on such as:
- Family
- Fun
- Friends
- Future
S – Specific
What pest do you find holds your well being hostage? Do ants disrupt your picnics? Do mice bring you atop your kitchen table? Are Box Elder bugs appearing where they shouldn’t;? Has a wasp ever made you feel threatened?
Whatever pest you want gone, specify it. Rove will apply specific treatment for the pest of choice as well as general defense against the rest.
M – Measurable
How do you count pests? Is it the number of spider webs that interrupt the aesthetics? Do you cont the number of shrieks from centipede scares? How about the number of ticks you pull off of your kids, pets, or self?
However you measure it, watch the measurement get consistently reduced by Rove’s services.
A – Achievable
It is too easy to make lofty claims such as you will never see a pest again. It is far better to apply realistic and achievable expectations for the implementation and progress of a pest service. Your goals are important. It’s essential that they are achievable.
Rove customizes your plans and services to reach your goals in achievable fashion.
R – Relevant
Some social media will bring you the hype of bed bugs all over Europe. Other platforms will share stories of Murder hornets. You may even listen to a podcast about the most painful stings in the world. Maybe your kindergartner is telling you about gigantic poisonous spiders. These hyped up pest situations exist somewhere in the wide world, but not in your immediate world.
Rove reigns in the focus with relevant pest information keeping you up to date on what you need to be aware of and keeping the rest off your plate.
T – Time Bound
A goal without a time is simply a wish. You wish your life was pest free so you could enjoy your deck more often. These wishes often lead to frustration when nothing changes. The unexpected nature of pests keeps most people from knowing how to attach a time to them.
Rove knows the timelines of the pests and the treatments that gives you back your time. You’ll know how long to observe and when to call a technician back out for an extra hit.
E – Empathy
Empathy is understanding not only what you want but what you need. Empathy in pest control means holding a duel perspective of:
- what you need to be pest free and happy.
- what pests need to stay out of your home, business, and hair.
Rove wrote the best selling book on empathy.. This means ample empathy for you and all the empathy needed to negotiate pests out of your life.
R – Rove
