Show Notes
Running a pool service is more than cleaning and balancing water—it’s running a business. In this episode, I’m diving into the importance of proper accounting. I’ll share how separating business and personal finances saved me a major headache at tax time, why tracking every chemical, part, and mile driven matters, and how simple tools like QuickBooks or even a spreadsheet can keep your cash flow crystal clear. Accounting may not be glamorous, but it’s the difference between just getting by and building a profitable pool business.
