# Converting Service into Recurring Revenue
The trades business model has a built-in problem: you finish a job, collect payment, and then need to find the next job. Maintenance contracts solve this by creating predictable recurring revenue from your existing customer base.

**Basic tier:** Annual inspection and essential maintenance
**Premium tier:** Semi-annual service with priority scheduling and discounts
For each tier, specify:
1. What is included in each visit (specific tasks)
2. What parts/materials are included vs. billed separately
3. Response time guarantees for service calls
4. Discount on repairs (percentage off standard rates)
5. Pricing structure (monthly vs. annual payment)
