Need Cash? How Your RMR Can Be a Lifeline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the alarm business, you know that cash flow is everything. Maybe your truck\u2019s on its last leg, or you need some new tools to keep things moving. Or maybe you\u2019re starting to think about selling your business one day. Whatever the reason, your recurring monthly revenue (RMR) is the key to unlocking that cash when you need it. Here\u2019s why keeping good track of your RMR\u2014and all the info around it\u2014is the smartest thing you can do to set yourself up for success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RMR: Your Built-In Cash Machine<\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the alarm industry, there\u2019s a unique perk we\u2019ve got that not everyone thinks about: when you need quick cash, you can sell off accounts. Those accounts with RMR bring in steady money every month, which makes them valuable. And when you\u2019re tracking all your accounts, contracts, and costs in one place, like WorkHorse, it\u2019s even easier. You know what you have, you know what it\u2019s worth, and that means you can get a deal done fast\u2014sometimes in as little as two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine this: you\u2019re thinking about a new vehicle, or maybe you need funds to grow your business. With solid RMR records, you can sell a handful of accounts and have cash ready to go. This is possible because anyone looking to buy accounts or even your whole business will see the clear, reliable numbers on each account, and they\u2019ll know exactly what they\u2019re getting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why RMR is the Real Deal When Selling Your Business<\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s the big picture: when you\u2019re ready to retire or move on, the first thing a buyer is going to look at is your RMR. This is what puts value on your business because it shows the income that will keep coming in every month. Good RMR tracking means you\u2019re not just hoping for a fair price; you\u2019re setting yourself up to get it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you\u2019ve got WorkHorse, all the details a buyer needs are right there in one place:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Accounts and Contracts<\/strong>: No hunting around. A buyer can see every account and every contract, including how much each one\u2019s worth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Third-Party Costs and Terms<\/strong>: Clear costs and terms make it simple for a buyer to understand expenses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Central Station Info<\/strong>: Every Account, Zone, Emergency Contact and more is right there.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Attrition: <\/strong>Check and track your attrition and compare that against your Central Station and Communication Partner Billing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
