Paying for software in a seasonal business
A holiday-lighting company earns most of its revenue between October and January. Software that costs $100–$500 a month runs all year, including the months your trailer sits in the shop. Merry Manage's Free plan costs nothing in the off-season, and Growth is $9.99 when you need it.
