generating $11 million in revenue in the first year Initial EBITDA margin is healthy at \u003cstrong\u003e231%\u003c\/strong\u003e, but the 18-month payback period suggests high initial capital expenditure (CAPEX) must be managed aggressively To improve profitability, focus must shift from pure volume to optimizing the service mix Currently, 60% of revenue comes from lower-margin Residential Jetting ($56250 average ticket), while higher-margin Commercial Maintenance ($1,100 average ticket) only accounts for 20% The primary levers are increasing the commercial mix to 40% by 2030, reducing variable costs (like referral commissions, starting at 80%), and enhancing technician efficiency You must drive the EBITDA margin toward the \u003cstrong\u003e30%\u003c\/strong\u003e range by 2028 by
