This template covers all five forces-industry rivalry, threat of substitutes, buyer bargaining power, supplier bargaining power, and new entrants-and ties each force to pet waste removal specifics like subscription churn, route density economics, and municipal disposal rules. Porter's Five Forces (framework for industry competition) is explained with practical scoring and short implications for tactics.

Force scores with short explanations

Substitutes: DIY and neighbor services

Buyers: homeowners and HOA dynamics

New entrants: low-capital local crews

Every section references real pet-waste business variables: recurring revenue from subscriptions, technician labor intensity, vehicle and disposal costs, and local regulation risks. Use the market-relevant prompts to estimate order density, lifetime value, and contract churn for suburban or commercial clients.
