Hey everyone !

Today's episode I talk mostly about getting started back up from spring, the things we have seen/done and what it is like to try to take more of a role as an owner. I also touch little on the CRM Jobber as I experiment with a new way of working!

My take on how I would address getting started on my business for the first time in 2023 using a 5W system, who what when where why. 

By answering those questions you find the deep answer to why you want to get into the industry, what type of business you plan to operate and a good guideline to get you started. It's also the first steps to break free from the information black hole. 

Start now, find the answers out as you hit the roadblocks. You'll never be 100% ready. 

Thanks for listening!

On today's episode we catch up with where we are at, the season is just about done and we are tying up some loose ends with clean ups. We've had snow, we have more snow in the forecast and the name of the game is make money. Whether we are plowing or doing leaf clean ups, we just want to keep churning the money pot!

What do you need to get started plowing? What if I only have a 1/2 ton truck or a 1500 or F150? What options do you have or what fits your business? Listen in for the answers!
