Hey man, I've been watching you for 6 months, and your info is excellent. Love your expansion of equipment and knowledge. This is by far the most informative and no-nonsense video out there. Thank you. I do this part-time since I have a full-time job. And this year, I'm pushing at it hard and taking all of your advice to heart. Keep at it, and I'll be watching. Bryan.
I enjoyed your video. I am a numbers guy. One thing that I noticed, and it is only fact, not a judgement, is that as a percentage of revenue, money spent on Home Adviser, and Facebook is about the same at ~15%. While the money spent on mailers as a percent of revenue is about twice that at ~30%. Have you tried walking neighborhood to distribute your mailers by hand near a job that you are doing? The pitch of, "I am working in your neighborhood, and was wondering if I may be of service to you?"
Man I just had the idea of walking neighborhoods last night. That's funny! I can't do it while I'm on site. I do 4-6 every day so I seldom have time to add in a 2nd or walk the hood. Gotta move on. But next Saturday I might walk a bit 🤙. I sold a couple dry cleaning service door to door when I was in college 😅
Appreciate all of the info brother. I've been doing some washing on the side and just bought a sesw skid to do this full time beginning in the Spring. Getting away from a 20 year corporate job that just isn't for me anymore! I look forward to following along on your journey also. Subscribed!
Great video bud! You are very organized and are paving your way to huge success. It's a very big difference between the guys who show their "numbers and spendings" versus the guys who just say "I spent umm $4k on equipment/advertising and made ummm $180k for the year". Thanks for posting! I just subscribed!
Great info. Record keeping is critical for budgets and taxes. I hear either good stories or horror stories with Home Advisor so I’ve avoided it. My best results have been from GMB and Nextdoor.
@@YoungAmbitionYA It is crazy how much it varies place to place. GMB is Google my business and Nextdoor is an app quickly gaining in popularity. Look and see if neighborhoods in your area are using it.
Thanks for the information. Good records definitely help with planning. Thanks for talking about the reality of a small business. There is a lot more to it than just cleaning. Record keeping, paying for expenses, taxes. It is a business. Appreciate you sharing your experience.
You got me bamboozled with crm and marketing and I haven't even built my website yet! Looking forward to getting started. If borders open up I'm definitely taking the time to come ride along with you in the spring!
Glad to hear it! good luck this spring. lots of good info on the channel! check it all out and stay tuned for upcoming! comment your questions and ill be happy to help!
Very informational, and puts terms/actions to perspective. I too started mid spring 2020 and made a few mistakes. My biggest was consistent target Marketing. I Will be capitalizing this year! Thanks for your videos
Thanks for sharing! same here with the marketing. its tough to be a one man show doing everything! i like FB ads and this year im going to schedule all my ads preseason and they will run constantly all summer on auto pilot, on a set budget, and i wont have to worry! look into it!
What’s up fam... thought I was subscribed... I am now! Thanks for all the info you out out. I’ve been watching but subscribed now! Continue to crush it bro! 💪🏿
Watched most of your videos man, you've been an incredible help and inspiration. One question for you, did you check/establish your business name and register your company with your state before you started advertising/working?
No I started working without all that. When It comes time to open a business bank account you'll need to have all that registered. But I started and just took checks made to me personally, made to cash or cash and set up the official stuff as the business grew

Hey Jase. You just need to decide how much of the rules you want to play by. Roof washing insurance will be expensive. Roof washing has a low risk of damage so I've gotten by with a general liability policy for contractors which is about $125/mo. A low pressure system will never damage a roof. Higher risk of dropping a ladder through a window or on a car or burning plants with SH. Roof wash or GL won't cover you if you get hurt - it's only for damage so at the end of the day I just use GL and I get on and off the roof quickly
This was an amazing video. I have been learning on someone else's rig. Getting things together to make the leap.. thanks for all of your info. Did you create those excell spreadsheet? Or can they be purchased? Thanks again.
I made my own. the way it looks now is way different from when i started. start simple and your excel sheet will grow with your business. youll learn what to add as you go. using a template will only confuse you. build your own and design it to your needs!
Great content YA. As i asid in a previous comment this year will be my first yera going hard at this and i definitely need to keep better records. I couldn't see but does your insurance policy cover your vehicle also? Thanks! 🤙
Keep the hustle up NC! I'm excited for this season as well I cant wait for the first wash. Definitely keep records and recipets from the beginning. It really makes the following year easier, kinda like the saying "split next years wood this season..." it gets better with time and more efficient. The records are good for tax and what not but the real reason is budgeting and planning your costs and income for the following year. Run a small little 1 man show the same as the big dogs ;)
Just curious, did you create a job template of some kind to keep on the truck and complete as you work your day? Then enter those into the computer at the end of the day.
How do you keep up with rinsing plants and grass if running solo. Do you use a family member or someone as a helper or just bounce between hoses a lot?
What's up Rich. Thanks for watching and the comment! I wash in sections. I wet the grass on side A, wash side A, rinse side A, hit the grass again and move to side B etc. Its not something that has to be constantly done. SH won't immediately harm the vegetation, especially if you presoak. When I roof wash I pre wet the grass for overspray but I might be up on the roof an hour. I just wait till I'm done and on the ground and rinse the lawn before I leave! Hope this helps!
What software you using setting all this up google sheets? Great video new subscriber. I'm new just got a 4gpm Simpson washer my hoses just came in. I have solo landscape company and plan on tying this in with it.

Great info. Record keeping is critical for budgets and taxes. I hear either good stories or horror stories with Home Advisor so I’ve avoided it. My best results have been from GMB and Nextdoor.
Yeah it seems to be different depending on where you are. Around me I've never heard of GMB or Nextdoor.
@@YoungAmbitionYA It is crazy how much it varies place to place. GMB is Google my business and Nextdoor is an app quickly gaining in popularity. Look and see if neighborhoods in your area are using it.
@@dirtynewschannel I definitely will check it out. I have Google my business, just didnt recognized it as gmb. I'll look into nextdoor
Your truthfulness and administration tips are invaluable and will guide you with continued success ahead. Stay safe
😎🤙👍

Did you use a template on Excell or did you make your own spreadsheet?
I made my own. the way it looks now is way different from when i started. start simple and your excel sheet will grow with your business. youll learn what to add as you go. using a template will only confuse you. build your own and design it to your needs!

ive heard of other guys attaching a sprinkler head to the homes water spicket - it will constantly rinse while you wash - just an idea
How do you do your invoices and payment options without the CRM?
Only cash and check?
I use invoice2go for invoices, estimates and card payments. Its not really a CRM platform though.
What software you using setting all this up google sheets?
Great video new subscriber. I'm new just got a 4gpm Simpson washer my hoses just came in. I have solo landscape company and plan on tying this in with it.
