Offer gutter and window cleaning. All easy and low overhead.

I advertise my business on google and Yelp (garbage). Don’t use Yelp.

Make an Instagram/******** for your business. Lots of before and afters.

I’ve only owned my company for a few months, but I’ve been in my industry since 2008.

Also, stick firm to your prices. You give someone a discount once, you will always give them a discount. Their friends and neighbors too.

Do a better job than you would on your own property. If you do that, the price won’t matter. At least 75% of your customers should be repeats.

dang. excellent advice my man

already thought about that except for dryer vent

Get payed to haul the old furniture away, then either sell to a thrift shop or sell to some college kid for her to um...whats it called.....paint it and repurpose it or whatever....double paycheck

TBH sounds like way too much for 2 people. Landscaping is a full time gig, often requiring more than 2 people, once you get your name out there and have good results.

I would pick one business and get really good at it - otherwise you're just a general labor handyman service that people will bitch at because your prices aren't low enough.

well yeah, when i said landscaping, i really just meant like, mowing, litter pick up, trimming etc. full landscaping is down the road i imagine since it would just be me for however long and my brother on his off days

Although for commercial you will probably be working nights.

Eventually get a big water tank on a trailer to make you more productive. I would even offer the service for boats and rvs in storage.

Advertise on Craigslist, only $5 a post

Obviously spam it in different categories.

Start cheap to get the ball rolling then raise the prices when you’re busy.

damnnnnnnn i hate working nights. but i'm willing to do it though. I hadnt thought of advertising on craigs list or initially starting with cheaper prices though.

Make sure you have a sustainable business plan and great marketing. Offer groupons and special introductory pricing to get your name out there. Once you are well-reviewed, you can start charging incrementally more. A few bad reviews can break you though so you should make sure you get everything sorted out before going residential.

Yeah that is the scary and almost overwhelming part (almost all small businesses fail part). Seem like unless you are a corporation, or backed by one, then you have almost no chance. but my brother is pretty savvy ont he business end and has the drive to expand his knowledge on the subject. Me? I just like doing outside work. The actual business end with numbers and chit doesnt interest me at all. especially numbers. I'm damn near retarded when it comes to numbers. If i dont have enough fingers or toes, i probably cant solve the equation. Except int he gym. I can calculate the CHIT out of how much weight is on the bar though. Lol. I'm sure we all can though

It was my business idea before. Instead I rent my dump trailer out

Drop off dump trailer
Let the customer load themselves
Pickup in 2-3 days
Charge a flat fee

Local only

Edit: the dump trailer is hydraulic tilt and requires no labor from you

Yeah those fukking crackheads will always under cut you. WOnt even need a truck. They'll just say, "Leave it outside and it will be gone in an hour. Just dont ask any questions." But the flatbed hydraulic idea is pretty good, but probably not in line with the vision. May be something worth doing on the side though. One day maybe.
But you had/have your own flat bed? Did/do you do your own towing or something?

oh yeah. great idea. ESPECIALLY in restauraunts since its summer and god damned flies are a big problem. But most restauraunts will do their own since they dont wanna go over quarterly budgets and all.

If you expect this thing to take off and aren't worried about funding social security and don't have high wages or self employment earnings from other sources, create your business as an S-Corp. Keep owner wages low. Earnings in excess of your wages aren't taxable for social security / Medicare (self-employment tax). Your CPA should be able to explain to you in more detail and be specific to your own situations.

We arentexpectinganything. I'll be doing the work so if i'm not out working (in my ranger panties for the ladies and any miscers out there) then i'll be working on new business (in my ranger panties)
