@katanadash @miltonappl3 No. That's a waste of everyone's time. Find a reliable company through YOUR own research using the wonderful tools that we have today online, THEN have them come out to give you a price ONCE you're enough educated to feel comfortable with THAT company doing your work, KNOWING

Need new windows. I call a very reputable company:
>I see two names listed on the property, is this your wife?
>Yes
>Will she be available for the estimate
>Probably not
>We would like her to be there
>I can't guarantee that she'll be there
>We have lots of available times so we can be flexible
>She's not interested in being there
>How does this date work?
>Ok
>We're going to transfer you to dispatch for confirmation
Dispatch:
>So we're all set for that date to meet with you and your wife.
>Raising voice: my wife doesn't want to be there! Sorry for raising my voice. Your other colleague was very irksome on this point
>I accept your apology gave a good day
Next day, the window salesman shows up. My wife is not there. He's visibly irritated, not interested in measuring windows or anything.
>Negotiate
>Negotiate
>Negotiate
>Calls boss: yeah he wants 24 hours to think about this offer can we still hold the offer for him if he calls us tomorrow? Yeah his wife isn't here.
>Dude get out of my house

And God forbid your ads system "breaks" when anything changes.

@JD_DeYonker The biggest issue with this business is there's really no recurring model to it. You always need to be selling. You always need to be Chad spending on ads.

@pestctrlguy @johnowolabi_ Efficiency comes after the initial scale, you're okay man. Too many get into the weeds of this too early and Never scale.
English
@johnowolabi_ You’re probably right. This is my first time running a company nearing an 8 figure valuation so I’m still kinda figuring things out
English
Over the next 12 months our company is going to need changes that honestly are outside of my realm.
I may need to find a real mentor or pay a consultant or something.
Simple things that will have a big impact:
- emails - currently we have one office email but I am seeing a growing need to split into general, sales, and billing. Will need to navigate the best way to do this and how to have office staff monitor it
- similarly, need to start hiring specialists instead of generalists but need help deciding when and how.
- cyber security - need a better system to allow everybody to login to these emails and software but not have to change all passwords every time we have turnover
- need better ways to not be so severely over or understaffed in the office especially if we start hiring more specialists
- starting to do more project work and need to find better ways to integrate that into scheduling around recurring work
A lot of good problems to have. If we made no changes and kept rolling how we are we could keep growing to $10 million in revenue but it would be terribly inefficient and a bigger headache than it should be.

I tried. I can’t do it. I won’t be explaining further.

@miltonappl3 Flip side
>Spend hours driving around to houses
>Spend hours measuring/assessing houses
>Spend hours explaining/educating
>Spouse not able to be there but cares a lot about the information probably
>Not present spouse gets uneducated paraphrase
>3 word email declining
English
@miltonappl3 this is actually really smart; 90% of men are utterly cucked to their wives and are just walking wallets that aren't allowed to make real decisions
English
@miltonappl3 Hence why they so strongly ask that Both parties be there. Same if it were the other way around. If you can't respectfully have the other decision maker and owner present for what they have to offer you, don't ask them to come out
English
@miltonappl3 You're the problem. Not them. Everyone in the home improvement industry knows that the WIFE is the most common "objection" and cop-out for not making a same day decision. It benefits both yourself and the company to have a same day decision -which is why they provide the discount

@pestctrlguy What differentiates you guys as a "premium" service?
English
Following up on this!
Initially, they added one building to test us out. ARR- $2100
This week they added two more buildings that need weekly services.
Total ARR- $12,396
As they get familiar with us, they will likely add most of these buildings which will end up being over $100k in annual revenue.
I paid a kid on fiverr $50 to scrape these emails for me and send 3 total blasts.
We will be leaning into this method a lot harder over the next 12 months.

And clearly a woman who had Never seen the dark "behind the scenes" of that system ..... There are few situations where it's arguably better for a child, over the additional trauma incurred, to be taken from a home... That is what I have learned....
👮♂️The Badged Patriot👮♂️@BadgedPatriot
A neighbor called 911 to report a 12 yr old girl home alone with her 6 yr old brother. I went to the door of the 12 yr old & knocked & initially she didn't answer the door. I then announced myself & she did. I spoke to the girl for about 5 min & in doing so determined in my mind that she was mature enough that she could safely handle being there alone with her brother. I went to speak to the complainant & the woman disagreed that the two kids shouldn't be there alone. She said kids are kids & should never be left at home much less one child watching another child. She demanded I get child services out to investigate the parents. I advised the woman I'd make no such call to child services, my investigation was done, & if she wanted to file a complaint with child services she could & I'd gladly speak to them & advise of my findings. She then slammed the door in my face & started shouting from inside that cops are worthless. 🫤 I returned to my cruiser to leave & she was looking out her blinds at me so, as I pulled out, I waved & tapped my air horn to enjoy a nice community policing encounter as I left 😁👮♂️🚔

@Freyy_is It's not x, but y.
Not this partial thought. Not this fragment. Not this half idea.
It's the "quietly" doing any action.
It's the double space between each line of a post.
Not this. Not that. Not the other.
It's all of it. And the worst part? It's EVERYWHERE.
