Dean 🇺🇸

Earlier today I was encouraged to make a funding page to kickstart my Home Service business due to being laid off for 3 months now with no luck finding a job. I’m not one to ask for handouts, I work my ass off to make my earnings. And I know you all do too. That’s why every donation will be used very wisely towards business expenses to help it grow. I am blown away by the support from the X community and hope I will be able to repay this community back one day. Thank you everyone 🫡🇺🇸 givesendgo.com/veteran-owned-…

@SGTWipper1Each You have to scream at them

Will someone please tell the cicadas to quiet down?

@JohnHaz01286415 Gotta make hay while the sun shines!

@TheTopRepost I’ve paid for Facebook ads a few times with no real luck. Starting my second year now and getting calls daily, line up as much work as you can because the phone doesn’t ring in June because of weddings/graduations/vacations.

Facebook business page is already working for leads! I had 2 calls this evening, one for weekly lawn care and one for another junk removal job! That puts me at 4 jobs in the last week 😀 Again I can’t thank everyone enough for your support and suggestions! 🫡 Hey, Is this the world’s first X community built company?! That would be awesome 😊

@TheCriticalDri1 Great idea!

@TheTopRepost You should consider starting a Community that brings entrepreneurs together.

@thotchkiss13 😊😊

@TheTopRepost Congratulations! I am rooting you on. You can be your own boss.

@AllegedlyDrew As someone who is just starting my own business, that’s a tough one! Six figures is hard to pass up for sure! If you don’t plan on expanding your business to exceed six figures, it may be worth taking the job. Just my 2 cents

A new construction startup offered me a job. 6 figure salary and includes a new Ford F-350…. I’ve enjoyed being 100% self employed but this is so hard to pass up. HELP ME 😭😭😭

@oldcarsally I’m on Nextdoor now as well :)

@TheTopRepost Nextdoor is free!

So far this week for my business I've: - Read and continue to read suggestions and comments! - Secured business insurance - Built a simple website and made it live - Created a Facebook presence along with joining a ton of FB communities - Set up a google business profile for reviews and presence - Ordered business cards and door hangars - Put business vinyl signs on my truck and trailer - Secured a landscape job and a junk removal job Now, I just need more work to pay for all of that lol

@loveistheark I bet we could get grok to go through all my posts and summarize all suggestions

@TheTopRepost So so happy for you. Keep notes! Maybe we can publish your story and help others one day.

@Dawn58760230976 Its definitely a trial by error process for sure

@TheTopRepost You'll be the expert giving everyone advice next. Just dont sell your service short. My husband was laid off after 17 years many many years ago so he started a handyman business. While he got quite busy, he charged very little.

@CatherineInSea Thank you!

@TheTopRepost Dean, this is really great news!! Congrats!😉

@KendallNeely63 Love it! Thank you!

Let’s keep this going and make you a rock star.

@MAGAVoice Good for them! Freedom!

HOLY SHT 🚨 This is Iran right now. Many women walking around WITHOUT Hijabs on. This is HUGE These people look so happy LET’S GO 🔥

@AmMonq3 @elonmusk Indeed

@TheTopRepost @elonmusk This does not bode well for the contrarian.

I asked grok what the new AI would do for users and their views in regards to @elonmusk post . Below is the answer that Grok gave

@brosco28405 What’s it got in it??

@TheTopRepost It's been in a storage container for 5 years. Bought my junior year in high-school.

Spring has sprung. Time to get her out of her 5 year hibernation.

@Thumpers69 I have one with just one wheel now but I’ll be getting a double wheeler soon!

@TheTopRepost Did you get a wheelbarrow with 2 wheels? So much easier

This cart should do well hauling around a concrete pile! Between this and the wheelbarrow it should be an hour job tops. Hauls 8 cubic feet and 1200 lbs

@JerryGantz Haha right?

@TheTopRepost The first 2 hours of a 30 minute job are the hardest. 😁

@Paladin0926 I did talk to them. Spendy tho

@TheTopRepost Have you thought of joining 'Angies List'? That would be excellent exposure as well.

@Paladin0926 Ahh good idea. I haven’t thought of that one

@TheTopRepost Outstanding Sir, you've accomplished a lot in a little time! Have you joined the 'Better Business Bureau' ('BBB')? That's always good to display on your business cards.
