You can make $100,000 in 6 weeks by hanging Christmas Lights (with no money down)... I've been running a professional Christmas Light Installation company for the last 4 years. Last year we did $500,000 in revenue in only 12 weeks. Here's how you can do it:

@HammerTimeSales No tags pre balled

@HammerTimeSales Lights at wholesale

Where are you purchasing warm white minis lights? Last year I though Christmas light contractors was selling minis that had a tag attached to every single one, and I’m pretty sure lights at whole sale DID NOT have a tag — could be wrong. Taking the tag off is painful

@HammerTimeSales @rampulla_andrew All good. What’s the saying? “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery”

@jackrthomps @rampulla_andrew Who did it better

You can make $100,000 in 8 weeks installing luxury Christmas lights (with $0 upfront)... I've only been doing it for 2 years & last season I made $165,000 in 2 months. Here's how you can do it too:

@dylthorn @rampulla_andrew Still doing lights like normal. Window work all subbed out.

@jackrthomps @rampulla_andrew haven't seen you post in awhile, you gonna do lights again this year? Stills scrubbing windows?

@rampulla_andrew lol bro this is like copying someone’s homework but changing a couple of answers to make it your “own”

cred. to @jackrthomps for the hook/inspo

@AlexLathery I’d like to make a revision to our website build…

"Wow, their rankings are up big and they only have 10 reviews... I wonder what happened?" What Happened:

@mhp_guy I see these in a lot of local facebook groups and they always seem so scammy

What’s a professional way to say “Surely that’s what I’m paying you to do”?

@a2mfk74 @shawngorham I totally agree with you. It’s often times pointless and probably more dangerous but they don’t care and it puts companies out of business if claims happen

@jackrthomps @shawngorham I have inspected at least 1000 roofs. I’d kindly disagree with OSHA. But there are roofs I won’t go on. I’ll give you this, it’s odd it’s never enforced to my knowledge. Can you imagine a construction site with anyone over 6ft needing a harness?

I have done this 50,000 times over. Roof Removal - 13 guys. Should take 2-3 hours max. Every crew does 3 jobs a day then you double up crews in the afternoon to get one more done in half the time. Rinse and Repeat for 21 years or until you get sued too many times by the labor force and you cant get workers comp. *** this is not my job, but I cant help but stop and stare at roofing jobs, I bleed tar. ***

@a2mfk74 @shawngorham OSHA disagrees with you

@shawngorham @jackrthomps That’s probably only @ 5:12. A harness would probably be more dangerous at that pitch Most dangerous part is the ladder

@NeelBParekh Kilimanjaro

What's something you want to cross off your bucket list in 2025?

@AlexLathery Big fan of Housecall pro. Lots of updates and improvements. Good customer service. Don’t think GHL is really meant for dispatching crews

Serious question on CRMs I've seen (and used) to some degree almost every major home service CRM. In painting, DripJobs is what we've been recommended But I've seen a TON of hype around GoHighLevel (tried this years ago but not in a home service context) Should I use GHL?

@KrissBergTweets Honestly feels on the low side of acceptable. Probably take my crew 2-3hrs to install. Less than 30min to takedown. 50-60% gp margins

My neighbors paid $1200 for somebody to put up and take down these Christmas lights. What do you think fam was it worth it?

@Investmentkage @KrissBergTweets Big money in it

@KrissBergTweets I didn’t realize you could make so much money hanging lights I need to look into this. this is wow

@AlexLathery These look really good

This is going to be so good when I'm done with it

@irentdumpsters Then add on the $15k vehicle wrap design. Always a mascot too

Is it worth it to hire a “branding consultant?” I have been hearing some outrageous prices…. Branding companies charging $10,000 for an obnoxious website that isn’t SEO optimized even slightly and takes 4 months to build. Anyone else come across this?

Yeah think that’ll hold

Still can’t believe they let anyone with a credit card rent a boom lift.

@craiglambert_io @stephenolmon That’s awesome! I won’t be doing any of those but still awesome

@stephenolmon paging @jackrthomps

What does “extra” mean? :
