    Does anyone use a T435, 338XPT, 540XP everyday?

    Re: Does anyone use a T435 everyday? Thanks, OT. That's some good info on this product. It's not good to hear that the chain break would break so quickly. That says something about the approach to designing durability. I wonder how much better the 338 XPT is.

    How do you like it? Is it well worth the money, because I need to buy one in the next few days?

    [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] A 1000. a week, you have to be kidding.. [/ QUOTE ] I think there's a misunderstanding. When I read BBBs post, I also read that they were only doing. $1000/wk. But if you re-read it, it says "if we weren't working together we WOULDN'T EVEN be able to make $1000/wk...

    How do you handle the sales?

    [ QUOTE ] Way too late on the website... Needs to be the first thing you do these days. My site sells jobs every week, I just have to show up and give them a number. I do everything you mention above, owner, climber, sales, payroll, everything. I would never split my responsibilities or $$$$...

    "So I ask you- what can your potential clients find out about your company before your owner shows up?" Nick We list our favorite drinks and bars on our website. Zale gave me the advice. HAHA! ;D Treeman75, I think you're talking about doing $1,000 gross by noon. No way your saying $1,000...

    Is the Carlton chain sharpener any good?

    Nobody is using one here. I guess I better buy one, and see for myself. Let you all know.

    How do you handle the sales?

    What do you think about this? I and the owner do about $200 a day with two groundies doing $12 an hour. We at the job make the same pay every day. The owner does better some days, and worse than 200 other days averaging out about 200 - 300 a day. At this point he does nothing but getting in...

    How do you handle the sales?

    LOL, I'm just thinking of what I used to stand there with the residential customers and think, "If it's that easy, why don't go buy a harness, and climb that #### thing yourself? Oh, and then just hump that wood out of your landscaping too. It's easy peasey, isn't it buddy?" Ugh! I couldn't...

    Anybody tried this, and think it was worth the money, or is there better?

    How do you handle the sales?

    I can't stand residential work. After a day like today and this weekend, the owner didn't make much more than crud on the two jobs. I know just how bad that is after years of it myself, but here I am now working for him, making my pay checks, solid climber and having laughs with the customers...

    How do you handle the sales?

    Sales for me seems like the last frontier in my tree life maybe as it should be. I had started to become good at it to the point that the customer and I could have a genuinely good time every time, and then I'd come back to make the money. Focusing on personality development was starting to...

    How do you handle the sales?

    In my experience handling sales was like getting fired every day multiple times. It often took me for a spin, and it just compounded the stress of completing the jobs. I've heard it's like that for most people, but I wonder how you handle it?

    Ever hire a previous tree service owner?

    I wound up making a deal with another owner after I closed my tree service. I run the operations, climb, use my truck, chipper, saws for the best wages I've ever made, and the owner does all of the sales, and covers costs like fuel, dump, tools, insurance...... The 1 best business move I've...

    Are nails in an old Canary Date Palm okay?

    Tightly bind a section of heavy gauge steel fence around the trunk where the hole is. The hole stays dry, no nails in the tree, and nothing can chew its way into the hole. Problem solved.
