    Sales incentives, short term and long term.

    Ward - There are LOTS of guys making this much $. Some even more....just sayin. Also, though most guys making this much are usually running 1-2 tree crews and 1-2 PHC guys full time as well. It's hard to make that kind of money JUST selling treework.

    Propiconazole & Pentra Bark?

    What would you be treating for? I'm not sure propiconizole is labeled for bark sprays.....but then again I'm not positive.

    Sales incentives, short term and long term.

    TreeHead, you bring up some good points. Each business IS different. But I do think there is something to be said from learning from other companies, both large AND small. The large companies are large for a reason...in general they usually have superior business practices and models. That's...

    Sales incentives, short term and long term.

    5% is pretty low. Most full time sales reps at larger tree companies make $100,000-$200,000. If you can sell $800,000/year then you'd need to be around 15% to be "average." I'd see if you can get your boss to split the profit instead. If you got to keep 40% of the profit, then you'd have...

    Introducing Deep Root Fertilizing

    This is pretty spot on. I would just add that while it is possible, sometimes it's not worth the hassle. Mechanical Agitation will work far better. I've seen too many poly tank rigs clog up with this stuff. If you can get it to work thought, great. Doggett recently came out with some SRN...

    Introducing Deep Root Fertilizing

    This is a great service to offer but only if done well. I do several hundred thousand in fertilization so here are a few tips: -Doggett makes great products and arguably the best tree fertilizers. However, any of their powdered products will not work in traditional sprayers (poly tanks). You...

    Forecasting projections.

    Right on! This is one of the most concise descriptions on pricing and projections I've seen on here. I would only add that it seems like lots of guys on here have very impressive backlogs and are always trying to figure out how to get it done, but based on some of the rates I see on here (and...

    When to go on my own?

    I would definitely recommend going out on your own, ASAP. However, I would really be honest regarding your business metrics and systems first. It IS entirely possible to make much more money working for yourself and I don't agree with some of the posts that it should take some time to build...

    Tree Spraying Equipment Needed

    I have a 200 gallon John Bean Sprayer with mechanical agitation (paddles) welded on to a small trailer. It's great for fert and spraying small trees (+/-25'). You could probably get it to spray higher by putting a bigger hose or engine on it. Call me if you're interested Nick 843-247-2520.

    Wanted! 6" chipper...

    Re: Wanted! 6\" chipper... Most traditional tree care companies don't use 6" chippers. I would look at craigslist, farms, landscapers, municipalities, auctions, etc. I bought a 6" Vermeer chipper and it was great. I think you're on to something, they're great for ornamental pruning. Usually...
