If I was a gambling man, and I am. I would put all my money on Mr. brass.✌️
Keep doing you! People get jealous
Bro, your doing better than 99 percent out here... keep up the great work. Your feeding families with your business.
Thank you for your insight you’re inspiring me as a newly licensed electrician
Lol! Haters will hate! Whatever works for u is what matters in the long run! Much success as always brother! Bid on!
Why did you do it ?
Are you Bald 😊
@@lindseyparker3447 clearly lol

Do you give free estimates or charge a fee to go out on residential service?
@@dregs8026 I do. I’ll tell them that in advance, but if they push me for a price, I’ll give them a ballpark and if we’re not even in the same area on price I won’t go do it. I don’t wanna waste my time for a fucking trip charge you know. I don’t advertise because I don’t want people calling me because they saw my business name and number somewhere. I want people calling me because they know what I do and then I’m good at it. I don’t usually have to negotiate price. Residential service just comes to me because people know me. I charge a fair rate. I don’t really do anything for less than about 400 bucks. I’m fair and I make my money on the big stuff.
Got half way through and hit a tangent about Indian's wasn't all that necessary, may have been more at the end but got sick of hearing about how tight you felt indian people were. Given hypotheticals are too hard for you to grasp, I'll rephrase: If you were to set up a stand-alone service business right now you'd hit reds and have to nut it out just like you did earlier this year when construction went red. Margin pricing gives a false sense of security, it's only effective if revenue is where it needs to be, or higher... which prettymuch means maximising every booked job, taking us back at the "salesmen". Take a wild guess as to why it's working in this case.... you're using already covered labour and overhead, aka, a subsidised service.
@@Mr-Yan. you’re wrong. I got here using margin pricing. I was able to generate a surplus of revenue and used the profits to gain more assets and the ability to do more work. I built my construction side by subsidizing it with the Service side in fact. At first, I was just covering costs because I wasn’t efficient and good at it yet and it took so much more money with all the insurance requirements and other bullshit. I had to use Service to cover the Construction. Once I had everything sorted things got different. And your hypothetical is pointless. I can give you the same hypothetical. If you were to generate the revenue, I generate what would you charge for Service? I’d like to compare numbers. You missed the best part where I get into the MSA’s I have with different properties. I bet that my service numbers are better than yours. I bet that off of margin pricing I generate more money than you do both in revenue and in profits. I’m willing to put it all on the table expose every bit of my Business info to you if you’ll do the same. We both need call volume right? You act like me needing high revenue is something you don’t require as well. I think you’re walking over dollars to pick up dimes and I think that if we actually compared our numbers, you would be surprised. Take the challenge. Let’s do a Google meet and put all of our numbers on the table. I’ll show you all of my QuickBooks information and banking information if you do the same for me. I’ll show you how much money I make off of Service and how much it cost me. I’ll let you see my payroll numbers and all the other nitty-gritty. You do the same for me and let’s see who’s really making money. I’ve got happy customers, happy employees, and I’m busier than a Christmas sweater. Let’s put it all out on the table and I’ll bet your mines bigger than yours since you wanna talk
@brasshouse9822 I'm not here to read the bible, should be able to convey a point succinctly. You can't grasp hypotheticals and can't differentiate things that work in isolation from things that work in concert. Map your service side in isolation like rusty did and the epiphany will be bigger than the moment you turned your business around this year. Confidence > competence.
@@Mr-Yan. I have different cost codes for service work. I know exactly how it does. I generate anywhere from 60-80k/month in Service on a 50% margin or better. I’ll prove it
@brasshouse9822 You don't need to "prove" anything. Forest for the trees
@@Mr-Yan. what kind of revenue are you generating?
Brass i wanted to say that you are a huge inspiration to me. your lessons and videos are awe inspiring. NOT one single bad video. I going to join the plumbers union and aspire to be as successful as you are one day!
@@AaronJiang-x8h hell yeah. Thanks dude. I appreciate that.
@@brasshouse9822 thanks brass!
@@brasshouse9822he hasn’t seen your video with the osha safety background music yet. 😅😂
Brass man, what you were saying about subsidizing service with your install work is exactly what was happening to my business before I raised my prices on my hourly rates for service. I was losing money every service I did.
@@rustybridges4302 then you were doing it wrong. I’m not in that boat. My service dominates and built everything I have. It’s what got me here.
Yeeeeep
4:18 should have gave a shout out to Dr Green Plumb here who changed the way I did slab leaks. Dope channel to watch.
‘murica brother 👍
Ay that's shits so funny every time you say the word gay😂 here in California you mite do life if you get caught saying that shit. Fkn love it . Stay up
@@marcoduenas205 lol people have told me about that before but I just grew up saying it. Some shit is just gay you know. No hate intended.
This was a great video. Your channel has so much value. KEEP IT UP 🦅
Skies the limits if you want to get off your ass and earn it! No free meals were given 2 me ! USA for the win!
I'm a Canadian plumber and I love America also, have you heard of American companies sponsoring Canadian plumbers to come work?
Fellow high school dropout here too lol. Also a Happy belated 4th
Hey brother, what client management system do you use?

Hell yeah dude, I’ve lived most of my life in Greece, I’m from Albania and I’ve seen the life in these countries and multiple countries in Europe. I’m 25 supporting me and my wife in school doing everything by myself and that’s because here the opportunity is endless, you just have to work for it! I appreciate USA and I always make sure to mention that to people who haven’t seen abroad!

Your godamn right my man.
$5600 per day?
@@Embeezly more like 7,500-8,000 but we have to buy a lot of material and pay a lot of wages.
Thanks man! BTW the mic sounds much more clear on this video.
37 years in plumbing interested in your channel. But to me the only thing that matters is proper rough in of cource that rough in gotta fit the finish not nessesarily generic. if your rough is wrong finish wont work. maybe youare bidding work per fixture x dollars for a lav and x dollars per toilet add up costs of the purchase of fixtures and then a certain number gets added for the rough in based on fixture count .
4:34 Wrong! The universal principle is, when you plan or practice any sequential process from end result toward first steps you're setting up the process to pick up speed and get easier as you execute it. I've heard it called Reverse Chaining.
Good job. Save that bread 🎉
So if you want to make 30% why do you divide by 0.7? Shouldn’t you times by 1.3?
@@henrymahoney7072 no, that would be a 30% mark up. If you do that your profit won’t represent 30% of the sale. You divide the cost by .7 so that way it represents 70% of the final sale price. Let’s say you are selling something that costs you $100. If you do a 30% mark up you don’t get 30% profit. Example, 100 x 1.3 = 130. $30 is not 30% of a $130 sale. that’s not a 30% profit. To get a 30% profit margin on 100 you need to divide by .7 so 100/.7= 142.85. If you do the math and see what 30% of the final sale number of $142.85 by multiplying 142.85 x .3 you will see that it is 42.85. Meaning the cost of the sale was 100 which represents 70% of the final sale price and the gross margin is 42.85 which equals 30% of the final sale price.
Hel yea dude. Keep it up
San Antonio here, right on bro
Balls deep! Full shaft! Hahahaha
you are so valuable, thank you
All your money in the bank and you’re talking numbers that exceed the “insured” 250k. Hope the banks don’t go under.
@@BigLeagueDrew you and me both dude.
You can hold money in multiple banks and have more money insured. Also at this level you should start thinking about other money products like money markets and bond etfs etc so your money retains its value or even earns money.
@@Circamyspace I’m gonna let you in on a secret. The fdic doesn’t have the money to cover anything.
Thanks for a great video!
Right on! Always have to remain teachable to learn new things! Also helps you learn from your mistakes! Plan on and hope you continue winning your bids!
I feel like I can make the most money if I can get the job done as fast as I possibly can and for me that’s really the key
It takes the right kind and not rework idiots
💪

Corporate does love seeing those 3 ring binders! 😂
I'm definitely curious why you had to fire your buddy hopefully we get to hear more about that
Gotta be really careful about broadcasting numbers on videos, there are now documents to that effect. The UNCLE, will use them against you. It's good that you're excited and motivated, but you never know whom you are talking to on here.
You might be right. I don’t think I draw too much attention but it’s possible. You never know though. They do some shady shit these days.
I’m so worried about not making enough money with going on my own but I have a eBay business on the side and getting my rpz testing license to try to keep it up because there is one rpz tester in orange lol.
Thank you for these videos
Thanks for your wisdom g. Keep grinding.
THE BRASSMAN SPEAKETH
Give your buddy all the money earned from the video in the first 6 months. We win, your buddy wins.
I’ve been watching you for a while and I’ve been wanting to get into construction plumbing but not sure where to start since all these other guys on YT make it look all sunshine and rainbows. I’m currently 17 and it’s something I’m looking forward too hopefully you can make a video for that and I appreciate those long videos but basically was wondering if you can create some step by step/pathway for those looking to get into construction plumbing. You motivate me man real shit Congrats man!
