Become Your Own Boss - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Thank you for that video!
@@becomeyourownboss2193 I do actually. I got money to buy a ladder and I'm looking for something cheap but tall enough to reach most 2-3 story buildings. I live in an area with only 2 story buildings and a ladder is essential. I also don't have a car so ill mostly walk with it or my dad can put it inside of his car so I also need something not too bulky. Any suggestion? Thank you
@@becomeyourownboss2193 yes i do
Strongly recommend this everyone!! Im 15 and made 200$ and only cleaned 6 trash bins today!! Make sure u wear face protection though it can get rough
I love to see people out here making it happen! 😎
Thank you for sharing your cleaning process!
After just finding out about this business a few days ago definitely makes me wanna get started asap. I tried my own recycling bin with just a pressure gun and water hose with some cleaning chemicals and saw how easy it is! And $30 a can is well worth it knowing you can knock 3 out in less than an hour. Can't wait to get started!
Heck yeah man. I'm happy for you. It's not everyday you see a young man that gets it. Your own boss, your own schedule, your own property, your own business, and can grow it!
Thank you! I wouldn’t have it any other way!
Thank u for sharing, ur an inspiration for those wanting to make money in a straight forward way
I did this and me and my friend made about $200 on the first day charging $10 a trash can.
This is awesome! I love to see people come out here and making it happen! A closed mouth never gets feed.
Did more people reject you or did the majority say yes?
@@Treliger you gonna get rejected a lot of times. But eventually you’ll land some clients
Just please get better at your pitch at the door the first one is 35 the second one is 15 you should be getting 50 per house and for the cheap skates you're going to lose on 20 bucks you're going to get more 50s to make up for it and make way more you want to make minimum a thousand a day that's how it is nowadays if you don't make a thousand a day you're following behind
Heii thank you for that video
I'm planning on doing this too actually been planning to do it
I just bought material now m only left with actually going out and do a practical
The only thing stopping you from being in business is you"... know this and hear it all the time... But it hits differently now that I'm ready to stop holding myself back. You just gained a subscriber!
Thank you!
What do you do if they have bags or a lot of stuff in the bin? Do you ask them to take it out and then put it back after or what’s the deal?
Great advice!
You got it on point man make 500 to 1,000 a days a teenager that's pretty good and yes you do not need to clean them a thousand percent clean just get them mostly clean and smelling good
Nice one, respect
What would be a reasonable price to start off 15$? How hard would you say it is getting clients is it hard or are people willing to
What do I need to start the business do you have the links to buy them thank you
How and when do the customers pay you?
I started this business as a 13 year old and I'm currently 14. I made $100 in one afternoon, but I haven't been able to get a single job since those ones. I also can't drive yet, so I have to resort to riding my bike to where ever the job is. I usually deliver fliers with information about my service in mailboxes to try and get jobs. Are there any suggestions on how I can get more jobs? Any marketing tactics that have worked for any of you in the past?
Thank you for asking! My suggestion are not in order, I just wrote down some suggestions.
I would recommend exhausting your neighborhood within a half mile or mile radius. Hopefully an adult can help you drop off your flyers to make sure that you are safe! Safety first!
List your business on Nextdoor app, this app is amazing because you can list your service in your local area and not the whole city.
Write hand flyers and not printed flyers, people might think it’s junk mail and throw it away.
Take your hand written letter and picture of you cleaning a trash can and tape it to the trash cans for each house on trash day. This way when people bring in their trash cans, they will notice your hand written flyer and picture of your services.
Take a picture of you cleaning the trash bins for that people can see that your a young entrepreneur and will possibly be more willing to support your business.
Consider offering your services in exchange for a donation rather than a set price.
Depending on your area and income demographic, people may not be able to afford your services.
List your business on other local classifieds like (5miles) Busy and Sell Locally and OfferUp.
Walk down your street with an adult family member and ask your neighbors if there is something that you can clean up around their front yard, wash their car or walk their dog for a donation but only on your street and under a family member supervision to ensure your safety!
My point is that maybe they do need help with something around the house but it isn’t with their trash cans.
Opportunity is everywhere around us and it’s up to us to find a need and provide a solution to peoples problems!
Follow up with the people that you once cleaned their trash cans and see if they would like to reschedule for a maintenance cleaning.
Offer a service that you can charge people to bring out their trash cans and bring them back in on trash day for a donation or a small fee.
Rake up peoples leaves or anything that you can think of to put some money in your pocket!
On trash day, have a bright yellow sign that tells everyone that you clean trash bins for a fee or donation! Make sure that you post it in your front yard every trash day for a month and see what response you get!
Unfortunately at your age, you are limited to traveling a further distance from your house. Don’t let this stop you from trying to offer your services!
Go to small businesses in your local area and ask them if there is a weekly or monthly service that they can have you do an exchange for some money or a donation. Make sure that it’s a small business and not a corporate company because a small business can pay you without a corporate approval.
I hope that this helps, please let me know if you have any questions, I’m here to help!
Good video's, how much to bring there bins back in from the street?
alright alright, you got me motivated! im doing this for a side hustle!
If you still respond to comments i would like to ask a question? How do you get customers, as im interesting in started but wonder how to get new and recurring clients.
Are you still doing this? I stay in L.A, i never seen this type of service in the hood. I can't charger $15-20 a bin. It's too high for low income families. What would you recommend?
10 bucks and a blunt
I got a couple questions, first of all what power washer do you recommend ( yours if possible since it’s cheap ) and what should I do if customers have an entire garbage bag inside of their garbage what should I say to the customer
You have to try and figure out when the trash comes around to catch it while it’s empty
Buy the cheapest one that you can find at Home Depot or a garage sale. You don’t need a lot of pressure to clean a bin. It’s a trash bin and will get dirty again soon.
Have a trash bag from the grocery store and place their trash in these bags or you can buy some large trash bags and use them to place the loose trash in.
Try to have a mindset of getting it done! Do wait until trash pickup day to make money, go out and make it happen!
Dominate your neighbors in your local neighborhood! You don’t need to travel far to make money.
Don’t try to be perfect, make it happen!
What can I use to carry my pressure washer chemicals and tools for the job if I have no car I’ll be waking on foot around my neighborhood?
Get s bike trailer
I started doing the same side hustle and I had a question from a potential client "what do you do with the dirty water and yuck?" What would be a good way for me to respond??
Will don’t say but on the grass say I put it on the street
Check with local water laws. I have to collect the water after washing the bins, it’s considered grey water and not suitable for storm drain water.
Lol
While it’s illegal to have that water flow down, honestly depending on where the storm drains are, the water usually will not reach it unless the drain is right there. Unfortunately, I’ve seen carpet cleaners dump their water down the drains. Some municipalities lies when they say it goes to the ocean. By law, that water must be treated regardless if it’s going to the ocean or not. That’s why it honestly wouldn’t matter.
What do you do with the waste water?
Nothing. I literally rinse it out to the street. Code enforcement isn’t going to stop you or speak to you unless you have a professional presence like a truck with a vehicle wrap. Most mobile detailers, don’t even reclaim their water like they should.
Can you explain to me about how much to charge for recurring customers? and is it bi weekly or monthly you come back
$30 each time. Monthly, always ask your clients what schedule they would like. When they are comfortable paying on there schedule, you will get less cancellations.
Question I live in California, do you require to have a permit?
Code enforcement requires that anyone operating a business, have a city license to work within the city limits.
Also, you are supposed to reclaim your wastewater. Honestly, as long as you do have a truck with a company logo on it, then no one is going to bother you. Especially if you are a teenager.
If this is what you do on a professional level and have invested $100,000 into this then yes.
my son is almost 11 y/o.....4'11" and I'm ready for him to start next week!
This is awesome! I’m confident that he can dominate his local neighborhood with this service and expand to nearby neighborhoods. Please let me know if you have any questions and I will get back to you. 🙏
I think about doing it I’m 14 and going door to door and maybe charging $20 and what if they have trash in there cans should I say I show you the results then I just put the trash back in the cans and if you have any other tips you can gave me that will be really helpful
you can do this every day, take pictures and send them text messages to their mobile phone. Ask them to share with neighbors and friends.
Bro ive been thinking of doing this but i got door knocking to find my clients. Ill use a sells pitch, im for sure making a couple K by the end of the month
Any luck so far?
What psi is your pressure washer
I believe it’s 1600 psi.
I tried it on my trash cans and it did not go will first some dirty was coming off then non like all the dirt and stuff is stuck I tried water nothing and a scrub and soap nothing will work you have any things I should use I have a pressure washer with 2900 psi and that not working too tell me if you have any tips
Can you upload a video to TH-cam and send me the link to your video?
Your pressure washer is more than enough to remove most debris off a trash bin.
What debris is on your trash bin?
I did it some left a little bit of dirt but I did another trash can and it did not go as good it like black thing with dirt that not coming off
How much psi is your green pressure washer?
1600 psi.
How much you charge? I'm not a teenager but I've had luck picking the cans up and cleaning them at my house.
I now charge $100 flat fee to clean up to three bins. Charge $20 each bin to start out.
Good man I get 80 bucks forget 59 I used to do that I get just as many people at 80 bucks I can get 20 a day I can get 10 a day just dinners how many people I want to go to their homes and guys always hire a pretty girl to go up front and not going to doors and get them to say yes it's got to be a pretty girl not a guy
my boi wear some gloves!! maybe a pump sprayer but that aside you gained yourself a new subscriber!
In NY no one is going to pay 30 dolars for each Bin probably 10 or 12 dolars
How many people in North Hills have you asked and how many people in New Square have you asked?
Have you actually asked anyone?
I wouldn’t be surprised if you are the only person that told you that you can’t do this.
What service can you offer in your local area that people would be more than willing to pay to have Kenny provide, instead of them having to do it?
I find your comment interesting because most of my clients actually have their main residence in New York.
Money is what makes this world go around! Wake up each day and ask yourself, who’s gots my money? Kenny, who’s got your money!
🙏
What do you mean that you have costumes in NY if you not in NY can I call you, I going to porches a Bin clean trailer to do Bins clean in long island next spring plus pawer wash services
Risk of a £20,000 fine in the UK for tipping foul water onto the floor
Really really you guys let all these African garbage immigrants in Arab Muslims come in and you're worried about fall water get real just make the money
Does every client let you use there water
I advise my clients that I use there water source and electric for me to service their trash bins. I honestly have never had a problem and have never been denied access to my clients water and electricity. This is a job that most people do not want to do themselves and they are more than willing to allow me to use their sources to get their trash bins cleaned.
@@becomeyourownboss2193 how can i book you to clean my bins?
not sure if you know but there is custom built trucks that can easily do it in 30-40 seconds.. let me know if you want their names!
Hello and thank you for sharing! I have looked into this.
@@becomeyourownboss2193 I have a homemade system that I can show you! what's your facebook?
@@juicylyricstv1640 hey man do you think you could show me your setup to?
@@juicylyricstv1640 how much
THe problem with custom built like the ones you see on youtube that costs 30k... fuck that. If you can build it yourself on a trailer its much cheaper.
Gloves, mask, and protective googles
I think you can get $45 a bin
I would suggest wearing gloves for hygiene
Isn't it illegal to dispose of that dirty water into the sewer
I live in California and yes it is illegal for a business to allow your waste water to run off in the street. Home owners are not held to the same standers as a business. Honestly, I see mobile detailers and other contractors due this all the time. Once you get enough money, I would definitely encourage you to be compliant with your local ordnance’s. Check to see if your local ordnance has this in place. We all have to start somewhere.
What is the cleaning solution? A degreaser?
I like using simple green from Home Depot but any degreaser will work.
Really need to lose weight.
Preach pastor! Because of you, I didn’t eat McDonald’s today! God bless!
@@becomeyourownboss2193 you’re welcome
That’s rude asf
@@texastrucks7204 Giving healthy advice is rude?
It was rude, I promise he already knew.
