    Hey man. How ya doin' ? The main thing I strive to do every day is to do every single task a little bit better, faster, or smarter than I did yesterday. Right now I am concentrating on tool and parts placement/retrieval during a field job. It's very important if you are tired of hunting for tools or parts during a job. I used to get to a job, work like a maniac putting utilized tools or removed parts where ever, and then hunting for them later. Sometimes they would disappear into thin air. Very frustrating.
    -
    Now I carry two buckets. One for tools one for parts (later used for trash). Nothing ever gets lost and tools are easy to put back properly on the Service Truck. Old broken parts/trash can be easily thrown away. I used to think, "I don't have room to carry 2 empty buckets." but now i stack 'em and have a place; and it pays off.
    -
    Yesterday, a job that used to take two hours, only took one hour, strictly because of this system, along with carrying a new Cordless 3" cutoff wheel Dremel. Faster. Better.Smarter. It's doubling my incoming cash flow every day, in every way.

    I just have a question for you. Do you have a general contractors license or any other licenses? I'm in Arizona and I've been in construction for 25 years and I'm thinking about getting my own license to make some extra cash on the side next year. We have handyman license has which allow up to $700 repairs but that's not a lot of money considering the rural area I live in and how much traveling in time it would take any thoughts on that?

    No! The most important place for you to be is Google and you start with a Google My Business listing. Yelp is a terrible place to advertise. The return on investment is low. I’m really glad this worked for you but if anyone needs a walkthrough on how to get found online please contact me and I will walk you through it for FREE. This is what I do for a living!

    I’m already doing some of that stuff I plan on advertising in November. I’m afraid of actually getting business I think. I’ve done a business computer networking service company before but not at a mass appeal scale to residential customers. You didn’t talk about answering the phone. Sometimes I think not answering is about making people try harder so you know they are serious. Maybe a dumb idea. Everyone seems to text these days. I bet your wife does the phone huh? What about when you are just one guy and in the middle of a job? Did you find any ingenious ways of handling it smoothly? Where do I get a spiffy uniform with patches like you? I see mechanics where them and some service companies like air conditioners. I want a green shirt with white patches.
