Land Clearing With Small Equipment 

Thanks bud! There’s power in knowing what niche to target! My area it’s hard to find “small” companies to do these little jobs. You are absolutely correct, and I know you speak from experience. Be honest and transparent with clients. I have to pass on a few jobs myself because I know another company can provide a more competitive bid estimate than I can.

@@BulldogTractor Yep, exactly. I hear two things from a lot of my customers: #1 is no one else ever answers the phone or calls them back, and #2 is that there isn't anyone out there doing the small jobs (like I specialize in). I had 3 or 4 people this spring tell me that there isn't anyone else out there even tilling gardens. Knowing yourself is key like you said. I get in trouble any time I break my own rules....lol

You know that’s true! Side note: make sure to change accordingly. Not saying overcharge, but don’t sell yourself short either. Small contractors are a dying breed 🤷‍♂️. I still don’t understand why, our small jobs are fun! A little bit of stress, but still primarily FUN! Cheers 🍻

@@BulldogTractor Definitely my weak point. I never charge enough. I just got back from an estimate on a multi-dimensional job. On the stump grinding part I feel like my quote is high, but then the guy told me what they're paying a tree service to take out each of the trees and my number is a drop in the bucket compared to that. Very thankful I'm not dependent exclusively on the income from my tractor business. At least it gives me the flexibility to give people a less expensive option to the big companies. Totally agree with the fun part! Well, sometimes you're an hour in and wondering why you took the job, but for the most part fun...lol
