Underground drains
Good morning community! Yesterday I completed my biggest ticket to date ! And it came from a flyer I left at a home that did no t answer to my door knock. $365 and the client didn’t bat an eye!!! My question today is I knew he had underground downspouts drains that went to his French drain with that in mind I went a little bit higher in price than what I usually charge . I bought the Amazon sewer jetter kit that was $60 and it worked like a charm so now I am thinking of having that as a add on service and keeping my regular rate for the top of the gutter to the bottom of the downspouts above ground. My question is what do you think is a good price for each underground downspout to get it jet thanks guys

That is a good question, I’m curious to know as well. One thing you could do is you can Google search the average cost in your area to have an underground downspout cleaned out, and go from there
Lead Generation
Someone may have already suggested this, but have you thought about finding leads on Nextdoor? Nextdoor is a neighborhood community app that allows neighbors to communicate and get to know each other. You can also create a business page. There's always someone on there looking for all kinds of services. Over the years, I've personally hired people on Nextdoor for roof repair, fence repair, lawn maintenance, plumbing, and a/c work. You can use Nextdoor in conjunction with knocking on doors. They are strict on advertising in the general comments area, but if someone is asking for help, you can definitely offer your services. What's also nice about Nextdoor is that you have access to your local area, so you won't have to worry about responding to someone who is outside of your local area. You should be able to find the app on both ios and android, but if you have trouble, just enter nextdoor.com on your browser to join.

Been using it for a couple months now and have only gained 1 lead from it, which is a significant one and hopefully I get the jobs that I quoted them on / gave them a bid on. I guess it depends on what neighborhood you live in. My manager at my old job said that he used Nextdoor for a little bit, but noticed that virtually nobody in his neighborhood was on there.
My Business Is Starting To Gain Traction
Yesterday I went out door knocking at a much earlier time than I usually do. The problem is that many, if not most of the neighborhoods in my area that are ideal for knocking doors for gutter cleaning jobs are “No Soliciting” HOAs. It’s also required by law in Florida to have a solicitors permit (which by my understanding is only good for one year before you have to pay the fee again — I can’t afford that right now). I was able to secure 1 job for next week, 1, potential job for January and got 2 other leads. Emailed or texted these folks a quote PDF. I am also putting together a bid for a bigger job, which is centered mostly around gutter and drainage repairs (never done gutter repairs before). Some exciting stuff! But all of this to say that the glory belongs to God for supplying the work and leads!

Quote IQ!?
Hey guys, as you know I've recently started up my exterior cleaning business after the craziness of moving to Texas. Just wanted you guys to know that I signed up with quote IQ for my CRM. They had a $1 for the first month, any package. So I'll be leaving some of my reviews and thoughts on it here shortly. Have any of you guys ever used it? https://get.myquoteiq.com/p3eo13oataoi

@Brett Patrick Is this the QuickBooks self employed app? Do you use it for customers to book service, get quotes, send invoices and for business banking?

@Brett Patrick Okay great, thank you! Is Square Appointments basically the same as Quote IQ? That is what I was recommended to use by a friend / fellow small business owner
