For many of us we are now into leaf season. I’m sure for some of you this means the year is wrapping up and for others this is just a way for you to transition into snow. Either way, we want to know how you are charging this year for leaf removal services. Are you giving the customer an “exact” cost, an estimate or are you charging by the hour? Remember, its not right or wrong but we want to know what way more contractors are using.
We are also going to be posting a new snow blog in the coming days so be ready!

Are you planning to further diversify your services this year? If so, what services are you adding?
Remember, diversification means more opportunities for you to increase your PROFITS! The more services you can offer to your existing customer base as well as new clientele, the more they will call you and not your competitor. In any economy but especially now, you must diversify your services to meet your customers needs and increase PROFITS.
