Just what I needed to hear I'm still on the right track 3 yrs in painting business here in WA just started taking on some commercial contracts grinding my ass off for now and no plan on slowing down anytime soon myself being out there i love it. LFG!!!

[@ryansilva1024]

2:47 “I’ve seen the moon go round and round 32 times” WUT?

[@baldonislandscaping3850]

Science may not be the forte

[@Youtube7Account7]

I just started my own pool and landscaping services this week

[@nomadcrows]

Good stuff here. I do feel the need to comment that if you fail in a business venture that does not turn you into a turd, in fact you retain your human form just fine 😁

[@marcusjaramillo7992]

My guy the works look good , I like what you are doing for us young kings !

[@Stockbadger]

You didnt put anything between sod and pavers? Wont the pavers fall with time on the grass??

[@stanleylim8487]

this job was 18k? do you have a fixed percentage you need to profit on every job or does it vary from job to job

[@TT-ik3kd]

The mulch pouring out of the bed because they either put too much or didnt dig the edge down

[@justthejuan8160]

Dam right I can’t leave the job site with out workers saying it’s chill time

[@montoya11333]

Hey Tigran! Can I ask what camera you use for the time lapse? I have a kitchen bath company and would love to upload videos like you do. Thanks man!

[@anthonyshaw459]

T I don’t know I have these guys are haters. Keep doing your thing you’re killing it.

[@artemartem1134]

the only issue I have is with getting customers to commit to projects once scoped. and I'm the cheap guy in town! last week I sent out 5 quotes. the most expensive one was only 4 grand. none of them accepted. I can't just tell them "this job isn't big enough for me sorry" cause I need to get established and get my name out there, but at the same time it's killing me not getting commitments for jobs.

[@jeremybruce654]

Maybe your pricing is the issue. If I received quotes for 8k and 10k and you came along and said 4k it puts doubt in the customers mind that it will be done right or completed. Work on selling your jobs with confidence and what value you will bring based on quality and honesty. Don’t ever try to be the Walmart of a service based business or you will never have the money you need when things go wrong. One of the best marketing things I have seen is what 5k, 10k, 20k and on can get you based on pictures of a job. It will weed out the customers that are wasting your time.

[@smellmyhaze9852]

Act as if you don’t care too much about getting the job and listen and work with whatever the customer wants

[@dillonmennie]

dont be the cheap guy

[@Nagreenberg]

More you quote more you’ll make

[@CerretaniOutdoorsLLC]

Are you cleaned cut? Show up with a wheel/measuring tape? Notebook? Business cards or flyers? Decent vehicle? A lot of things come into play when bidding jobs

[@joelordunez1637]

Thanks

[@stephen2738]

Very good work, are you a friend of bills?

[@richardvg03]

The moon goes around the planet once a month so you’ve seen it 32x12 times.

[@reyrey90_60]

What is that aggregate you are using as a base?

[@GRUBB-MUDD]

year 4, so i guess i can snowboard on fridays

[@CerretaniOutdoorsLLC]

Let’s go baby skid steer soon!!!

[@yupkik483]

T what type of time-lapse camera you use

[@TigranGertz]

go pro

[@ironmaiden00x00]

Did I see that right? It looks like the crew skipped the geotex😬

[@intelligentcarreviews8592]

Not needed my guy

[@enzoiadevaia9019]

I agree I use it all the time but not always needed but I like it for extra cheap insurance

[@jeremybruce654]

It’s needed in retaining walls over 4’ though! I would have went deeper on the compact. It looked like 4” to me and I would have went 6” for the extra support of vehicles.

[@eduardogregori3239]

Geotex?

[@Aviator013]

Is goatgang for general contractors too?

[@TigranGertz]

yes

[@Bdigital9482]

[@joshvenegas6795]

Hey T, Where's the hat? Lol

[@LandscapeMaster33]

[@BattlestarCanada]

[@marcoramirez-ve3ti]

[@erongarcia528]

[@zonevproductions]

[@chupapi1283]

How much cost this project?

[@xxxdpgxxxx1389]

$200k

[@tiktalkwithsensei]

what mistakes?

[@justinlpugh]

Actually you saw the moon go around 960 times… just saying.

[@54565syu]

Lotta respect t but based off the information on your videos, my business makes more money than yours, with a quarter of the employees, doing only irrigation. Just think about that.

[@Pantera972]

That's irrelevant because he's making money from the videos he's made that you're watching.

[@dillonmennie]

irrigation is a way higher margin business, but you need to work a lot more man hours

[@alexcalderxn5834]

How much profit

[@liampett1313]

$2500

[@donovonpavloff970]
