What is the difference between this course and the Pressure Washing Blueprint? Where should I start first if I'm looking to start a pressure washing business?

[@skiffy9833]

@@josuefernandez3244 do not buy their course they're gatekeepers everything you can learn from them you can learn online or by calling other professionals in the business whether that be suppliers or other pressure washer businesses outside of your area

[@mightymarlo3101]

@@skiffy9833 thanks I appreciate this information. Because 400$ is outrageous. For new players coming into this game it’s an way unnecessary cost. On top of equipment. And for me I gotta get a truck first lol.

[@jamesprovosthemingway4285]

You're definitely making it sound much harder than it is. I've been power washing for 20 years. From New York to Florida to Virginia. And if someone can't figure out the stuff you're talking about before they actually start the business, then they have a bigger problem. But I definitely give you a thumbs up on understanding that lots of people act before they think.

[@Everythinggutter]

Don’t let anything stop you. You want your own business, just start. I am going to have to make a free course to cover the simple details👍

Why train your replacement for free

[@fredluther3476]

Got your back, lets do it. If your established you don't have to worry.😀

[@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1245]

​@8SecSleeper practice what you preach, no? You're either teaching because you can't do, or because you understand the process from doing it. If you're good at what you do then you don't have to worry about competition, in fact, they should motivate you to be better. Despite better prices, some people will choose to work with you because you've build the relationship and they just like you.

[@insqnjty]

good content, a bit blunt on the course advertising. anyway, whoever edits these videos NEEDS to stop with the sound effects for the subtitles (i would probably completely remove them from the video personally). but yeah it makes it SO hard to focus on what Aaron is saying.

I am not in the pressure washing industry, HOWEVER, when listening to teachers/gurus give more time to the ones that will tell you the downsides as bluntly as this was over those that say "15 yr old kid makes 360k a year with $50 investment" great video with honest business advice!

[@dacoup5955]

The rock up the hill metaphor is a perfect description of what it is to run a business, my dad started his bistro business and it was wildly successful until the 2008 mortgage crisis which buried us ... I learned a lot through those years, they where long hours and sometimes no pay but it was great experience.

[@corymounts2]

My favorite part of these comments is how all you people trying to give him video editing or wash biz advice but have never made a video or have nowhere near the experience nor business acumen he does. I have been "in the game" for six years and I talk to and try to learn from everyone who does this, no matter the experience level. That's why we've grown from making 10k our first year to well over 100k per year... part-time. Bulldog Exterior Clean LLC SWMO

Well, I put out the $ on marketing BUT have much to learn CRM/QB & bookkeeping/ and the GMB stuff. Even Facebook is brand new learning cure. Also starting w portable pressure washer and moving ramps and ladders and rolling hoses dragging hoses around. This is hard work and not for sissy boys and girls. Having said that I love it! I will NEVER forget the ass kicking in all areas I got this first season, but it is all worth it and it is going to get easier

Welcome

[@CatchPhraseJones]

Good points, had me a lil worried with the title at first but none of this was hardly ugly in my opinion . I’ve been saying it over a year now how I’m going to make marketing my main focus going into this ,and take it slow . Even having a nice website done and getting my foot in the door on seo , marketing campaigns , making flyers to hang up on door handles , business cards , social media ads , hiring freelancers to help with logos ,and marketing as well (going to start using bots tho)and now I’m literally in the process of getting established with google and creating my actual LLC as we speak all before I have even spent a dime on a single piece of equipment.

[@NatyDready]

How is it going now

[@orlandovega6958]

Any updates?

[@LooniJoose]

Seems like a little much for pressure washing, but I ain't sh##.

[@mlhm5]

You forgot that regardless of what PW business cleans there is little difference in the final result and there is a ton of completion out there so customers think the service is pretty generic. Specialize if you want to differentiate your business, like cleaning service station and bank concrete as well as dumpster pads where there is a lot of oil/grease. Hot water is far better for grease/oil than cold.

[@user-iv6bj3dn3e]

“Pressure washers are prone to breaking” *Honda has entered the chat*

I'm gonna share a super creative secret to marketing your new pressure washing business. Target where you want to advertise. For this business I'd shoot for fast food restaurants and get the dumpster pads. And the outskirts of major cities such as get your advertising in the Calder sacks and good neighborhoods where the money is at. Make some stickers with your business name and brand, phone number, logo, website. I'd say about 200 to 400 stickers Then sign up to be a Amazon Flex driver. When you get a block to deliver, pick the neighborhoods you want to advertise. As you deliver these Amazon packages, put your sticker on the top part of the box where the people look to read who's name is on the package. Make sure your advertisement is going to be seen. Not only will you get paid to deliver these packages but you are going to be able to pinpoint where you advertise your business. This method is good for your hometown and you can start up a business pretty much anywhere you want to move to. Try it, it's a great idea to market your new business and you can pick where you want to market.

I have a 5 gallon jug of sodium hypochlorite in my garage I’ve had for 3 months. How long does it takes for Sodium hypochlorite to degrade?

[@Butchman2000]

Depends on variables of temperature, pressure (chlorine is generated slowly and gasses out), and contaminants. If you have a closed bucket of sub-10%, it should retain about 50-60% after 6 months if cool. High concentrations, elevated temps, or impurities cause faster degradation. If older than six mo, just get some fresh solution. Source: bleach manuf experience as chemist

[@vincentramirez8188]

Pro tip: turn the pressure washer on and wash. Start on your own driveway and friends and family. Easy. If you can’t afford to buy one start out renting them. Write down your price points, do 3 different price tiers, most people will pick the middle tier. Marketing: go door to door in a nice neighborhood leave cards start an AI website with Hostinger. Easy peazy. This isn’t rocket science. I was a real estate agent too, same idea. You have to know who can afford what you are offering and where the market is.

Hello Aaron, my name is Javier. I am writing to you because some time ago in 2022 I bought the course. "The Pressure Washing Blueprint", unfortunately the computer where the course was located got infected with a virus and wiped my entire hard drive, at this time I am beginning to resume the pressure cleaning business in earnest and would like to see the possibility of to have the course again to be able to do things as they should be done. I have almost assembled my trailer to begin with, but I am missing some details that are making it very difficult for me to solve, I would like to know how to send you my doubts and see the possibility of clarifying these doubts. I would like to have the possibility of counting on you to solve them, one of them is the BayPass I have a Simpson 4200 PSI 4 GPM pump an AAA pump and they told me that a BayPass cannot be connected to the compensation tank to that pump, please I would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you
