In this business turnaround, we are in New Orleans where Trinity Trees is struggling to stay afloat. Cody and his team are getting jobs, but aren't able to grow. There's too much overhead and something has got to go to make room for profit. Things get uncomfortable when his crew realizes that their jobs may be at stake.

It needs to be a experienced tree service man to do sales bids on tree jobs ..the bigger companies here have arborists doing that...like this guy it's struggle to even keep employees..have zero currently..I actually seen one of your trucks in my area amongst the thousands of mowing companies and or non companies..I do both tree care and comercial landscaping/mowing ..bevause it keeps me able to have income even without help...I offer full service..where competition only do 1 or 2 things..have downsized amount of customers because cannot not find American ls to work ..they want to come on board then don't follow the rules or my standards..running buisness is a fulltime lifestyle that I enjoy ..worked 25 years for other companies and crew leader .but these kids see the KZbin and think they deserve top pay but don't put in the work and they don't respect that I worked 7days week no days off 5 years coming from nothing ..took long time building customer relations...the employees should be focused on work only and groing learning and sticking around being loyal so they can one day take over daily operations. However they only want to be over payed and don't care about work ..there in big hurry to go home..very sad every small buisness is struggling..

In any service business, you don't send a sales person out to bid a job, especially if they aren't experienced in the business you're running. You send someone out to see what needs to be done, what condition the area is in, and all the variables, take pictures and measurements and then go back tot he office and work out the time needed, equipment needed and cost to do the job. Then you call or go back with the estimate and the contract. Once the contract is signed, you have the job. This isn't selling girl scout cookies.. If they don't have a formula to give her, or make her go out, take pics, measurements, etc and go back to the office to work out the numbers, then she will forever under price their work.

Go to all your local agents and drop off business cards. Buy them doughnuts or lunch once in awhile. Your CAC decreases and your profit margains sky rocket because customers dont nickel and dime you over price. Ask me how I know....

Great video Mike your knowledge you share is amazing .The owner Cody is a good hearted man and cares about his crew from what i see in this video.I wish i could have had a boss like him . I've been in the tree business for 28 years working for various companies here in San Diego CA .Mostly as a Forman/groundman /production manger I even had my own tree service for 2 years but its a lot of work being a single dad and running a company i was working to much and not being there for my kids I couldn't find a balance . I was curious on the way the branches were being loaded up and had a few questions first one is why no chipper you can dump wood chips almost anywhere free and cut up wood to fireplace size then theres no dump fees ?second one is why did they load up branches in a bobcat to be token to trailer witch is a few feet away seems like it would be faster and cheaper just to throw straight in trailer seems like your moving the same branches more then you have too ? PS (I WAS Worried FOR CJ WHEN HE WAS USING CHAINSAW IN BACK OF TRAILER HE NEEDS SOME TRAINING ON HOW TO PROPERLY USE A CHAINSAW FROM WHAT I SAW IM NOT TRYING TO KNOCK HIM HE SEEMS LIKE A GOOD DUDE I JUST DONT WANT HIM TO GET HURT ) And my last question is what was the guy blowing in the grass?would't it be faster just to rake it up

I enjoyed watching this video! I own a boutique tree care company in Tulsa, and we are in our fourth year. I will say, I do not have anything figured out, probably about 60% actually, however, I feel like we’ve done a good job maximizing our potential, and I know every market is different. Some things I might recommend. -We ran a dump trailer for two years, and last year we purchased a new Bandit 15 XP, (I already had a 20 yard chip truck that was pulling the dump trailer with, and was anticipating a future chipper). $86,000 for a chipper seemed like a lot, but we doubled and some days quadrupled what we could get done in a day, especially when coupled with crane use. You can get rid of chips in so many places, and most of the time it’s free. -Slashing dump trailers is way more hazardous than operating a chipper (you’re running a chainsaw towards your legs in a boiling hot box, and there’s a high likelihood of a person fallen out, or injuring a leg getting in and out), especially considering nowadays almost everyone feeds a 15”+ chipper with a mini skid. -100% become an ISA Certified Arborist, and encourage your crew to achieve the same. Buy them the books, give them big bonuses for passing their certification! You need any professional credential you can get, and that paves way to become a BCMA, which very few have in most local markets. -Your crew looks a little heavy for your gross income. If you can hit the 600K range, then that crew size might be OK, but you should be able to achieve $130-160k+ per crew member annually in the South/Midwest. Lean and mean is the name of the game, and I’m sure a lot of these people you care about and are like family, but to optimize you need to cut off the fat. -I don’t believe there’s any need for a salesman within the tree industry until you’re hitting a consistent 750K or more a year. You will be the best sales person! There’s many ways to fry a cat, 😂 in my company, we work roughly four 10’s (7:30-5:00), and I bid every Monday. My crew enjoys having a three day weekend, so we go hard four days a week, and they enjoy their life for three. -Don’t focus too much on closing percentage, focus on net profit. We close about 30% of our jobs, but we are around 40-50% profit, however, we have focused hard on credentials and educating ourselves constantly to become authorities in our local industry. We tried to only book out two weeks, but with profitable work that fits our equipment and crew size. -Figure out what part of tree care or removal you do best in, and focus 75% on that. We bang out massive removals several times a month, but our big money makers are actually higher end pruning.

One thing I see a lot of these small business Owners do is they are answering the phone all the time, whether they are on a job or in their vehicle or after hours when they are with their family. Why not hire a person during the day to answer the phone part time and to manage the calls? As the owner you should have a simple script the person follows and their main focus should be customer service and processing the calls with some sort of priority so you can be notified of emergencies and also set a block of your time aside to just work on possible bids. There are a lot of People claiming Social Security at 62 that can still work under 20 hours a week part time.

I worked for a company that hired a sales lady ... so she would be responsible for the proposals but she knew nothing about construction so they had me write the estimates and when i found out she was getting commission off my work ... i told them i either get half the commission or she can do her job. I ended up leaving the company for a much better postion.

He's buying equipment to make his men safer, maybe he could of went for 2 year old I don't know But the main thing is he's paying a sales rep a weekly salary, their fuel, and a percentage and she doesn't bring in the work needed to pay for her or the company she is putting her co workers and bosses families at risk with the debt that the company is taking for under bidding on projects with less money coming in putting stress on every one when there up tress with chainsaws. She's scared of millionaires but claims her and her father where entrepreneurs

At the 12:00 minute mark into this video, we like many others realized two things...1) Cody needs to be a lot better owner, boss, delegator, troubleshooter and make responsible, logical decisions about running his business, and...2) Jennifer the marketing, lead-generator, sales woman has been way overpaid for her dismal marketing and sales performance; she needs to be replaced with a go-getter who makes AT LEAST 1/2 of their monthly income from COMMISSIONS on closed deal, completed jobs! It is well worth it to find self-motivated sales people and dangle healthy commissions in front of them, they KNOW and UNDERSTAND that the harder and smarter they work, the bigger their pay will be, very similar to them automatically having the BUSINESS OWNER mentality that was mentioned. ; )

If she had all of those contacts, why wasn't she contacting them to bring in the sales? Why would she not have leverage that earlier

The one hard part about an open book business model is the rare employees that are actually driven enough to care, and can move the needle in your business will take all that value and trust given to them (with no risk) to take and start their own business.

I address this in the book coming up. This is a risk with out without open book management. The famous question is "what if you train them up and they leave?? What if you don't train them up and they stay??"

I'm in the trucking business, I have drivers that know exactly what "their" truck makes and what it costs to make that portion of my business's revenue. It's been a good motivator for almost every driver. The "slugs" don't stay around when their co workers are watching out for the company.
