I worked for the company for a few years as a hauler and a manager, I loved Casey's growth mindset and I always appreciated that he knew when to pause and improve what he already has going on then proceed to grow the company. Very proud to be a former SUG.

[@SweatVenture]

That's awesome. Just curious what you are doing now?

[@TylerGrant-k3r]

@@SweatVenture I work for a small business solution software company in sales. I truly believe the only reason I got the job was because of my experience as a SUG.

[@RandyMarshUSA]

Really appreciate the new format guys. Keep these types of interviews coming!

[@SweatVenture]

Thanks for the feedback. We have plenty more interviews like this coming. Stay tuned...

Casey is LEGIT

[@clutterreductionjunkremoval]

Casey stood out to me at a convention we attended. I like his mindset and the way he focuses on the right things. Lots to learn from him!

[@SweatVenture]

Casey is already successful, but his potential his huge. Can't wait to see where he is in ten years.

[@clutterreductionjunkremoval]

@@SweatVenture absolutely. The fact that he's so willing to open a new franchise because an employee wants to grow speaks volumes alone

[@rahmetovedil]

Casey is truly an amazing person and inspiration. I had the opportunity to meet him in person. He has helped me a lot with my junk removal business. Great video!

[@SweatVenture]

That's awesome. Thanks for watching.

[@TropTrevTv]

Great video man !! Lots of great info Congrats to Casey on his business he’s very meticulous in his business and doesn’t cut corners, I love how he thought out the trucks having versatility and the branding, coming from a creator aspect. I did a lot of moving before and sometimes huge offices with 2 box trucks full, and loved the dumps, or even customers who moved that had hella new nice stuff, I hope to see a good market out here and start up some dumping, I didn’t search this either it just popped up so good stuff on the algorithm too bro. 🔥

[@SweatVenture]

Thanks for watching, Trev. What are you doing now?

[@juliaseduction4387]

I like how this business has fun and does creative videos

[@SweatVenture]

That's one of the reasons we interviewed Casey. His energy was great. One of the best leaders/managers I've ever seen.

[@dh6984]

just a tip, at 14:11, back in or better yet, just stay in the street. Backing out into the street is more dangerous and kids can get behind you. You can better survey the area as you're pulling up and then back in. It's not like it's a 1/4 mile driveway, so you're really not saving enough time to justify being in the driveway. I drove for UPS for over 20 years and I always stayed out of driveways. Your vehicle could be leaking oil, weight of vehicle could cause or worsen a crack, or bumper can scrape.

[@RandyMarshUSA]

Good idea. Just curious what you’re doing now since you stopped ups?

[@vyacheslavkuchinsky145]

[@SweatVenture]

I would reach out to Casey via his website: standupguys.biz/contact-us/

[@heatncool]

7 million in sales... Did you mention 10 plus locations and all those states ? It's showing one small shop with few vans, that's not realistic just so yall know. Also those locations , were they all started from scratch or did you purchase revenue ?

[@rjsimpkins2911]

1st thing I see on your website, is that you donate 60% of couches you picked up. Even Goodwill doesn't like couches so who do you donate to?. What do you do with the the other 40%? Thanks!

[@SweatVenture]

I'm not sure where exactly Casey donates, but, besides Goodwill, junk removal companies can donate to Habitat for Humanity ReStores, the Salvation Army, and various thrift stores.

[@rjsimpkins2911]

@@SweatVenture I've looked for furniture at those stores and they don't carry that volume of inventory and that's why I was curious. Thanks!

[@perryschwartz7099]

Do you use an answering service to take all incoming calls? Who does your dispatching?

[@caseywalsh4177]

Started out by answering the phone myself. Than managers helped. Eventually hired full time person to answer calls only, that cascaded into multiple full time CSRs.

Yeah, he's growing an empire for sure.

[@bigdaddyhebrew5793]

So if I go onto someone’s property and break my arm the home owner has to pay for my medical bills

[@SweatVenture]

Ideally, the junk removal company should have workers' comp insurance to cover the employee's medical expenses, but in some cases the homeowner MIGHT be liable if there was some sort of negligence on their part. For example, if the homeowner hid some sort of hazard that causes the injury. That being said, I am not an attorney so it's always best to consult a professional for questions like this.

[@PaulVid]

Great insight!

[@SweatVenture]

Thanks for watching, Paul!

[@thomasqvarnstrom3404]

What type of truck do I need to get started?

[@SweatVenture]

Casey touched on this already, but to get started, any truck will do really. Anything that can transport junk. That being said, you might want to consider an affordable trailer if you have a pickup truck. Once your business grows, maybe consider the Isuzu truck and dump attachments that he mentions. Good luck!

[@brad-u3l]

How many trucks do you need to arrive there ?

[@SweatVenture]

Are you asking how many trucks does a junk removal business need? If so, you can start with just 1 and work your way up to as many as you can afford.

[@ryansmith6900]

How can I get money to start a junk biz?

[@RandyMarshUSA]

With a business like this I think it’s ideal to start small with a simple truck and trailer and slowly build up enough savings to get bigger and bigger. Basically bootstrap it like Casey did.

[@SweatVenture]

I would have to agree

[@jasoncornett7948]

What CRM do you use?

[@SweatVenture]

I'm not sure what CRM he uses. You'll have to ask him.

[@Editnamehere]

Keep going with the videos but I would look into asking more important questions. Lots of fluffy questions.

[@SweatVenture]

Thanks for the feedback. Can you give me 1-2 examples of questions that you would have liked to see in this particular interview?

[@Editnamehere]

@@SweatVenture maybe some more business metrics questions such as customer acquisition cost, CLTV, lead cost conversion rate. Different marketing medias they use pros and cons of each example: google vs Bing vs FB. Break even points and how they are able to be profitable at the business cash flow level while scaling.

[@SweatVenture]

Thanks, these are excellent suggestions, and we will start incorporating questions like this. I think we started with pretty basic questions, because our channel was fairly new and it was likely they wouldn't be comfortable sharing such detailed information. But, now we will.
