FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing is kinda flexible for me cause no two jobs are the same!! The main purpose here is to make a fair wage so that I'm happy and the customer is happy!! This makes for a good relationship and continuous employment! I try to figure the cost of my equipment and my time to evaluate each job and put myself in the customers shoes!
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I ask him/ her what they want done and try to focus on that! With time and as I get to know the customer better I may make suggestions. Normally, I try to let the customer tell me what to do cause sometimes I learn from them! There's always more than one way to do something and many people want things done there way!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm kinda new to the green industry! On the other hand, I have been taking care of my own property for many years! I went to college and took a few courses in the green industry, but did not major in any! I started my work career building piers, fences,decks, and eventually full home remodeling. That grew into a small construction company which I still am involved with! I always loved having a garden each year and making improvements to my property so it only made sense to get into the lawn care racket! The next thing you know, I got my own trailer and equipment and here I am!!
