I put up a thread last week about the ease and safetyof WFP work attracting a lot of new people to the trade, and how we are kind of in a golden age right now when only window cleaners are familiar with the new technology. I think that the increased competition will put downward pressure on prices.
Well it happened three times this week. The meter reader guy, the moving man, and a carpenters helper all saw me working and all said almost the same thing. (sic) "man that looks easy, I bet theres money in that!!".... When I see guys working now I go work the other side if possible. Albeit I m working with $3,000 worth of equipment but It could be done almost as well for 600.
So maybe Im Davey Downer but I see a real free for all in a couple off years. To be succesfull in buisness you ve got to be able to connect with people, and have the inner ethic to do the best by your customer at all times,
I d did a house today that 5 years ago, would have been a giant dangerous 5 hour nightmare. It was 2 hours of chocolate cake with creme filling and strawberrys on top. Workmen used to see me on the ladders reaching way over yonder for the upper corners and think " I aint doin that" now they see me rinsing withh cool water on a summer day and go "I could do that, what am I working for this butthead for??"
Happy labor day enjoy
