    You've got a profession tax attorney on your side. Way better than many businesses, myself included. I'll be interested to learn what I can from what you learn.

    Who Underbid Me? .... and by How Much? .... Do I have the Job?

    That's a good disposal location situation. You can set up for power unloading, I'd imagine. People with livestock and horses, farms and the like often want chips. Brian, that's a good new web address. The old web suffix (.in) instead of (.com) baffles some people. If I tell them to go to...

    You might need a better deflector on the discharge chute, and a better enclosure on your bed, Kyle. Got a picture? Last three jobs, I chipped onsite. They were happy to have the mulch. One before that was a decent removal and prune on a postage stamp sized lot, so I hauled it one mile away...

    Safely home! Can you stage brush and rent a chipper? Hauling that much brush sucks. How is your time estimate looking?

    Who Underbid Me? .... and by How Much? .... Do I have the Job?

    Looks like you can dump tops into the road. Don't worry to much about breaking branches. Anything that can be felled or free-dropped, do it. Sometimes figuring the right sequence of operations makes or breaks the job. Maybe clearing out some trees, and accurately measuring will make room...

    Can you hang big tops in neighboring trees, tip-tied? Not sure how close they are. If you top one, you can swing into the adjacent ones, rigging to first spar. Bigger tops than you'd negative rig.

    Seems kinda like that one letter LMNOP. The decabet. Metric alphabet. Licensedinsuredandbonded. Just some sound bite in your brain.

    Who Underbid Me? .... and by How Much? .... Do I have the Job?

    I'm legally required to be bonded. 12K bond for a general contractor, $6K bond for a Specialty Contractor. I rarely bring inventory (cable and brace supplies, mostly) to a job. If I had to plant $5000 worth of trees (wholesale), I'm going to take money for the trees. I get paid upon...

    Part of your job as the sales person to show them value in properly done tree work, and the protection to them of you being LIB, legitimately.

    Looking back at the first page, or whatever, $1000 each is way high for those trees.

    If you have the time, track your inputs and outputs. That will help a lot. Its hard to bid.

    Who Underbid Me? .... and by How Much? .... Do I have the Job?

    What's your approach going to be, Denver? A 60' self-propelled lift and a heavy mini-excavator would put a hurt on those trees quickly, if not fell-able.

    You are there to close the job, not make a social call (I've heard it put, maybe by Mick). You don't have to try to Close the job, but nudging is good. Sometimes someone who isn't nudged lets the whole project go by the wayside, but if they decide to say yes, and schedule, you're more "in"...

    "Do you know the timeframe on making your decision? " Easy question. "I'll be contacting the winning contractor by next Friday, most likely" Easy answer. "Sounds good. Right now, we have an appointment available, in a week and a half/ scheduling out about two weeks/ etc" Easy way to bring...
