  • These guys inspire with story!!

    Thank you both for such engaging and encouraging conversations with “guys like me” - Christian men wanting to give their community the best of themselves while taking control of their work situation for the good. I’ve listened to almost half of the episodes and feel increasingly equipped to take the first steps towards my own small jobs profession. Thank you for providing hope and a path forward.

  • Great Show!

    I love listening to this show! The back and forth with real people is a pleasure to listen to. I’m starting up my handyman business so to be able to tune in a listen to many different experiences from several service pro’s is a real treat. My only complaint is I wish they were longer and published more frequently!

    Keep up the good work!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#70 CMC Home Repairs (Part 1)
Q: What marketing steps helped you grow after going part-time to full-time?
Starting with Angie's List and then expanding to Google business profile, collecting five-star reviews, and later partnering with a marketing service to build a proper website; referrals remained a core driver, supplemented by a more structured online presence.
#70 CMC Home Repairs (Part 1)
Q: How did you approach pricing and estimating in the early days, and how has that evolved?
Initial estimates used a mix of a rough hourly rate and some template-based practices; over time, the pricing shifted to flat-rate projects with an hourly cap for unexpected rot and remediation work, guided by the accountant's insights into true costs and margins.
#70 CMC Home Repairs (Part 1)
Q: Was there any science or planning behind going full-time, and how did you decide when the right time was?
The decision was driven by a gradual realization that the current job was constraining growth and personal satisfaction; it involved family considerations, financial readiness, and a strong sense that the handyman work could sustain the family once certain milestones (like savings and client flow) were met.
#68 Rogue River Handyman (Part 1)
Q: What was your first step after deciding to pursue handyman work full time or part time?
Tim explains that getting insurance, forming an LLC, and establishing a basic business framework were the initial steps, followed by practical outreach like door-to-door introductions to generate early jobs.
#67 Steady Home Maintenance (Part 2)
Q: What has your experience been like rolling out a subscription-based maintenance service, and what works or doesn't work?
Initial attempts tried a quarterly visit model and a fully done-for-you maintenance program, but they didn't align well with customer expectations or profitability. The model evolved into a membership with discounts, priority scheduling, and annual evaluations, with ongoing experiments to adjust entry price points and touchpoints to drive home visits and recurring revenue.
