@Jacob_Naviaux @cashrulesNC We already have a shortage in the trades. Not enough of the younger generation are entering the trades. A lot of boomers in the trades will be retiring soon.

Prices will only go up from here for the foreseeable future.

@TonyLangton1 @BeardedTesla Supercruise is good at setting speed. Quite awful compared to FSD though.

I have Tesla with FSD and GMC Sierra EV with SuperCruise. GM is light years behind Tesla in Self Driving tech. Supposedly GM is working on their next platform Ultra Cruise. Curious to see how good it is.

@markfzhuk I’d be interested in talking to you about some ads for my remodeling business

@AlexForbesOps Looks great thank you! Can’t wait to see the finished yard!

@JazzDeeApple @digitalspaz Haven’t figured out how to change the oil on my EV yet. Oh well, guess I’ll keep driving until oil light comes on.

@Liathetrader That's a great week, but ain't nothin' compared to the $15 I made last week taking 400 trades with zero edge, haha.

@BrianEastwoodx @Jam3sRyanTaylor If you're willing to grind you butt off it can be worth it. Been working 7 days a week for last 4 years. A lot of times 12+ hour days. But the grind has paid off. $1.5M last year and growing.

@N8RealEstate I’m a GC in Denver market. I never hear from my subs, they just show up when I need them for a project. Now they are calling me constantly (tile, countertops, painters, carpenters) looking for work. Things definitely slowing down in our market.

[Mike Baca @mikepbaca]

@16dubs Just out of curiosity why even do painting? Not sure what services you offer with SEO biz, but websites, marketing, SEO, branding, seem more profitable and aren’t limited to a single geographical location. Just curious?

[Mike Baca @mikepbaca]

@JoshInEncinitas I’m a general contractor. This is the worst when a sub wants to schedule for a probable day. Quick way to not get called back for work again.

@tradeschoolpro Where did you get that 500,000 figure from?

[Mike Baca @mikepbaca]

@rashiumapathi @remotecleanguy Sounds like you know what you’re doing, marketing wise. I’m a service biz owner I don’t know marketing. What’s your fee to teach me?

[Mike Baca @mikepbaca]

@tannerdripjobs This is the way! What software do you use for scheduling/communication with customers?

@Jacob_Naviaux @martymc10482341 Full time guy might not be a bad idea. What type of investing do you do, fix and flip, rentals?

[Mike Baca @mikepbaca]

@Jacob_Naviaux @martymc10482341 My handymen are full time employees. $30 to $33/hr plus company vehicles and benefits.

We bill at $95/hr

@Jacob_Naviaux @martymc10482341 I’m a general contractor but we have a handyman division as well. The handyman side feeds into the larger projects plus provides “fill in” work.
