There is not to many people in the tree industry that really go out of there way to help people so thank you

Read the tree workers manual, took a week long ojt , doing trims and takedowns, started my tree/stump business right away. 30 yrs later, still going strong. Don't mess around, just do it.

Mike Sokolow good advice

Bro I got respect for you. I'm barely starting out and it shows you take all this serious. May God prosper your endeavors

Working with trees is tough. The thought of starting a business is tougher. I'm gonna take the leap because of excellent videos like yours. Good job Joe!

Very nice, going to be a few years before trying to go at it on my own, as I take on more sidework though, learning just how tough it is. Very much appreciate all the info, and the amount of time you put into making this video. Cheers

Being your own boss has a lot of benefits but its also a lot of hassle. I just wanted to help out anyone who was thinking about taking that step by giving some tips. I enjoy watching your videos. Just make sure you take your time when working. Not being a critic at all just don't want to see ya get hurt. I learned so much from that Jerry Beranek dvd series. You should check it out if you haven't seen it. It helped me a lot!

Nice Vid. I really appreciate the candor, honest, and open view for upstarts. Not just telling everyone to jump into tons of debt for instance... Thanks again man!

Love wesspur since I only live a few hours away from them, shipping is always quick. I also just started a company and this was great information, thank you.

Wow bro really great video I just cut my first tree down today for a friend in a backyard in Brooklyn and I watched the KZread video last night and I had zero problems today and I even learned a few things I like how you went to everything in your video I have a DJ business and all of the things you spoke about apply to basically any entrepreneurial business and I thought it was very well done God bless you and I wish you a lifetime of success and safety

Spot on bud, my wife and I did a lot of the same when we started our service, some of them though we figured out the hard way, from under bidding to taking on too big a job to learning the benefit of subcontracting and being a subcontractor,I did get my first climb kit from Wesspur too, the kit discount plus being able to customize it and hands on customer service was hard to beat. Great video again

Nice video. Applies to many occupations across the small business spectrum in the outdoor crafts.

Another thing read books or listen to audiobooks on multi-level sales techniques. Very valuable. Words can make the sale or lose the sale. When they are a go stop talking and leave. Then come back do the job and get paid. And don't be cheap on services provided. Always give a bit over the top. It pays down the road big time.

All really awesome points! I can relate and agree with all of them!! Very cool video!! Well done!

I'm also in Akron Ohio. Haven't heard of ACRT gonna have to check it out .

Thanks Joe- Every part of this video is what I needed to hear. I'm working on the side (just the easy, no-cleanup jobs for folks I know) and until now-a handshake was my contract. I realize this is stupid, but the leap to insurance and contracts/LLC, etc just seems like a giant hurdle that's hard to overcome or justify while working another job. If you ever want to tackle a video like that which would explain the finer details of contracts, LLC process, insurance- there would probably be a lot of guys in your debt for the effort. Thanks a million and God Bless you and your family.

Hi Joe. I enjoyed your video, you covered a lot of great points for anyone starting any kind of service related business.

Wishing you all the best in your business and hope your baby is well.

Nice video. Really like the swimming in the money and spam can! The sena communication makes working in the trees alot safer and better. I believe alot of people are worried about starting a business because they don't have everything figured out. After 8 years running a business I still haven't figured out everything. My goal everyday is to continue learning and improving. Jerry's dvds are good and also ISA has online courses that are great. A little expensive, but worth it. Just my 1 cents.

Tip 1, invest heavily in equipment as decent employees are hard to find, especially skilled climbers. Lifts are gonna make them obsolete in a decade in most areas

Hello, how much should a climber make per hour if he is starting and when he has a lot of experience?

I’m 20, and I look a little young for my age, but so far I have been treated with respect and seriousness from every customer I’ve ever dealt with. I am very articulate, professional, and act older than I am. I can’t say the same from others in the industry, i have had to earn respect the hard way. But keep in mind at 17 it’ll be tough for various reasons, registering a business in some states isn’t legal til 18, renting equipment or getting crane crews is a no go til you’re 18, and obviously if you apply for a loan or driving a work vehicle is a no til you’re 18 as well. That’s in my state, so you’ll have to check your state laws. Good luck with it, it’s a very stressful and expensive start up, but it smoothes out and pretty soon it’s the greatest thing you could hope for

You lost me at the insurance policy. Maybe when you actually have any kind of assets or money to take... But otherwise, you're forking over for something that you shouldn't be using to begin with, and if you do have to use it, it's no easier than forcing the client to take you to court. You're still going to shit on your own business if you break something. Point number one SHOULD have been, "Don't take jobs you can't handle"
