Guy at the supply house told me to stop chasing big remodel jobs and go after 40 small ones, and he was right
Six months ago a guy named Ray who has been selling roofing materials for 30 years told me my problem was I kept bidding on big full replacement jobs where I was one of eight bids. He said go find 40 small repair jobs a month instead, gutters, flashing, a few shingles, and stop swinging for the fences. I ignored him for two months because it felt like stepping backwards. Then I finally caved last March and put a $150 flat rate on small leaks and gutter tune ups. I booked 44 of them that first month and cleared $6,600, which beat my best month on a single big job after I paid two guys and rented a dumpster. Ray was right and I hate how right he was. Any of you ever have an old timer hand you advice that sounded like a downgrade but actually paid better?
