Just started my landscaping business almost 5 months ago. I’m working it alongside a full-time job and am working on making it my primary source of income. I’m newly married and have a kid on the way, which is what motivates me. Your videos are awesome education and show me it is possible to be successful in this business. Thanks Keith for what you do!

Yo Keith, nice job Boss. Don’t listen to the trolls. Most of these guys are showing up to the job site in their 97 Corolla with saws in the trunk and then asking customer to borrow an extension ladder. Cheaper is not always better. You get what you pay for. Keep pushing forward my friend.

That was a Jensen chipper. It blew up the 6th job. The blades broke inside during use and projected 20 feet.

Can we please keep this trend of charging more for our work?! We need to collectively raise prices to an amount where we all make a profit. If you think his price was too much, you're selling yourself short.

I wish that tree could have been transplated instead of being destroyed. So sad to see that poor beautiful heathy tree being cut up and step on like that 1:45 and end up at the dump. If I was there I would have rescued it, poor baby.

@BennyChains88 Ай бұрын

850?! Damn. I hope that homeowner received quotes from multiple companies, and thought you had the cheaper quote. Here in South Florida, I recently spoke with a tree removal company that said they would charge me $900 to remove TWO hickory trees, remove one of the stumps, grind the other stump, AND remove all of the debris.

@keith-kalfas Ай бұрын

It's not really $850 in 40min. It's just a catchy title and thumbnail there's a lot more expenses that go into it.

Hey Keith, the comment section here is a reminder that probably the last thing the world will run out of is critics. It doesn’t matter how competently the job was done, or what was charged for it, the green-eyed monsters are always waiting to pounce on the man in the arena.

@cleancutslawncare Ай бұрын

There are a ton of variables. Tools cost a ton, trucks, trailers, repairs, fuel, insurance etc. you have to make excellent profit on EVERY job just to stay profitable overall. The expenses of a small business can be huge. I’m smaller than him and my business burns through money. Plus he needs a paycheck don’t he? That $850 isn’t his to keep. A lot goes to the business. @@markbrown2296

Don't customers get pissed off when they see these guys bragging about how much money they made off of them for such little work? Fast easy money, and the client is just a sucker?

@keith-kalfas Ай бұрын

I actually dont feel this way at all. And the only reason I named and titles the video and thumbnail this way is because its proven when you give specific results and specific dollars in specific amounts of time... then it increases the click through rates. For me I'm way more excited about marketing than making a few hundred bucks off a tree. But I have several tree guys DM me and brag to me about how they make so much money. Haha. Good for them.

@KingWreakHavoc Ай бұрын

I don’t think he’s bragging, I think it helps for guys like myself who run a small landscaping company to understand what the market looks like and to price things properly, thanks Keith!
