10 years ago, when I used to do the $49 WHS, I did double that some years. Averaged about 8 jobs a day in the warm weather and still 4 per day in most of the cold weather, except January and February.Usually ended up with 1600 to 1800 when the year was done. Steamer must be pretty close to my old numbers with the jobs he does most days.

Jtuseo...........I think the name of the game is to do the least amount of jobs per year @ a decent profitable charge.

I would rather do 200 jobs and make the same money as 900.

But..........WHAT DO I KNOW.

Yes, with one truck. I used to advertise that special in my YP add as well as the weekly papers. Averaged at least a dozen calls per day. Most I did myself, and gave the rest to my employees to do.

Jack is right, it is much better to do less, and make more. Try to keep busy with 2 jobs a day but charge more and make as much as you can from each.
