for those of you who started your business part time
Jeff Robison replied to drod17's question in Residential Pressure Washing
I am part time and grossing over $200,000. Be persistent, find your market, work it hard. It will pay off. It took me almost 5 years to reach this number. Jeff Clean Up Atlanta -
I had a generator stolen off my trailer as it sat in my driveway during the day!! It was bolted down, nice neighborhood. It happened the same day my neighbor was getting some gutter work done. The contractor had all his tools on the back of his truck and was working at the back of the house. Came back around and it was gone. Jeff Robison Clean Up Atlanta, Inc. 678-360-2518

I own the crocs shoes and love them even though I feel gay wearing them around. They seem like they would be insanely hot. Jeff Robison

What do you consider a decent referral fee? Say I give a deck guy a lead that I do not want, or they give me a referral on a big commercial job. I am thinking 10% of the total job if they get it. Is this too low? Too high? Or just keep it a good gesture amongst friends in the industry and nothing gets exchanged? Jeff Robison Clean Up Atlanta 678-360-2518

I can't see any damage. The stuff is strong and more durable than any house. Just strong bleach, a good soap for cling, hot water and you are good to go. Jeff Robison Titan Exterior/Clean Up Atlanta 678-360-2518

I am interested to see how many hours behind a wand or surface cleaner people are putting in a week? Trust me I know about the thinking, mailing, marketing, and other hours. But how many actual pressure washing hours per week are some guys averaging a week? It may be employees or yourself. This was spurred by another How much per hour thread. Just curious.

I agree about the equipment. I have an 8 gpm machine, hose reels, great chems and there are not too houses that take two guys over an hour and a half from roll up to roll out. The price stays the same and hourly is well over $200.00. I also have a Swabby for flat work. 10x faster than normal surface cleaners. Typically I am well over $300.00/hr on bigger jobs, but we do everything faster than most companies can. This random price per hour stuff does not mean much, it is all on an individual company basis. I feel a company needs to work up total volume by any profitable means necessary and then purge the less profitable accounts. Jeff Robison Titan Exterior 678-360-2518

If that happens it will be ironic how the person that is never sick and rarely misses work will be sick 7 days a year. How about the small business man that is struggling to make his own ends meet while giving meaningful employment to people, I guarantee he or she won't be sick 7 days a year.

What did you do before becoming a Pw'er?
Jeff Robison replied to Beth n Rod's topic in Business Topics & Tips
Graduated from Arizona State in 1997. Still work full time as an operations manager for a medium sized flag manufacturing company. Started in 2003 to make a few extra bucks and have grown tremendously. Jeff Robison Titan Exterior/Clean up Atlanta 678-360-2518 -
Keith is the man. He does my flyers, post cards (for two separate businesses) he has been redoing my catalog at my other job as well. Never been disappointed. Jeff Robison Titan Exterior.

I get mine at ASAP or SunBrite, I think the price is about the same and cost is so small in the overall price of a job. I do like the program at SunBrite with, after the deposit on the container, you just swap them out. Jeff Robison Titan Exterior/Clean Up Atlanta 678-360-2518

I have thought about mace as well, I have seen some that comes in a bottle that attached to your leg. Kind of like Dog the Bounty Hunter. It would give you enough time to call 911 or grab a wrench and beat somebody with it. It would be visible so if anyone really approached you to start trouble you know they would have to be serious about it. I was very upset about a situation a couple of months ago in Atlanta as well in broad daylight. A very intimidating man approached me and wanted a couple bucks, told him to get a job and it escalated from there, basically grabbed the fire hydrant wrench and he walked away. But, it was scary none the less Jeff Robison Titan Exterior 678-360-2518

I am trying to broaden my horizons a little and looking into why products work the way they do on certain surfaces. I know basically what product to use in various situations, but want to know WHY they work. PH levels, Why concrete actually brightens, Why percarbonate works the way it does. Etc. Are there any starting points for this type of information. I am pretty familiar with chemistry. Can anybody help? Jeff Robison Titan Exterior 678-360-2518

most costly mistake doing residential
Jeff Robison replied to SQUEEKY's question in Residential Pressure Washing
I put a surface cleaner to a stone walkway that had been coated with a sealer. Multi million dollar home, he wanted to keep the walkway looking perfect. It tore the stuff right off the surface. He told me on a later cleaning that it was $250.00 to fix, but did not make me pay for it. I had done a couple of other things that day and just told him not to worry about it. I am at his house every 6 months for a cleaning of something. Jeff Robison Titan Exterior 678-360-2518
