@dig_it_starnes_: Its a good feeling when you put forth the effort to potentially secure a job like this and the customer takes notice of how you went above the norm#dozer #pond #landclearing #caterpillar #SmallBusiness #bluecollar
Terms and conditions contracts with a 25% deposit just to get on my schedule nonrefundable. Then I take three more 25% deposits at the job progresses unless it’s a one day job then it’s 50% deposit.

Get a program and make them sign to certain terms. It keeps it all on your phone and holds up in court

Do a written proposal, even if it's on a napkin an the local coffee shop,you need to protect you and the customer knows exactly what will happen 😉

I’m with you, after a wile you can read people and know if they are straight shooters. Anything over 5 grand I’ll write a contract

The main thing I think a deposit and signed contract helps with is cancelations. It sucks to have someone scheduled for 3-4 weeks to then find out

In exception of any government work, it’s all verbal for me, I have only been burned once for $1800. But land clearing, grading, ponds, septic.

Contract on anything, with scope listed and any exclusions. So they won’t keep saying while you’re here do this and try to hold it over your head.

Find a mentor, one of the big builders with good reputation with customers and subs. They should have good practices and advice. They may even offer you work
