@hustlersnthehood: AJ Howard was 13 when he started knocking on doors in Duncanville, Texas asking people if he could clean their trash cans. Day one he got one job. Eighteen dollars and a two dollar tip. He filmed himself holding it and said he was $980 away from his goal. He hit the $1,000 in nine days. By day 24 he had $3,022, and that number went up right after school let out, because he booked a double for the afternoon of his first day back. He told everybody the money from those three weeks bought his back to school clothes. Over 100 cans in the first month. When the online push slowed down he started putting flyers on cans right after pickup day, when folks are looking at them and thinking about the smell. His pops cleans gutters with him. On his first big power washing job, a $1.3 million house, the property had no running water, so he called his grandpa and used his trailer with the tank and the generator. One Sunday, his day off, a job got rained out the day before. He went back and finished it. It's not a summer thing anymore. AJ's Fresh Start Services takes bookings across Duncanville, Cedar Hill, DeSoto and Grand Prairie. @ajfreshstartservices #HustlersNTheHood
