Just wrapped this week’s Accelerator call. Couple big wins: @Ryan Hollis is crankin’ – booked out 8 weeks, made his first equipment‑operator hire, and is getting off the machine and into sales/PM mode. Pulled $53k this month… I’m betting he blows past his $500k goal @Colby McArthur leveled up (again) – bought new iron (KX-040) and hired a Project Manager so he can stay locked in on quoting and closing. My money’s on him crossing $1M this year @Chris Vangsnes smashed 30 acres for $58k and captured some killer footage on the job Snow’s gone here in CO and we’re back to full-send season with a new 3‑man crew starting next week. Your turn: What’s ONE win from your week? Big or small, drop it in the comments so we can stack ’em up 🔥

Do you guys price these out and still use your regular skidsteer. Since im still in the renting equipment phase, should I buy a smaller mulcher for these types of jobs? Or skip them entirely. Thanks. 🙏

Hi everybody. My name is Bryan and I am starting a Land clearing business with my brother. I am more the admin side and he is operating side but I need experience operating when we scale or my brother can’t operate. My brother won’t be fully retired from the military until Nov 2027 so he is only available part time. I don’t want to wait launching the company because of how fast this niche business is growing. Is they’re a better option other than renting a machine and mulcher head to get some hours in?

NOTE: I just updated these numbers. I was looking at the past 30 days, these numbers are now for the life of the campaign, started 2/12 Ok! So things are going gangbusters and the season is off to a fabulous start here. I started running my new ad campaign mid-February while we still had a lot of snow on the ground. Things were a bit slow to start but as soon as the snow started melting I've been getting multiple leads a day. Here's some stats for the campaign so far: Daily ad budget: $50 Amount spent so far: $1995 Impressions: 125,858 Reach: 56,091 Cost per lead (CPR): $16.36 Leads generated: 122 Leads qualified for estimate appts: 75 (22 of these appts are upcoming) Estimates converted to jobs so far: 17 Gross revenue from booked jobs: $51,575 Estimates that seem likely to convert later in the year: 11 Estimate appointments that did not convert: 8 "No contact" Leads: 17 (leads that I could never get on the phone despite 10+ contact attempts) Over all rate of estimate appts converting to booked jobs: 68% (Last 2 years this was around 50%) Personal observations: - I called every lead 10 minutes that came in during business hours. Maaaybe 5% of these actually answered the phone call. I left a voicemail and followed up with a text message right away. - Average number of contact attempts (calls/voicemails/texts) per lead converted to job: 2.69 (range was 2-10)

1. Hi, my name is Justin Sparks. 2. Im in the DFW area in Texas. I’d like to start a forestry mulching/ land clearing business to get away from my W-2 and provide a better life for my wife and 2 month old daughter. 3. I’m a USMC veteran, my skills are leadership, hardworking, and determination. 4. Currently I don’t have any revenue because I’ll be starting from zero. 5. What’s stopping me now is just knowledge. I don’t know the first thing to making an ad, quoting jobs, or anything to do with owning a business. With that being said, I’m here to learn and soak up as much as I can to get started. If there is anyone here with tips on the best VERY FIRST things that need to get done that would help a lot. Thank you to everyone here!
