@Jonathan Going Thanks Jonathan. That’s awesome. Always good to connect with another Indiana business owner. We actually got started after some of the storms that rolled through our area. There was a pretty noticeable increase in downed limbs, debris, damaged properties, and cleanup needs, so we decided to jump in and help fill that gap. We’ve been fortunate to build relationships with an insurance appraiser and a contractor that travel throughout the region, which has started generating leads and, thankfully, some paying jobs as well. Still early in the journey, but we’re learning a lot every week and working to build something that serves homeowners, realtors, investors, and property managers the right way. What type of work are you primarily focused on up your way?

@Jonathan Going Love that mindset, Jonathan. Most people wait until they have the perfect truck, trailer, machine, website, and everything else figured out before they start. You’re already out there creating opportunities and that’s what matters. We’re in a similar stage ourselves. We started with a truck, a trailer, and a willingness to solve problems. The equipment comes as the jobs come. Sounds like you’re closer than you think if the only thing standing between you and your first machine is landing a few jobs. Keep stacking conversations, estimates, and relationships. The machine is just a tool, but the ability to generate work is the real asset. Looking forward to following your progress. Being fellow Hoosiers, maybe our paths will cross on a project one day.
2wk Update.. I resigned from my W-2 😱
2nd Week Business Update! TL:DR Metrics Ad Spend $400.67 Leads total - 18 CPL - $30.12 Closed - 4 Sales - $8,300 🙏✨️ Potential Client of 40 Acres And my current client waiting for me to do the 1 Acre job before giving me his 9 acre property to do! Long story short, by the grace of God I quit my job today. I promised them I'll finish my 12 hr shift and I resigned. I love the people I worked with, I really do. But I love my family more and I had shifts that switched to days then evenings then back to days and it seemed very unstable for my family's schedule. Also I have made more money for my family in 2 weeks worth of business than a job has ever given me! The goal now is to reach capacity where I can focus on my next 3 steps: 1. Buy basic equipment (chain saw, cutter, chipper) + rent forestry mulcher 2. Work 4 days and have 1 day estimates / admin 3. Buy the forestry mulcher (Kubota + loftness) Ive been so dependent on the Lord these past 2 weeks of business because he has really showed me his Glory and his greatness time after time and I needed to see him work in this in my weakness, and as always he shows up! Praise the Lord oh My Soul! How did quitting your job go over when you jumped full time? And how was the change?

Congratulations, John. What stood out to me wasn’t the revenue, it was the fact that you were tracking the numbers. A lot of people spend money on marketing and never know their CPL, close rate, or customer acquisition cost. Wishing you continued success as you build capacity and scale. Looking forward to following the journey. 🙌🫡
Process wins!
Just wanted to share what following the process looks like! If people in here are on the fence about making this their full time job, I made the jump in early March to go full time into this. We had our first baby in October and my wife was very skeptical/nervous, dare I say excited, about the whole idea of me quitting. I have been bouncing between jobs about every 8-10 months, and this last job was 90k salary with killer benefits, but I was battling depression, low energy, and just wasn’t myself. I sat down with my wife, showed her my plan, and I went all in. In Austin’s starter scorecard I had a goal of my first 3 months going 10, 20, 30k in revenue. Currently, around 3 weeks into April I will hit 60k in revenue, which is 6 weeks ahead of my plan. Long story short, it works. I look in this group every day for motivation and I see some great people doing amazing things. Asking questions. Taking feedback. Moving forward. Generating results. @Austin Gray ’s community here is fantastic, and I can’t help but feel thankful and alive this Easter weekend! I feel that we are all hard nosed, hard working individuals, and I pray that we all find peace, success and something to pour our work ethic into! Big things coming in 2026 for this group!

This is inspiring to read. I’m still in the startup phase with our property cleanout and transition business here in Indiana, and one thing that stands out is how focused you were on the process instead of chasing shortcuts. The revenue numbers are impressive, but the fact that you were six weeks ahead of plan is what really caught my attention. Appreciate you sharing the real story behind it. Also congrats on your new baby, stay blessed!
$24k in First 2.5 Weeks of operation!
Hi All! Just wanted to update and wrap up my long saga on here for everyone. I know it's a lot to read through, but if you're in the position I was a few months ago, wondering if this is all possible, I hope you can find a little motivation in this to give it a try. - April 10th I took possession of my new CAT 275xe. I finally got out of the dealer at around Noon and drove straight to my first job. Risky not having ran it before, but you gotta learn somehow! - spent almost every week day in the machine on jobs up until today trying to get caught up on all the work I booked before even having the machine (thanks to facebook ads) - have just a couple jobs left with paid deposits, finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. - grabbed some good before/after pics and vids to start creating new content for updating socials and new ads - 5 5-Star Reviews achieved on new Google Business Profile and counting Since April 10th, I have completed and received payment on $23,875 worth of work with an average job ticket of $3,410. The rest of this week and next week will be spent finishing up the final 2 jobs with deposits which will be for $9,875 worth of work. I hope someone gets a little value out of all this to see what is possible. A month ago, I was working a $90k a year W2 behind a computer all day. Miserable. Now, I'm in woods all day tearing things up and enjoying life so much more and making a great living. While I don't plan to run this wide open all the time, it is nice to see what is possible if you truly wanted to grind away and make hay when you can. Just don't get burned out! I am posting before/after vids of one of my favorite jobs I completed on a random Tuesday, and the rewarding joy you can bring with this work. I did this job for a couple who had inherited this property from a passing parent. They wanted to build their retirement home on this property. Both husband and wife were in tears after seeing the finished property (in a good way!) He said "I haven't been able to walk this property like this since I was a 6 year old boy. If it was Friday, I'd pack the kids and tent up and we'd camp out here all weekend."

From “Where Do I Get Leads?” To $21,500 In Work In 30 Days
About a month ago, Jeff and his wife were golfing and he asked me a simple question: “Where the heck do I get these leads?” At that point, his land clearing business wasn’t doing much. No consistent revenue. No real lead engine. Just a guy with a machine who wanted to work. He joined Accelerator and starting showing up to the OPS Training calls on Saturday monrings He launched one simple Facebook ad, and started following the playbook. Here’s what’s happened in less than 30 days after joining: Current revenue booked: $21,500 Cash collected so far: $10,450 Backlog value: $13,500 New leads: 6 Quotes / site visits done: 6 Jobs sold: 4 (75% close rate) None of this is magic. Here’s what actually changed. He filmed the before/after Facebook ad and launched it. Not a cinematic masterpiece. Just a clear “before,” a clean “after,” and a simple offer for land clearing. He called every lead fast. 6 leads came in. He called all 6. No “I’ll call them tomorrow.” No letting them sit over the weekend. He booked fast site visits. 6 leads → 6 site visits on the calendar. He controlled what he could control: calls and appointments. You don’t need perfect sales training to win when you stack the basics like this. You need: A proven ad that actually gets land clearing leads. A rule for yourself: call leads fast and book the visit. A habit of showing up looking like the person who should get paid. Jeff did that for one month and turned “where do I get leads?” into $21,500 in work and a $13,500 backlog going into the busiest part of the season. If you already have a mulcher and you’re serious about growing this year, you’ve got two options: 1. keep trying to figure it out alone 2. Copy the proven playbook that Jeff used If you want our team to help you set up the ad and build the follow-up and scorecard so you’re not guessing, click here and book an OPS Game Plan call. We’ll map out your goals and see if what we have inside Accelerator is a good fit for you this season.

This is refreshing. I've run some ad campaigns on Google so far with minimal exposure, but I've spent about $20/day on a 5-day run. We got some leads but had to qualify them, and some weren't a good fit.
