First Video Ad. Let me have it Gang!
Alright, first things first, I should have born Amish. I’m the least tech savvy 30 year old there is. That being said, I was able to play with CapCut for my first edit. This is my first video ad I’ll be posting. I’ve only posted photos for ads previously. While I had luck with them, I’m hoping a video will be as successful as others say vs using stills. Let me know what you guys think. ALL CRITICISM WELCOME. Don’t be soft of me, I want this to succeed!

nice! what do your ad metrics look like so far? spending to leads to visits to closes type stuff? to the sunglasses comment... doesn't bother me. i can see your eyes looking down but i get the gist of what youre trying to convey and i don't want a movie star showing up to clean my stuff up so i don't care. few people have the gumption to video themselves face on, its why it works better than everything else. Keep up the effort! make more videos. even if its just from the truck on site visits. people buy from people, be you. i have no idea what the gif is doing, it was the first hit on amish.
Job market?
Does anyone else worry about competition? I keep getting doubtful every time I see another "land clearing" and "dirt work" outfit in my area. (Haven't started advertising yet because of prior commitments, but will lock in my liability insurance and commercial auto for my one ton in a month.) Any advice? Having to wait another month.

@Chaz Moore as a 41 almost 42 year old I'm relieved by that quote! hah. Agree with your post. Its a big ass world even if there's competition in your neck of the woods. Be better. Don't be cheaper. Sell value. Do valuable work. get the review and reference. repeat. print money.
My first job
I recently completed my first project, and I’m looking for some guidance on how to handle the situation professionally. The original scope of the job was estimated to take approximately five days. However, the client expressed that they did not have the budget to support the full project, so we agreed to scale the work down to fit within a two-day timeframe. I completed as much of the project as possible within those agreed constraints. Since then, the client has expressed dissatisfaction, feeling that the amount of work completed does not match the cost. From my perspective, the work performed was consistent with the reduced timeline and agreed-upon scope. How would you recommend handling a situation like this in a professional manner, while maintaining a good client relationship and setting clear expectations moving forward?

YMMV - If you need the cash, draw lines on a map or marked on trees for what they desired, negotiate as you can if unreasonable, collect the left over payment then clear to the lines. Document all that with photos. If you moved the equipment try to charge a mobilization fee to put it back on the property.
Plumbing case drain
Can anyone out there tell me if my plan will work? So I have a John Deere 317g and I want to install a case drain. Can I connect to the hydraulic drain hose?

YouTube and forums would be a decent start here. I’ve read about doing this but never pulled the trigger on my machines.
2 maybe 3 quotes tonight/this weekend
One fb marketplace post I boosted for three days got me 7 messages and a few quotes. Wish me luck I’m nervous.
