I’m Scott, founder of The Backpack Handyman and owner/operator of a successful handyman business in Colorado. Over the years, I’ve learned that you don’t need a giant construction team, expensive trucks, or decades of experience to build a profitable local handyman business. My goal is to help everyday people create real income and freedom using practical skills, smart systems, and a backpack full of basic tools. Through this community, I’ll share the lessons I’ve learned building a service business, pricing jobs, finding customers, getting reviews, marketing locally, and creating repeat business without overcomplicating the process. Small, lean, local and 100k net annually is the goal here. Whether you’re starting from scratch, looking for a side hustle, or trying to turn handyman skills into a six-figure career, this community is designed to help you take action quickly and confidently. Join me as I build this community and let’s get out there and make it happen! As people come in and join, I would love to hear where you’re from and if you are currently a Handyman or if you are just getting started.
