Two things that are changing how small home service businesses grow
Hey everyone, Yash here. We're already working with Tim at Handy's, and he invited me in. 1. Marketing engineering, not a marketing agency Instead of paying an agency for posts and reports, we build the machine that brings in jobs: - A website and SEO pages that rank in every town you serve - Google and Meta ads that bring your cost per booked job below what you pay on LSA - Your Google Business Profile and reviews running on autopilot - An AI receptionist that answers every call and books the job 2. VAs in Asia for everything except the tech work Calls, scheduling, dispatch, follow-ups, invoicing, admin. Trained VAs backed by AI do it for a fraction of a US hire, and do it consistently. See what we built for Handy's (click around, call the receptionist): 👉 https://salesup.club/ai-growth-report/for/handys-demo-s8k2/?src=skool Want one for your business? Reply here or DM me with your website and I'll send you a free report: your site, your Google Maps ranking, what you pay per job on LSA today, and where the gaps are. Or block 30 minutes with me: https://cal.com/yash-salesup/30-mins

Excited to have your knowledge and skills part of this group @Yash Chowdhury !!
Hiring Virtual Assistants
Part of my commitment that I have shared is to partner with great people, to bring great solutions to our industry. If I can use this community as leverage and overall buying power to negotiate better rates for all of us, that will in turn help the industry grow in the right direction. Leverage and Buying power are a big part of why this group exists. One of the most common requests I get asked is about our VAs. We have two full time VA's that cost us between $8-$12/hr and are more often than not better than our in state admin employees. If you have been looking for a VA, connect with me and I'll make sure you to get you in touch with the right resources. Best,

Website / Mobile App Refresh
Handy's has had a long standing partner for our website since we started. As times change into a more AI focused environment we realized we need as many ways to stay in front of customers as possible. We are currently in the onboarding phase with SalesUp and they've been kind enough to offer a discount for all of the Handyman Business Academy members. I have also asked that he do a FREE report of your business and its online health. If you're interested comment or DM me. I have added Yash to the group so he can communicate with you all directly as well! Feel free to click through the Demo that they created for Handy's, and you can book a time to meet with their team directly from the link! https://salesup.club/ai-growth-report/for/handyman-growth-t8k3/

If you’re stuck
Studies show that having the humility to share your struggles and stuck points will dramatically increase your ability to problem solve and shorten the timeframe from idea to execution The likelihood of someone in this group having gone through what you’re going through is very high! Here to help, always. Don’t be afraid to share

@Kevin Parkins hey Kevin, one major component is to determine how long these projects will take you and make sure to do phased payments. 50% up front to cover materials plus your first week or so. 25% 15% then 10% after completion so you are never going without pay. The other option depending on licensing is to use sub contractors and build a great trustworthy database where you can flip leads for referral fees

@Kevin Parkins another great way to do this is use AI. Determine the days to completion, break it down into phases based on how many ppl you’ll have. Then have it determine when you’ll need materials, what needs to be done each day to be “on track” and use that as your calendar
