Contractor plans for 2008

[Andy Collins]

Just to put a different spin on things, if people are reluctant to buy larger houses in the next year or so, thus increasing their mortgages, and stay where they are, then they may just wish to spend more money on the property and grounds that they already have, to make it more desirable when they do decide to sell.

Come to think of it thats very true, good point!

Nexy year should be a good year here, finance deals will be paid off, a major advertising campaign is planned and we have a large contract for a property developer that should come off fingers crossed. The trouble is with this job your selling yourself so unless you diversify big bucks will never be coming our way

Profit margin in sales 200% profit margins in tree surgery 10-20% ! Most do it because it's a life style and vocation and they couldn't imagine doing anything else.

What I mean to say is people will happily pay 600.00 for the latest LCD TV but when you give them a price to remove a tree for a similar ammount they are shocked.

It was the diversify bit that intrigued me?

[telhol]

Yeah do more than just trees rising electric and gas should mean more people are after wood burners cheap fuel.

 

sell logs / wood chips / bark / offer tree planting.

 

Who knows some big storms should be profitable lol
