    I think the LA's will be looking to use smaller companies rather than the large ones, smaller firms with less overheads will be able to under-cut the larger ones. The LA have already been told to spread the work around down this way. Smaller firms will also be able to diversefy(sp) into things like garden matinence, log sales, even subbing a lot easier than larger firms.

    your website indicates that you already offer tree work, you must have some idea!

    Is this not how most traniees get into tree work to begin with? If an employer can see potential for you to make them money, then yes they will provide the time, effort and money into training you. No one is just going to call you up and give you a job, get yourself out there and make yourself known. Get a CV together and send it to every company you can, with a covering letter selling yourself and what you are looking for. Give it a week or 2 then call them and ask if they have recieved it. You need to make them think that they need you, not the other way round! Good luck

    Never burn your bridges! Keep in contact with people you have subbied/worked for in the past, you never know when they/you will need a hand on big jobs. I get quite a lot of work for the company I work for now just through a good rep I had as a subbie.
  18. Stuart A-C
    I just find working harder keeps me from getting cold, None of this neobaselayerthremaltomfoolery! But a good pair of socks keeps the toes from going blue!
