1. Find customer. Asking people if they need trees topped while they're at the ATM works well, you already know they have money.
2. Shmooze customer/bid job. (High enough to make a profit, low enough to get the job)
3. Tie rope to tree. Knowing lots of cool different knots makes you look like you know what you're doing.
4. Say a prayer. God favors drunks and idiots, so if you drink a couple beers before the prayer, it helps.
5. Cut tree. Make sure your notch faces where you want the tree to go. Thats it. Trees never go anywhere but where the notch faces.
6. Make a few cuts to reduce the tree. This helps give the customer confidence that you can clean up the mess you made.
7. Talk on your phone for a minute, then say you've gotta go, family emergency. Oh, could I get full payment now, and I'll come back tomorrow to finish the cleanup?
8. Laugh all the way to the bank. Treework is nothing but gold covered roses, if you follow the plan.
