Rainy lazy ***** day

Rainy day in Florida.. We turned in a permit for a 7500 dollar job today.. Big laurel oak.. And about the questions about bidding jobs.. How much do you need to make per day to turn a profit. The main job is customer selection.. Better jobs for better money.. All boils down to advertising

Was there a question in that post? I didn't see any question marks.

Punctuation police. Can't expect too much from us tree guys. How much per day to make a profit? Too many variables in that "question". Location, length of season, equipment used/needed to do type of work you do, size of crew, etc.

Two man business, no employees, no boom, I shoot for $1,200 per day. Sometimes we're higher, sometimes lower. I usually try to bid jobs by how long I think its going to take vs. chip loads ect.

I also live in an area that $300,000 buys you a very nice house and $600 a day is good money. My formula may not work for many towns in CA or CO.
