#1 Tip if You Could Start All Over?

[jarred767]

look for deals on supplies; craigslist, amazon, AG, CG's, dollar store, and especially the clearance aisle at Wal-Mart!!! always try to save money where you can. Can I ask, is this your souce for most of your income? or is this a hobby where you want to just want to make some extra cash?

Good tips, I usually buy everything in bulk online, so I feel like my costs aren't much of an issue.

The business is not only the source for most of my income, it's all of it. I started part-time 9 years ago, switched to full time 6 years ago, and my wife left her job to stay at home with the kiddo 2 years ago and now I've been able to put aside a decent amount to help with the transition of the move. I've gotten busier and busier every year and am to the point of definitely needing an employee to keep up, so it will be weird going back to square one.

I'm just looking for any tips and advice that might help me get back up to this same point (or at least close) in about a year this time around - I've got a full plan, just trying to see if there's stuff I can add to it (like the gym membership mentioned earlier in this thread. Out of curiosity, why do you ask?

Reach out to all of the Paintless Dent Repair Specialists in your area

I did a Google search and it looks like there are quite a few in Bend, OR

Take a few of them to lunch


The PDR guy that I had come pop a dent during my last detail, just hooked me up with a really nice gig on a 1975 Porsche 911 Turbo
