On Point Power Wash
New member
Hey everyone, My name is Hugo. Just started my own business. Spent 8 years in the Marine Corps, became a police officer and decided to start my own PW company.
My question.. When it comes to networking and getting pointer..
1. Is it a good idea to reach out to local competition/ PW companies close by and ask them for pointers or advice about the business. Nothing about price but how to build/grow the business as well as best way to set up the trailer. I'm not looking to steal business from anyone. I want to gain as much info as possible and I figured that I could ask someone local and see if they would lend a helping hand.
2. When starting out... How did you start off? What are your best suggestions to build a clientele?
3. I have a cold water 4.5 gpm setup and just picked up a soft wash unit (GEN 3 from TPWS) would you get a 5 gpm hot water machine now or upgrade to a new cold water 8 gpm unit.
I want to have a solid unit that can handle residential and commercial once it presents itself. i don't want to get a job and then have to walk away because I don't have the resources.
Thank you so much in advance. I look forward to getting to know you all.. Any and all advice is appreciated.
