You've definitely given me something to think about Mark. I'm actually looking for a cheap truck at the moment, and I'd love to raise my rates, but every time I start thinking about it, I finish up a job or two, and don't have a lot on the horizon, and I get very very nervous about nothing else coming in.
So far, any job I have bid that was big, (to me, big is $15K) I haven't gotten, and I'm not sure why. I'm pretty sure a landscape company would have bid much higher.
It may very well be my own comfort zone, that I can sell the jobs that are totally gardening, but when it comes to actual landscaping, I am not doing it right. I need to learn more. I'd love to sub for someone, but I've never seen anyone wanting to hire anything other than manual labor at $8 to $10. And other than master gardener, I have no credentials to justify asking more than that. Rectifying that is going to be my winter project.
So, if you have any gardening work in Denver, I'm your gal! :-)
