A guy in Walkertown does great work at resonable prices on shirts. I got mine there last year. Don't recall the price right now. I believe the name is C&D Design. Walter is the owner. He also has a guy that does lettering for trucks and trailers. On my enclosed he quted a price of $800.00. That was for 3 sides. I think the lettering guy is up in Summerfield. He does lettering part-time. If yall need more info I'll try to get it.

Just lost 3 properties yesterday thanks to a "lowballer". Makes me sick all of these people out here that are bid properties so low that us people in the industry have to try to make a decent living. They are killing the industry as far as pricing goes. I'll probably have those properties back in about a month due to their work.

kturf
03-10-2005, 10:15 AM
No not yet I gave them to a guy on this site from Winston and hopefully he will return the favor . check on those accounts you lost i bet the person who out bid you didn't have insurance. if he didn't scare those customers . tell them when the guy cuts his toes off and they loose there house the better price wont be worth it

Earth trends i lost couple accounts by being under bid . once i ask the home owner about the guys insurance they called me back and beg for me too do the work . Lot of home owners don't even think about the insurance issue and around here for a million dollars of lib insurance is really cheap make a great selling tool .

Hi, just starting out here. Lost my job at General Electric after 13 years so decided to give this a try since jobs are so hard to come by. So if you guys get calls from down this way you don't want to travel too I am not to proud to take table scraps. :D

Hey guys Im in the kernersville area. Havent been big in the busines in awhile, but looking to get geared up again. I have some residential lawns and a church that I maintain, always looking for scraps.

as far as the husqvarna trimmers go I have not tried the latest ones but I do run the 322l and 323l. These are very light and very high rpm's if needed! Great trimmers to sit out weathered for 5 years and always crank on the 3rd pull.

thx green I really appreciate it. I don't know the amount of how bad I was underbid but the customer said pretty bad on the residential. The properties were 2- 10,000 sq and 1 about 20,000. Incidently I saw the person that underbid me yesterday. Did the plugging with a beat up gravely lawn tractor and 36" pull behind plugger like you by at a Home Improvement store. Oh well.

Hey everyone I guess everyone in the triad area is slammed like me. Accounts still aren't where I would like them to be numbers wise. I am looking to gain more business from Advance to High Point ( excluding what Kturf) can gain. We would like to handle some fairly large yards if anyone cannot do them commercial or residential. Kturf I'm trying to hook you up in greensboro. Branch what area in winston are you?

My name is Danny I own and operate Reliable Lawn Care out of Walkertown. I am a part time owner operator looking for some extra accounts in the Kernersville, Walkertown and Winston area. I haven’t been real aggressive seeking new accounts because I will not be a lowballer. I mostly do mowing, pine needles and clean up work. Started the business to pay off Credit cards me and my wife lived on after we both got laid off after 9/11. Got a good full time job now selling Hydraulic components, wife’s job is getting out sourced to India.
Also looking for good used 48” or so walk behind.

Just wanted to sign on for the traid area :-) we don't do maintenance except for a handfull of accounts. We mostly do landscape installations of all sizes, though are (in)famous for our larger projects- though I'd love to do more small ones because they tend to be more profitable.
