Start a profitable local service business — cleaning, landscaping, pressure washing, or handyman — with under $5K. A step-by-step manual from choosing your service to hiring your first employee.
About the book
The U.S. home services industry exceeds $600 billion. It's made up almost entirely of small businesses and solo operators — and in most local markets, the bar for service quality is shockingly low. If you simply show up on time, do quality work, and communicate professionally, you'll outperform the majority of your competition.
This manual covers ten service categories from residential cleaning to pest control, with real startup costs, gross margins, and revenue projections. You'll learn how to choose your service, set up legally, price for profit, get your first customers, build a review generation machine, launch digital marketing, hire employees, and scale to multiple teams.
Every chapter ends with a numbered to-do list you can start implementing today.
