How to Make Money Fast - Without a JOB ! Install Christmas Lights

Kenny with done right landscaping on and he is going to teach us how to make a lot of money in a very short time installing holiday lights anywhere from ten thousand dollars and thirty days up to a hundred thousand dollars he's going to teach us how to price these up Kenny we got you on the air okay you know should do Stan let's talk about pricing now a lot of landscape less service oriented companies that have crews may have looked at holiday lighting and wondered how do you price something like that out now you have flat rate pricing and package pricing can you tell us how you break that down I sure can stand for single story homes if you have your own lights so we'll put those up for $150 two story homes if you have your own lights we'll put those up with $250 you technically don't have to provide any materials and you charge $150 labor to cover installing that's just the front of the house is that right Kenny yes that's correct that's just the front roof line the gutter line that uses the front facade what if they don't have any of their own lights how do you break down the pricing that I'm gonna break in right here to tell you about a new free webinar coming out entitled it's all about money we're gonna be talking about ways that small companies can differentiate themselves from the entire herd that's out there to land jobs that make them bigger profits the big companies know how to do this exactly it's a science I know how to do this the difference is the big companies keep it secret I don't go join my free webinar I'm going to teach you how to bid jobs to make more money to build a business that will support the life that you deserve now back to your regularly scheduled program thank you and I have some get I have a guest today but they learned about holiday lighting will provide those lights for them and that cost would be 300 hours for a single story and go all the way up to $600 for a historian you provide packages which makes the purchasing decision a little easier doesn't it yes it does we provide photos of those packages along so they can see what they're getting but can you define what you mean by a package candy so the people watching right now can kind of start to figure out how they can run a business like this on their own sure we'll go with a single story home front facade we've just decorated a drip edge the rough line now we're on the ground and they've got three bushes in front we'll throw some nuts on those wipe those up we'll run our power cords thrown three reindeer up one and we'll put a Santa Claus out there a big inflatable Santa Claus that package on the single-story home is going to run four hundred fifty dollars and that includes you providing the parts in this instance yes that we're providing everything we provide the lights the clips the extension cords the timers everything from A to Z you don't have to do anything we call it as we set it and we forget it plug that timer in and it's good to go with anything and then you remove it all for that same price so the 450 flat rate fee includes installation all of the lights decorations all of the goodies that are going on the house and then you pulling it down as soon as Christmas is over yes that's correct and it also covers three service calls so in the event our lights go out we don't charge the client we go out there we fix them now if we use your lights they go out we're gonna charge your service call our service calls for single-story homes start at $30 plus parts whatever you need typically my guys carry extra lights with them so they're pretty much set up now second story it's going to be $40 for the service hall so this is really a great way to keep those crews that are maybe having downtime in November busy all the way up until miss doing installs and services and we start November 1st we'll run our lights all the way up until the 18th on the installs or Christmas they're running six days a week sometimes 10 12 hour days one of the things that we brought up off-camera that I want to mention right now is how you actually sell these lights there isn't a mad scramble to sell them and coming in October you were actually selling Christmas like all year round how do you do that we do new installs and backyard makeovers and Eric make oh this is what my sales teams are over there if you're a client of ours your client of ours for life we like to save a great opportunity you know the talk to him about restoring your Christmas lights on this sound give us a call for Christmas and then both can do some follow-ups over the year - leading up to it so when you're doing an install for a landscape or you're servicing a property for their lawn maintenance you're actually doing what's called a soft touch to plant the seed - have you guys come in and do the holiday lighting farm absolutely we'll probably hit out of ten people will probably hit four I'd say those are pretty good numbers so it's definitely working let's say that you have a two-man crew and you want to keep them busy hanging holiday lights can generate typically anywhere from ten to twenty thousand dollars in extra revenue for a crew that would normally be down in a month is that a safe number to go by Kenny or what are your thoughts on that you're hitting the number issue pretty much in the area of where you're at now those numbers will fluctuate and what makes the fluctuations happen are the packages that you sell so you can at times you can peak we've got one client we do is like this 1200 hours now that's just one client you get ten of those clients when you're selling packages at six fifty seven hundred dollars and you just got done installing ten of those homes in one week there's seven thousand dollars right there and you can actually go up from there by doing custom packages you in fact we do that we measure rough lines with custom cut white Spurs Pacific horns in those plants on the contract with us for two years I can see where you use your flat rate pricing to get your foot in the door and then you can upsell it from there and add-on and all those upsells and really where your profits lie when you're installing Christmas lights yes you know you see their eyes light up you know they've got to have it you know they're looking at the neighbor down the street and they're saying well I'm gonna do it I'm gonna outdo you this year so you know you kind of get that competitive thing going - out there oh yeah you got to keep up with the Johnsons and you're actually hitting on an emotional cue you know you're down to use that I've got people I mean you wouldn't believe you know they they got outdo everybody Kenny thank you for sharing your wisdom today thank you for teaching us how to price out and what the potential is for this market and a way to keep your crews busy and otherwise what could be potentially a slow month so thank you for
