- I have been asked many times in the comments about what kind of a living you can make as an Arborist. Hope this comes close to answering that question. I enjoy my career and there is a lot more to this line of work than just the paycheck. But, I will answer some questions.
That is what intelligence is for. Work to live, dont live to work. Regards from Argentina.
Nice one! Its always great to have an amazing view on a job it just makes the day!
That's something I have really enjoyed -- The annual visits to old customers. It's great to feel trusted and relied upon. I take good care of that. And where I am, the best properties are usually quite woodsy, which is where my heart is. One measure I have used RE "success" is the frequency of gratuities. I don't actually charge much. I just emphasize the good job and all the tree education the client wants. They may then show extra appreciation with a tip. That contributes to my perception of "success". And it builds word-of-mouth.
Good vid. Thank you Blair.
It probably helps that you are named after a tree Mr Dougfir........ ;-)
Michael Dougfir tips are good! I wish we got them more often but they are always appreciated
Your advice applies to many businesses , thanks for sharing it.
Jerry Sateriale attitude is everything
Enjoy, be ethical, and Always do a good job! Amen!!
Blair, congratulations with the results and the florishing business, you are an honest and hard working man that really cares for others.
Here in Mexico one should never make a video like this for safety reasons.
Keep on the good work with your informative videos. I always look at the canopies of the trees, the free space they have at ground level... I always wonder where they get their water from.
Best regards from Mexico
The excesses in this area are obscene
Great advice, as always!
Nathan Tonning thanks,
I really like to watch your videos thanks for all details
"You can make as much money as you want"? To paraphrase Han Solo, "I can want a lot!" :-)
Good video; we need more people with your attitude about doing quality work.
Balance your need for income with time for yourself and family, and you will be a rich man.

@@arboristBlairGlenn perfect answer.
Great video my friend!
do you work with insurance companies? if so, how do you get them?? love your content as well!
You are so right
I think there's a big difference from making money as an arborist and making money in the tree cutting business. Many arborists are "consulting" arborists who are hired only for their knowledge and advice. You are hired for that AND to follow through with whatever that advice would lead to. On the other hand, many tree companies don't have a certified arborist within the company. I sure regret not getting certified myself.
You'are a good MAN and a nice prerson!!!
Marin Saitis thank you
If you don't mind me asking, do many of your clients get to know you through this channel?
agun17 quite a few new clients find me when they search for an answer to a Tree problem. Most people watch a video before reading these days.
Brilliant Glen!
I saw a man who is a soul in profession. Not money (although this is important because even good deeds cost money). I am often suspected that if I was treating a 600-year-old oak, then my fee should be like that of a person from Wall Street.
This is fundamentally wrong. And not because I'm not a certified arborist, but because my business in treating plants and solving problems with their cultivation does not come from my wallet, but from my heart. And the highest award for me was not the recognition of society, but the fact that my son wanted to develop this business as a family business
Igor Singer I’m happy to see that you are working your way through my rather extensive collection of educational videos. There are some good bits in here if you find them. Also some good stories😊
I've just started cutting down 4 small trees( 20-30ft) for some one and I'm wondering what to charge them. I'm not doing this for the money but more for experience. Could you tell me a fair price for me and the clients. Thanks
James Dombroski how much do you want to make per hour? How many hours will it take? How much for your equipment and dump fees? Deduct for no insurance or employees. Now, do the math. Pretty simple formula.
I haven't really done this before so thanks
Honesty will make you the best money in the long run. You're going to have bad bids, and lose, and you're going to, sometimes do so good on successful bids, and acquire other jobs. The main thing to be, is to be truthful with your pricing. Know what it's going to cost you, and give a fair price, period. It will provide paychecks for your entire career, with referrals.
Always do a good job
Even if you don't like the client
Nice video sir😊
Glad you enjoyed this. Are you living in the Philippines?
the perfect ending.
What got you interested in doing this for a living? Its a great job to work outside at different places. you are so passionate about your job. You treat those trees with respect. Most people get on a tree with a chainsaw and start whacking.
Randy Reed the climbing and working outdoors came from my youth. Here I am in 1972, 18 years old. Lived a year in Yosemite

Blair, Holyshit, I was just starting the redwoods, THIS looks scarier!
The truth 👍
It's not how much money you make it's if you enjoy it you never will really work a day in your life.
I guess you enjoy working on those properties but wouldn't you want to live on one? "You can make as much as you /want/ to make" Is there some sort of cap to these profits?
I could double my income but that would short change my time with my family. Everything I own is paid for including my home. That is the cap for me.
Glad to hear that you are living the way you want to. I was just wondering exactly what you meant by that.
Hi Blair!
Nice vid. But, money doesn't matter so much. Allways try to do something that keeps you content, thats much more importend. But to be honest: I'm really jealous ;-)

Rabennase3 I couldn't agree more. If money was my primary goal, tree work is not the best option. However, I enjoy working outdoors and staying in shape too.
