    I just started a few weeks ago. I work with a warranty company called Puls. Since I am only working on the weekend, I don't complain about the 40 bucks for diagnosis. They don't pay well, but I use them to get me started.

    Thanks for the great video. I have a question regarding billing the warranty company. Let say you go and do a diagnosis and have to order a part to replace the old one. Do you charge them the diagnosis fee and the repair fee since you have to come back and put the part in? Thanks

    I find warranty work to be best for people starting out. They pay so poorly and theyre so difficult to work with that it's something, that as yo grow, you move away from warranty work. I agree, lots of work. It's the only pro I know of. The cons: Pay sucks. Paperwork/ redtape sucks. TREMONDOUSLY bottom feeding customers. New guy? Do warranty. More experienced? Not worth it. I',m an HVAC guy.

      Look into the samurai appliance repair school they are online and self paced study.. otherwise there are other places you can attend . Look at your local tech schools most courses are like a year or lease.

    What do u think about doing work for Sears ? I own a Outdoor Power Equipment dealership in the New Orleans area. And been a service center for Sears for over 20 yrs for there Lawn Equipment. and they have been begging me to take over there repairs on Appliances. For one i don't know anything about Appliance repairs, '' I am a Master Tech Generator and Small gas engines, and i do a electrical background , and have a big background of service and repairs. I was thinking of hiring a Sears Tech to do all the Service and repairs for the Appliances . I was told i would get over 50 calls a week. Or should i stick what i know. But Money is Money. and i hate to lose any of it.

      Hi buddy.
      In my opinion.. If you feel the cash is there.. I say go for it.
      Expand your business. Otherwise you will never know unless you try.
      I like one thing you said. " that you don't know nothing about appliances". That is your best thing.. Because if you take your time and find yourself a quality service guy, you can turn him into the appliance supervisor/ operator and you can focus on the business part.
      A great part of growing your business is knowing when stop doing the work yourself.and allow someone else to take over, so you can focus on growing your brand.
      I say go for it.
      Therr is plenty cash for everyone to make, and also you can start your own used appliance store, when you come across good appliances that might need a few $$ to get em running.
      I won't wish you luck, cuz luck is for loosers.. I will wish you success because great people always deserve to be successful.

    Brandon: Question about learning the trade: How long did it take to complete Master Samurai ? Also, did the name of the other course you took (and didn't learn much from) have the word "Uncle" in it? I'm trying to get into the trade like you and want to make sure I'm getting the correct training . Some courses remind me of being a PCM. and B) get an estimate on how long this might take to get up and running. Last question: Do you have a basic, beginner's list of parts you need to have on hand (in your truck) to begin making calls?
    Thanks man.

      Ashley Lad Hey David hope you subscribed. And thanks for watching. Well I'd prefer not to comment on a school. Also I will say that Samurai school is legit. But the reality is you need hands on. Get you some beaters on Craigslist and break them fix them. And get your hands dirty. Also I do carry standard parts on my truck. And lastly as far as your question on getting started, that all depends on the individual. I got started in less than a month.. some take longer or sooner. Hope that answers your questions

      @ashleyladoucieur8969 6 лет назад

      Thanks. I know I'm asking a lot here, but since you're offering to help us newbies out who are trying to get into the business:
      The Samurai course is very indepth and looks like it would take some time to complete. Did you finish it before you started working or were you still taking the courses?
      Pricing: How are rates set? Do you use The Blue Book or some other resource to set pricing, or did you create your own pricing?
      Parts in your truck: Do you have a standard list that should be purchased and had on hand starting the first day? This seems to be a trade secret for some reason.
      Last: How long did it take to work up to 3-4 jobs per day?
      Thanks again,
      David

      Ok I will say it, don't buy uncle Harry's. I have it and use it, but every call I go to i find myself using youtube and Eric Kleinerts troubleshooting book. You will learn from Uncle Harry but the course is not worth the price. The wizard is not at all what it's puffed up as. The wizard will teach you enough to get you in trouble.

      To add my two cents here. I started with a in town company that was willing to train. I changed professions from GM work to appliance repair without any knowledge what so ever. For me it was the only way I would have been comfortable with. After a year of working with them I have been comfortable enough in my skill and knowledge to do my own thing. There are a few advantages to this and things to look out for. The advantage is making steady money while learning and having people to talk to about things you get stuck on, it will happen. I also have to invest in only my tools during this period and that can be a fairly good chunk depending on what you already have. Look out for "No compete" papers that they may ask you to sign. In my state a no compete means little to nothing but in others it may prevent you from doing your own thing in a timely manner. Start off slow, give yourself 2-4 calls to see in a day and take your time. Eventually i got to the point where i would say 75% of my calls i have figured out before I ever get to the house and about 15% I have a really good idea of what is happening. It can be a bit intimidating at first but it does get easier.
