    Maybe I just haven’t had the patience to sit through it but this is the best explanation of how to figure out what you need to charge that I’ve ever heard. Most folks stop at “you need to know your numbers” which is what’s you said, just way more in depth lol. This was really good

      Agreed. I’ll make another video explaining that, but once you have the basic concept down adding employees to the mix Isn’t it is confusing as it seems. It’s just a lot more expensive.

    This was good stuff! Don't hesitate to flex some 'power point muscle' and throw some figures or tables on the screen while you talk--might help those of us who are more visual learners but this was pretty crystal clear. I appreciate your candor and transparency to help others learn! As someone else said, tell us more about the answering service--how that's working for you, what your customers think, etc.? We have a few small businesses we run and honestly I almost ignore the phone anyways, shoot them a text, and see if they book!

    • @KroopinsPoopinScoopin
      @KroopinsPoopinScoopin  Год назад +1

      You are right, I definitely should’ve added some visuals. I will definitely keep that in mind for my next video when I talk about numbers. More preparation will need to go onto that video, but I know I can make it happen.
      I will make another video specifically talking about the phone answering thing. I have a short video about it. I will include a link down below. This is a really short explanation video, but I will make a more detailed video about it and from questions that you guys have.

      @KroopinsPoopinScoopin  Год назад

      Hey there, I don’t deodorize the yards as of right now. I have a product called wisiwash but I haven’t actually fully launched because we’ve been pretty busy with just scoops. Having said that, sanitizing is an excellent add-on service and I highly recommend it if you can work it into your schedule.
