Hello Joe. Thank you. I live in NC and am seriously thinking about starting a fencing company. Would you consider mentoring a late blooming adult who is going to try to make a go of it? Regardless I appreciate the time and effort you put into making this video for the rest of us. May God bless you!
Joe, what aluminum fencing manufactueres do you suggest? Have you ever heard of gemstone out of NJ. Thanks?

1-know your numbers, such as your Daily Overhead cost. That was a big one for me.
2 - Know your worth, dont be scared to be highest bid, although not the goal. Be concerened when you are the lowest bid, especially when consistently the low bid.
3 - Be professional and appear professional in every aspect. Have a professional website and social media platforms. When meeting customers wear a collared shirt if possible. Keep clean looking trucks and equipment, not necessarily new. An “Oldie but goodie”
4 - Be responsive to customers. Respond quickly to phone calls and provide a quick turnaround on estimates.
5 - Treat your employees like a team member, not just an employee. You will get a bad apple here and there, but good ones will want to work for you if they feel “wanted” and and a part of the “TEAM”. Buy them lunch every once and a while and thank them for a good job. Praise in public, discipline in private.
Bonus Tip: “Pre qualify” or filter your customers. Come up with a way to make sure they are serious on the phone call so you’re not wasting a couple hours on meeting them and figuring the estimate.
Frye Fence & Curbscaping LLC , great wisdom, thank you both for sharing.
where do fence companies usually get their wood and metal fence materials from?
Joe how should i sell a custom fence that was 12 thousand dollars 7 foot tall and 85 feet long broken up into 17 5 foot sections black steel
You have a group to help get people start on even just side hustle fencing
Hi I m deaf my name Vernada Whiteside also I think about 20 each for backyard plus meters from front about Six each thanks
Hey Vernada, thanks for watching!
I didn't hear licence or is that not needed
Likely depends on the area, in our area one is not needed.
How to keep more people from competing in the Fence Industry: “Tell them to save 12 months of savings before starting a fence company”
There are many more edges to being competitive that I know you meant mention here (and I won’t either) lol
Plenty of people get into the industry with a pickup and a credit card. But, that’s probably why most new startups last 3-5 years.
Quick tip: Don't compete with anyone or company than yourself.
You can do whatever you put your mind too. I started with $200
Great information. Gangrene arm distracting.
Sounds like a personal problem ^
why you wearing a prison uniform? lol
So basically, either be rich or get the business passed down from Daddy.
No you got to put the hard work in first put your time in working with a few really good installers learn the business inside and out I'd even recommend working at a wholesaler for short time you can set up an LLC or DBA get a license and insurance start subbing for somebody why you build your brand up but you got to put the work in
I have been doing it on the side for yrs most of my work comes word of mouth and I have non of what was suggested in this video now I agree to run a legit company all of this is needed but when I talk to a potential customer I explain that yes I can do they work as good as any named company but u the home take on responsibility u need to pull the permits get the utilities located and I lay out exactly what I need to do to give them the fence they want and I get them to sign a agreement statement and if something needs to change I talk to them and it gets added in... I also turn down a lot of work if I get there and looking at everything and talking to the homeowner if I feel that the work is more then I can handle or that something might happen I politely explain that hiring a fence company would be best for there needs
