Not one mention about your transition into your first Truckmount.......
Odd.
Odd.
It was an excellent biz discision
Yeah but, when his customers ask, "do you have a truck mount" he can honestly say yes. Doesn't mean he has to use it.how do you know?
you bought a frozen/broke TM that you haven't put one hour yet?
..L.T.A.

When I bought my current business, it came with a client list. Turned out to be the most valuable part. 30 years later, I still have a lot of those original customers and now their kids as well.Customer are the biz, not necessarily the equipment. The guy who sold me the TM basically gave me his commercial clients that i am now currently servicing. And yes i will be doing the carpets and windows for them as well. Most people have to buy those clients any other circumstances..i didnt.
These are big clients btw..
I actually found the title to the damn van. It was under my bed! It's not for sell. I decided to keep it. I can't afford to have my main van go down and i'm going to try and get it going in the field with another employee.should of bought Damon's
He'd be cleaning with one already....

What difference does that make? These are TnG/window cleaning jobs in multiple locations in northern NV that recently ask if the headquarters can be cleaned as well...are these "big client" janitorial accounts he gave away?

A lot of guys just decide to go out of business. Years ago I came across an ad for some flood fans. Found out the guy had a successful business for over 20 years. He retired decided to just sell off his equipment and it never dawned on him that someone might want his customer list. He had a dry cleaning store and a carpet cleaning operation that he just shut down instead of selling.None to me .
just curious why someone would give away big accounts(JanSan or otherwise) with a frozen TM
and I sincerely hope the HX'er is the only problem with the TM.
That's expensive and a PITA to wrench on in and of it's self
and I really don't want to be a Debbie Downer...BUTT when a TM freezes other issues beyond obvious may manifest within a short while of use

That exactly what he did. He just shut it down and start a different biz. He had 3 truck with el Diablo diesel burner running full time. The hydramaster/van was his recent purchase as a 4 truck and a backup, the hx was already out when he bought it to fix it.A lot of guys just decide to go out of business
