Just curious, what is a good years gross pay for a three man tree company? Is 200-250 K pretty good? Or is that lower than most?
 
Not really sure... but if you send me a check for $250.00 I can give you a detailed report and balance spreadsheet of your income vs. expenses. LOL!
 
it's enough to say goodbye to that chuck and duck and get a better chipper
 
If you made that in New Mexico....you are a god!! & to answer your question it would depend on where you live, where I live YES thats good money!! but ask someone in beverly hills, malibu or Conn. & thats probably not to good!!


LXT...........

$250,000 annual budgeted income - the simple math

On an average work year a company will do a little more then 200 days of production.

this works out to 50 weeks, 4 days a week. On average, mind you, just think of anything else as cushion.

If you can do 1250/day, on average, then you are doing rather well.

An easier way is divide weekly goal by 50 and you have a $5k/week goal. If you have good weather for the week that allows a 6 days of work the goal is $834/day, anything more is cushion.

Since you ask the question, it leads us to think that you probably do not have an operating budget for the year. Gross is one thing, net another. It is the NET/NET that is the kicker, because it is the true profit after tax.

Do you pay yourself as an employee, or take payment out of assumed profit?

I have worked with a number of companies to leverage more income from current operations, and there are several simple things that can any company can do to affect this change.
 
profit

So what types of service do you offer to other companies to generate more profit without additional expense for your operation?
 
A lot of it is looking at the operation to see how things can be improved: sales, scheduling, finding leads, building revolving accounts...

A lot of micro tree company owners have no prior business experiance; so simple ideas, like the one in the post above and some others I've posted in previous threads, can add significant value to their operations.

I think I agree with the Sanborn(John).
