The richest handyman in the world...
If you live on the east coast you're probably feeling the heat!
Time to get AC's installed! I had a local handyman come install mine. We got to talking after the conversation and it absolutely the best conversation I've ever had with a handyman. I learned a ton.
Goes to show what you can do... if / when you want it enough.

- He's covering the keyword "his city handy man" in Google via multiple classified listing sites. Very simple brilliance. Put your ad everywhere, and Google displays them all on page one.
- He does a great job and is often asked; "can you do this, can you do that?" For big jobs - the stuff he couldn't handle, he'll connect them with a specific contractor and get 15% of each job. He's banking $175k in referral revenue. His close rate is stupendous because he basically "pre-closes" every client.
- He gives steep discounts to wealthy clients because he said its easier to upsell them other stuff when they think they're getting a deal on exceptional service.
- He's "spamming" Craigslist, using his 3 sons...
- Got laid off as a landline telephone expert, started posting ads on Craigslist, one thing lead to another, now he makes more than was as an upper manager in telephony.
