A new beginning!!!! Hello :)


Recommended Posts

well done for surviving and enjoying your 1st 5 years , many dont make it past year 1 , many more lose their shirt .

its always been a trade of you get out what you put in , its always good to read a happy outcome , you should be proud as your in the minority of the new starts we see come and go every year , so well done and keep going .

i wouldnt say we are miserable , we see dozens of such posts on dozens of forums every year , most not all , have rose coloured specs on thinking all they need to get on is a course and facebook , most dont have a clue how to run a business or the graft and work it takes to learn a trade whilst running a business , there are always the exceptions but the exceptions are the minority.

my mood doesnt change , despite loving what i do , im counting down to retirement and i wont look back.

congratulations on your 5th year trading and i hope you enjoy many more.

The best advice i can give anyone is not to get complacent , every day is a school day and we are forever learning as things change and move on all of the time. develop routine processes you follow , like battery support , pre job and post job fault scans etc , never assume ,  use qulaity parts and honour guarantees .

Never make claims you cant fulfill , even the easiest of jobs can humble us and kick our backside.

Always charge enough to build an investment pot to buy the new tech needed as things change and when kit becomes outdated , this one is the downfall of many. i dont aim to be cheaper but i do aim to give value in the right quality in parts , service and workmanship.

the most important i believe for all from the newest to the oldest in trade ,  is to remember that none of us are any better than our last job or our next job , this never changes, a reputation takes years to build but can be quickly ruined.
