💩 Why it's ugly

It is sparks, grime, awkward positions, and fixing equipment in places not designed for human comfort. The office is often a trailer, loading dock, farmyard, or industrial corner with opinions.

💰 Why it prints money

Broken gates, trailers, railings, dumpsters, equipment, stairs, and machinery often need on-site repair. Customers pay for mobility, speed, and downtime reduction, especially in construction, agriculture, logistics, and property management.

🗺️ The launch playbook 🔒

First 30 days

Register the entity and get the basic insurance sorted before anything else. Call the three biggest local operators and ask what they refuse to do — that refusal list is your launch menu. Price the first ten jobs deliberately low to collect reviews, then raise rates fifteen percent.

Days 31–60

Buy the used equipment, not the new one. The route density is what makes this profitable, so cluster your first customers within a twenty minute radius and decline anything outside it.

This is the part that makes money.
