You may have to hire someone to do your webpage correctly. One feature you should have is the ability to let the customer pick the date they want to be pumped out. Your web page could show green on the dates you have open and red for all booked up. The reason I say this is because right now, I don't feel like going out into the back yard to find and mark my tank so I don't want it pumped out till next Thursday. Don't forget the add on options if there are any. Crude cleaner Inspection Scented septic cleaner Re-cover top with soil and so on ( I actually have no idea what I'm talking about) I would think if your ahead of schedule one day you could see who is ready on the next day and show up then you could get on your laptop and modify your web page and free up a slot for the next day also. You could also offer frequent pooper points to repeat customers. It could be like little piles of crap that indicate how many points you have. Like shower credits. Geezus man, I'm on a roll here. (roll, get it) |

They should flourish. Make yourself stand out, and give them something to talk about. This won't cost hardly anything, and could be pretty funny if you get known by it. Include the daisies in your website somehow. :D I always run my business with this motto, "Give em what they paid for, and just a little bit more" and I had tremendous repeat business, which is what you want. You don't want to have to sell yourself over and over again, but spend your time, selling your services to repeat customers, who will in fact recommend you. Good luck to you young man. Go after it, it's yours. jonboy |
Just had mine done last week, $210.00, guy had a Mack tri-axle, don't know how big the tank was on the truck.
Guy was in and out in about an hour. |
I would get his last three years p&l statements and take them to an accountant. Discuss every aspect of this venture with the accountant, and see what he says. It's really worth it.
If it looks good go for it, no one else is going to make you wealthy, except you. I think there was some good ideas mentioned above, and I'm sure there's more to follow. Just remember, if this venture does work out and you find yourself with a bank full of money, don't walk around like you're King $hiT. :lol: sorry, I had to. Good luck, keep us posted |
This was a normal 1500 septic tank. We were living in OR and staying on a ranch taking care of horses for rent (Bo was on the road with Arrow lease truck) anyway they had to have the tank pumped and it was OVER 400.00 for the job.

Came up with a few motto's.
When your knee deep in crap, let us take the sh** for you. Don't take any sh** from anyone except us. Sh** happens and we will be there. We are the sh** brothers, call Jack, Giva, Little or Know for immediate service. |
Or...
you could paint your truck brown and call yourself UPS (Ultimate Pro Shitsuckers) "What Can Brown Do for You?" |
How about: " We want to clean out your tank, not your pockets".
