The Price Breakdown
To establish business:
1. License Fees for state and city= $500
2. Insurance/Bond/Worker's comp = $1700 for 1st year
3. An office or place to conduct business
= Whatever you decide.
(Don't be to picky. You can run a branch 3 termite
company out of your existing office, it's not a problem. If
you're running your real estate business out of your residence,
then you can do the same with you're termite company. A huge
percentage of established termite companies are doing just that.
4. Donald's qualifying manager fee = $1500 monthly
(Just like a real estate company needs a broker, a
termite company needs an operator as its qualifying manager.)
Total Cost = Less than $3500 to get established.
To conduct Business:
1. Equipment for worker (Work and Safety) = $700
2. Chemical for termite work = $300
3. Spray rig for pesticides = $2500
4. Termite report computer program = $1500 install, $350 yearly tech support for one computer, $250 for each additional computer (recommend at least two computers)
5. Vehicle (light duty pick up) = down payment plus monthly
6. Office supplies (Desks, computers, fax, copier, filing system, etc)= use the equipment that you already have.
Total Cost = Less than $6000 to get established.
Personnel
1. Qualifying Manager (Donald) = $1500 monthly
(Just like a real estate company needs a broker, a
termite company needs an operator as its qualifying manager.)
2. Receptionist (soon to be office manager) = $12 an hour to start
3. Termite Inspection = $15 - 18 an hour
Remember, if you already have some of these items or personnel, then you can use them. If you have a secretary that is willing to do work for your termite company, then I can train her.
If you or anyone you know wants to become a state licensed termite inspector and eventually become your new qualifying manager, then I can train them too.
YOU DO THE MATH!!!
Most real estate companies give $10,000s or more away to a termite company each month when it costs less than $8,000 a month to run your own termite company. That's including payroll and other monthly expenses.
Then there's subcontracting your fumigations out to a branch 1 company. That's when you start making big money and I'll show you how to do this.
So really, stop giving away thousands of dollars to a termite company. Start your own termite company, today.
