The Following Is An Outline From Dan Perry's Guest Appearance On The Contractors Success M.A.P. Podcast which you can listen to below. It is on iTunes, Stitcher Radio, Pocket Casts and all popular podcast directories.
Dan Perry is the founder of HandymanStartup.com - a community dedicated to
helping handymen, plumbers, electricians, and contractors
understand business and marketing so they can get more customers,
make more money, and enjoy their businesses. Connect with him at
www.handymanstartup.com or on twitter @bigdhandyman.
Dan, please tell us about your background and how you came to be
where you are now.
Originally from a small town, I went to college in Reno, NV with no
idea what I wanted to do. I decided to major in Mechanical
Engineering because I didn’t know any better. I graduated,
got a job in Engineering, and hated it. I worked there for
3.5 years before I finally quit without a plan or job.
6 months later I decided to start my own handyman business, despite
not having many skills or much business knowledge. During the
process, I shared my story, struggles, and lessons learned on
HandymanStartup.com.
I gained a really solid following and although I still run my own
handyman business, my main focus is helping people in the trades to
get more customers, make more money, and enjoy their
businesses.
My online marketing was the key to my success as a handyman and
it’s also a large portion of what I teach on
HandymanStartup.com.
What are some differences between you and your competitors?
I’m sharing what I learn in real time so my content is very
relevant. Also, I’m sharing these lessons as I learn them
which allows me a unique perspective of having a student and
teacher perspective at the same time.
What problem or issue does your product or service solve?
Handymen struggle to get started and fill their schedule with
quality clients. I teach them a step by step system to follow
to generate their own leads with The Handyman Web Academy.
What are three things a contractor should consider when hiring your
services?
Do they want to start a handyman business? Do they enjoy
small repair jobs? Are they good with people?
How can you tell if someone is a good fit for your company?
They own (or want to own) a handyman business and are willing to
work hard to create a more profitable and enjoyable
business.
What types of advice do you give a contractor?
In closing, tell us about the services and how listeners can
contact you.
I offer a ton of free content on HandymanStartup.com and through my
podcast which can be found in iTunes.
I offer a paid course called the Handyman Web Academy which is my
online marketing system broken down into step by step video
training.
