Seeking ideas for developing power partnerships to better work with clients & grow our biz?!!
Hi all, We are a local fire protection company here in Los Angeles and we do both sales and service of fire extinguishers, as well as specialty fire equipment and resources. I am putting this question out there both for connections and suggestions on best developing power partnership with other local companies that work with residences, properties and businesses, to help collaborate on our services provided and add more value to them and more revenue to both partners. Example of our power partners are roofers, GC's, management companies, HOAs, solar companies, fire and water damage companies, Security and locksmith companies, Insurance agencies... Would love to hear your feedback and suggestions and love to work with you as well, if we could benefit from partnership. This, would be a more effective way to grow our businesses than social media or other passive ways I believe! Payam. Lavi | Supervisor PalFirePro.comYour Best Marketing Ideas!

How I Run My UK Handyman Business Remotely from Vietnam
For years, I was deep in the day-to-day grind of running a handyman business in the UK—on the tools, quoting jobs, chasing leads, and constantly firefighting. It wasn’t until I started building proper systems that I could finally step back and work on my business instead of in it. One of the biggest bottlenecks I faced—right up there with hiring reliable subcontractors—was quoting. Driving out to jobs just to quote ate up time, fuel, and momentum. It was inefficient, and I knew it had to change if I wanted to scale. Fast forward to today: I now live in Vietnam and operate the business fully remotely. The shift has only been possible thanks to the systems I’ve built—particularly around lead handling and quoting. We’ve leaned heavily into WhatsApp quoting. It’s fast, convenient for customers, and lets us triage leads without wasting site visits. But what makes it really work is our lead scoring matrix. It helps us determine—based on a few key inputs—whether we: Send a WhatsApp video request, Offer an instant rough online quote, or Recommend a full in-person visit. This automated decision-making process has transformed how we handle incoming leads. It’s a win-win: customers get faster answers, and we save time while focusing on high-value jobs.
