I want to hear your stories - whyād you start your business? What goals were/are you aiming for? What have you achieved? Whatās been the hardest part so far? Iām 27 and have been running my cleaning company for 3 years now. I started because I always knew I wanted more out of life - I just didnāt know how Iād get there. I tried a million jobs, launched a bunch of failed businessesā¦ nothing stuck. I sorta stumbled into cleaning when my girlfriend (who is now my wife) worked for a cleaning company that had her buying her own supplies, driving her own car, and carrying her own insurance. At the time, I was climbing cell towers for $20/hr, risking my life and we were still broke. Thatās when it clicked: if I could just get her some of her own clients, we could cut out the middleman. That was the beginning. Iāve always been good at branding, sales, customer service, and backend ops - so we went 50/50 and started our own company. Itās been a wild ride, but now weāve hired a team, and opened multiple locations. Thereās nothing in my life Iām more proud of than the way me and her have pulled through every bit of it, built a company from absolutely nothing, and came out on the other side stronger than ever.Are there other Locksmiths using Jobber?

You start out doing the work. You stay busy. You make decent money. But then what? You feel like youāre building something just because your phone keeps ringing. But if youāre not learning AND applying, I feel as if youāre wasting time. I was watching all the videos, reading all the booksā¦ but nothing was actually changing because I wasnāt acting on it. Iām saying this because Iāve lived it. And I know there are other guys out there right now doing good work, but theyāre not leading. Not building. Just staying busy. How do you all handle these feelings? All the IG post hit , motivate then Im just stuck scrolling. What helped you take action?
