@jadesprake People always ask if the money I show is actually real. It is. This is from handyman jobs we did that day. And to be so real, you might see this and think “wow, Jade makes a lot of money.” Nope. Not at all. I haven’t taken $1 out of my company. Not one. Some days are bigger because those were when we had bigger services. Some days are smaller because that’s when we primarily had quoting sessions - and we do our quoting for free right now. Quoting doesn’t directly bring in money right away, but it leads to us booking jobs, so it’s still super valuable. Me and my partners haven’t taken one dollar out to pay ourselves since we started this because we believe recycling the money back into the business is the most important thing right now. Also, we haven’t really hit numbers that allow us to take out good steady pay quite yet, but we’re on the road to do that. This is only our 14th week in business - we’re about 3 and a half months in. I think people see this money and instantly think this is what hits my bank account. That couldn’t be any farther from the truth. This is what hits my company’s bank account, and my company still has to pay my guys’ salaries, our vans, insurance, gas, ad spend - all those random expenses that come with running a company. So even though this money looks flashy and amazing, just know there’s immense amounts of hard work behind it. Follow along to see the real behind-the-scenes of building this.
