    837. How Confident Are You in Your Pricing?
    Jul 9 2025
    In today’s episode, we’re asking the hard question: How confident are you in your pricing? If you hesitate even a little, this episode is for you. We’re digging into the real numbers behind bidding, estimating, and knowing your worth — because guessing isn't a strategy, and “what the other guys charge” isn’t a business model. Whether you’re pricing a lawn, a mulch job, or a six-figure commercial snow contract, you need to be 100% dialed in. We’ll break down how to calculate your costs, factor in overhead, and build in healthy profit margins — so you're not just staying busy, but actually making money. Let’s get you pricing with confidence, clarity, and conviction. Tune in and take your quoting game to the next level! 🚨 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: TICKETS ARE OFFICIALLY ON SALE! 🚨 Lawntrepreneur Academy LIVE 2025 is locked, loaded, and ready to change the game — and this is your chance to be in the room.
