Did the free training just change? i was about 3/4 through and now it seems super short and not as in depth as last week?

Same, less info is available but at least some of the docs are available.
Estimate formatting question
What do your estimates look like? Is it a total price with a job description or is like items with Project cost Mobilization Contingency

Same here as Jerad. They only see the total cost with a description of the work to be completed.
Radio Ads?
I realize that one of the biggest focuses of this group is advertising via Facebook and google, but I was on my way to my W2 job 🤮 this morning listening to the radio and was thinking about if it would be effective to run radio ads? Has anyone done this or considered this?
Insurance struggles
Hi everyone, has anyone else had difficulty getting general liability insurance for their forestry mulching business? The broker I've been working with is telling me that I keep being denied coverage because of the type of working I'm getting into and the combination of being a start up company, anyone have any suggestions on a route to take?

I didnt have any issue with it, I went to an insurance broker who had several options to choose from. My only struggle was that it took almost 2 weeks to get coverage.
Equipment rental
I finally found a place that rents forestry equipment.. it’s a T870 and the daily rent is $1900. Is there anything I should know when renting that I might have missed? Also if my daily rate is $3300, and someone only has a have a days work are you guys charging a minimum? At $1900 a day should I stick to the full days work so that it’s profitable? I know these seem like easy questions to some but I’m a newbie haha. Thanks in advanced for your help

Double check the rental company doesn't require a separate rental insurance coverage. Needed an Ex with a mulcher on it and the Cat dealer was the only one around that had one and required it for that. Ended up saving me a couple hundred per rental since I can add other rental companies to get their damage waiver waived but still spendy and took so long to get...
