@Chris Leeck asked about apps here’s the simple stack I’d use if I had to start over tomorrow. 1. The Brain: Claude (AI) Claude is what I’m building all my AI agents with. It’s running a huge chunk of my business right now. - Writes and codes - Pulls data from Jobber + GoHighLevel - Builds reports and dashboards - Runs daily / weekly checklists - Helps run our marketing team You can get started for ~20–30 bucks a month, and there’s a beefier plan (the one I use) that can handle code, spreadsheets, and more. If you want a deeper breakdown of how I’ve wired Claude into Bear Claw + OWNR OPS, comment CLAUDE below and drop your questions. I’ll build this week’s live stream around it. 2. The Must-Have App: Jobber Jobber is what we use for: - Quoting - Scheduling - Invoicing - Time tracking (we sync timesheets into Gusto for payroll) I’ve used it since day one at Bear Claw. It’s the app I recommend if you’re not “techy” and your crew isn’t either. - Way simpler than trying to run everything in GoHighLevel - Way easier to train field guys on - Handles the ops side so you can focus on selling and doing the work If you want to grab it using my link you can get a free trial & discount code here: go.getjobber.com/ownrops At the time I recorded this, Jobber was running a 40% off promo (depending on when you view it, it could be already back down to 20% — I don't have any say when they run/change these promos fyi) Check that link for whatever their current deal is and take advantage if it’s live. 3. The Rest Of The Stack (Nice-To-Haves) - GoHighLevel / OWNR OPS snapshot – Marketing, leads, and automation. - OnX – Mapping and acreage estimation. - Zapier – Glue between everything (FB → text to your phone, Jobber ↔ GoHighLevel, etc.). - Gusto – Payroll + benefits (syncs with Jobber timesheets). - Google Workspace – Gmail, Drive, Docs, Sheets, quick video edits, plus Google’s AI (Gemini)

I have been using my I phone to do edits. What is the best way to edit video footage to make ad content? What is the best way to compress or keep it at 75MB for google?

Any tips on fence line quotes, for a church, about an acre. They want limbs done too and lots of rocks lol. I was thinking polesaw for a day and stack it for the mulcher to show up and take down the pile and have got the rocks outta the way from the polesawing and stacking. Thoughts? I kinda am at 4000 for 2 days mulching 1 day polesawing. Im still renting so my biggest expense is the mulcher for 1000 a day.

Hey Everyone! I have been operating based on just boosting posts and word of mouth and have been somewhat steady. I am looking to run an actual campaign here shortly to load up my calendar. Main question I have is that the majority of my jobs have been gravel driveways with a few mulching jobs here and there. Any recommendations if I should hit heavy on the gravel advertisement since it is what has been keeping me busy, or should I go heavy into the mulching and build more clientele for that? I am just not 100% sure which route I should specialize my business towards, or should I keep offering both services? My initial plan was to only offer mulching, but without much advertising I have been doing mostly gravel.
