Most of us are in “slow season” right now (or just coming out) Machines have been parked. Phone’s quiet. A lot of guys use that as an excuse to do nothing for those of you who want to do something about it, check this out! there are only 4 Ways To Advertise Literally. Every lead you will ever get comes from one of these four buckets. there are 2 types of people: • People who already know you (warm) • Total strangers (cold) Two ways to talk to them: • 1:1 (private) • 1:many (public) That gives you the “core four”: Let's start with the 2 ways to reach your WARM audience 1:1 (Private) aka WARM OUTREACH: Text / call every past customer, GC, realtor, excavator, and buddy who’s sent you work in the past: Script is simple: “Hey __, it’s __. I’ve got a couple March/April openings for mulching / clearing. Any projects you want me to look at or quote ahead of time?” Goal: 20–50 real conversations this week, not 2 half‑hearted texts.\\ 1 to Many (Warm) aka POSTING CONTENT: You’ve already got followers, friends, and people creeping on your profile. Show them you’re alive. • Post before/after pics of your best jobs • Write 3–5 “what to expect with forestry mulching” posts • Do a simple selfie video walking a job and explaining what you’d change Hit Facebook profile, Google Business page, local groups, email list. Goal? 1 useful post each day (don't overthink it - you don't need an editor) Now, let's cover the COLD audience 1:1 (COLD) – aka COLD OUTREACH Builders, developers, realtors, property managers, HOA boards. Most of them don’t have “their mulching guy” yet. Make a hit list of 50–100 and reach out: “Got a mulcher & crew. We handle ___ area. If you ever need overgrown lots / fence lines cleaned up, happy to be your first quote.”Your slow season is when they actually have time to talk vendors. hit the builders and GCs for land clearing jobs hit the real estate agents for the forestry mulching and property improvement jobs 1 to many (COLD) – PAID ADS

Completed a mulching job a couple days ago where the guy called from website wanting a area cleared on new property he bought to open it up. Stated only wanted about 4 hours of mulching and the job was an 1 1/2 hours away. Told him the only way I would be interested in it was as full day job and quoted over the phone $2500 for the day. Set a site visit for Saturday. He called Friday and said to just do the job. Showed up at site visit with equipment walked the property which was extremely rocky. Told him I could mulch it down but would not be ground very fine due to the rock. He agreed and proceeded to mulch. Finished the job about 1 1/2 acres mulched, got paid and 5star review before leaving.

If you run a land clearing / forestry mulching business, you probably feel this: - Leads and jobs scattered across texts, Facebook, Jobber, your notebook - Guessing at pricing and hoping you didn’t underbid - No reliable way to see, “What’s booked and what’s actually hitting my bank in the next 30 days?” That’s exactly what drove me crazy in the early years running Bear Claw... Since then, we’ve been duct‑taping GoHighLevel, Jobber, and a bunch of spreadsheets together. It works, but it’s way harder than it should be. So this year I finally said: screw it, I’m building the software system I wish existed. What I’m building (and why you should care) Over the last few months, we’ve been building OPS ENGINE: The operating system I use to run a 7‑figure fire mitigation / land‑clearing business… turned into software you can plug into your business. -Profitable Pricing -Fast FB Lead Capture -Automatic Text/Email Follow Ups -CRM Sales Pipeline -Speed To Lead Tracking -Quoting, Scheduling, Invoicing -Payment Capture -Dashboard (with metrics that actually matter) OPS ENGINE is built for one purpose: Take a “guy with a machine” and turn him into the owner of a real, scalable land‑clearing business by saving time, automating repetitive tasks, and tracking the most important metrics. If you follow along, you’ll see exactly how we: - Price jobs using crew‑day math so you stop working for free - Capture every lead from FB Ads, website call, form submission into one clean pipeline - Automate follow‑up so bids don’t ghost and jobs don’t slip through the cracks - See jobs + expected cash 30 days ahead so you stop riding the feast‑or‑famine rollercoaster Last year I used these same systems to help a guy go from $0 to ~$150k/month in 6 months. I’m not sharing theory; this system was designed on what already works. What you get now (before it ever launches) OPS ENGINE is not public yet. Bear Claw will run on it first.
