Hey Everyone, Would anyone be willing to share some mulching/ brush clearing content I can use to stitch in for some Facebook ads? I’m starting from zero and trying to gauge my market/ get some jobs lined up before renting or buying a setup.

@Ron Mattson greatly appreciated, I actually just got my first job scheduled yesterday and I’m buying my machine today. Starting off with a 3 day job but she had 80 acres total she wants to work on throughout the year. Going to be getting lots of good content going now. But truly, thanks for replying and trying to lend a hand!
Bamboo
Anyone have any experience with a bamboo forest? I've got three acres of really dense bamboo. You can barely squeeze through it. The stalks are about the size of the base of a baseball bat, 1.5 to 2 inches in diameter. I have no idea what a rate could be on this. I'm thinking a half acre a day, but again, no experience. Anyone who has any insight, I would appreciate

i've heard they can get stringy, and wrapped around the drum.

@Billy Malady welcome!
$24k in First 2.5 Weeks of operation!
Hi All! Just wanted to update and wrap up my long saga on here for everyone. I know it's a lot to read through, but if you're in the position I was a few months ago, wondering if this is all possible, I hope you can find a little motivation in this to give it a try. - April 10th I took possession of my new CAT 275xe. I finally got out of the dealer at around Noon and drove straight to my first job. Risky not having ran it before, but you gotta learn somehow! - spent almost every week day in the machine on jobs up until today trying to get caught up on all the work I booked before even having the machine (thanks to facebook ads) - have just a couple jobs left with paid deposits, finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. - grabbed some good before/after pics and vids to start creating new content for updating socials and new ads - 5 5-Star Reviews achieved on new Google Business Profile and counting Since April 10th, I have completed and received payment on $23,875 worth of work with an average job ticket of $3,410. The rest of this week and next week will be spent finishing up the final 2 jobs with deposits which will be for $9,875 worth of work. I hope someone gets a little value out of all this to see what is possible. A month ago, I was working a $90k a year W2 behind a computer all day. Miserable. Now, I'm in woods all day tearing things up and enjoying life so much more and making a great living. While I don't plan to run this wide open all the time, it is nice to see what is possible if you truly wanted to grind away and make hay when you can. Just don't get burned out! I am posting before/after vids of one of my favorite jobs I completed on a random Tuesday, and the rewarding joy you can bring with this work. I did this job for a couple who had inherited this property from a passing parent. They wanted to build their retirement home on this property. Both husband and wife were in tears after seeing the finished property (in a good way!) He said "I haven't been able to walk this property like this since I was a 6 year old boy. If it was Friday, I'd pack the kids and tent up and we'd camp out here all weekend."

I decided to start with stump grinding to build some cash. Wish to be like you in the next 6-12 months

@Frank Steiner you as well!
Process wins!
Just wanted to share what following the process looks like! If people in here are on the fence about making this their full time job, I made the jump in early March to go full time into this. We had our first baby in October and my wife was very skeptical/nervous, dare I say excited, about the whole idea of me quitting. I have been bouncing between jobs about every 8-10 months, and this last job was 90k salary with killer benefits, but I was battling depression, low energy, and just wasn’t myself. I sat down with my wife, showed her my plan, and I went all in. In Austin’s starter scorecard I had a goal of my first 3 months going 10, 20, 30k in revenue. Currently, around 3 weeks into April I will hit 60k in revenue, which is 6 weeks ahead of my plan. Long story short, it works. I look in this group every day for motivation and I see some great people doing amazing things. Asking questions. Taking feedback. Moving forward. Generating results. @Austin Gray ’s community here is fantastic, and I can’t help but feel thankful and alive this Easter weekend! I feel that we are all hard nosed, hard working individuals, and I pray that we all find peace, success and something to pour our work ethic into! Big things coming in 2026 for this group!

@Jt Mahon Thank you. I really need to get her educated in this too. Try and have her be my first point of contact while I’m out and about to make sure we have a good speed to lead.
