Progress update from Elevated Land Solutions

Hey everyone. It's been a full week and a half, and we're doing it with a newborn in the house, so I'm pretty happy with how much got done.

The biggest thing was filming. We shot our first batch of content, 15 clips, and I honestly couldn't have done it without my wife Kate. She held the camera, reset takes, and kept me on script on very little sleep. Watching the raw footage get turned into finished posts was a good feeling. It made the whole thing feel real. I also settled on a simple rule: whatever I film this month fills next month. That way, if a shoot gets bumped by a rough night with the baby, nothing falls apart. Everything still gets queued for me to approve in one weekly batch, so nothing posts under my name without my eyes on it.

I also have to thank this group for the suggestion to get the base of a social media presence out there before the actual launch, when we start running paid ads. By the time the ads start, there will already be a real feed behind them. The website goes live in November too, so the two will launch together.

The other decision was the CDL, I'll take an accelerated behind-the-wheel course in Texas in December while we're visiting my wife's family, then take the NH test.

I also built out how we'll track every customer, from the first call through the finished job, following much of the advice of Austins trainings. Each customer gets their own folder, and call transcripts and site-visit notes get filed into it automatically, so nothing slips through.
