VERY basic info

Had a few good pointers. Thought it was going to be a little more in depth. Glad I didn't pay more than $3.16.

Great information

I thought this was from the start to the end perfect. I don’t think I was left with one unanswered question, or at least they pointed you in the direction for you to find the answer.

Great amount of info in such a short time!

There is tons of good info here from an experienced businessman. I learned a lot! I appreciate the author's honesty when it comes to charging people and being on time. He sounds like a stand-up guy. I like that there wasn't a lot of fluff in this book, just the basics that you need to know to get started with this business. I'd be interested to hear more of this author's work in the future. The narrator was easy to listen to as well.

Excellent Guide!

I found this audiobook very helpful for forming my handyman business, as the author leaves no stone unturned and covers everything you need to know. I like that I can choose my hours and be my boss, giving me a sense of freedom.

The thought of starting a handyperson business from nothing seems daunting, but the advice in this book puts me at ease, as the author sets you up with all the tips you need. Examples include the tools you need, the general rates to charge, and what payment types to accept.

I probably gained the most value from the chapter on advertising yourself, as I would find this the most challenging, and the book warns you of what not to do, which will cost you more money than you make. Overall, it is an excellent book and the only one you will need to get started in your own handyman business!
