Green Growth Method Step #4 - MDL Episode 74

We’ve spent the past few weeks introducing our 5 step Green Growth Method.

 

If you haven’t listened to episode #70 where we do a quick rundown of all the steps you can listen to it here.

Today’s topic is Step 4 - Estimating with Confidence!

 

We’ve talked about estimating in a couple of other episodes

All the way back in episode #8, we talked about the 5 estimating systems that are most often used in the landscaping industry.  

These are systems that we have available in our Academy. 

We didn’t invent them, but we did very conveniently put them into ready to use spreadsheets so you don’t have to figure them out yourself.  They are plug and chug, no calculator required lol

 

The five estimating systems that we are referring to are:

• Single Overhead Recovery System (SORS)
• Duel overhead Recovery System (DORS)
• Multiple Overhead Recovery System (MORS)
• Overhead Profit Per Hour System (OPPH)

 

What we cover today's episode is how closely Step 4, Estimating With Confidence, in the Green Growth Method is tied to Step 3, Know Your Numbers.

 

You can’t put the cart before the horse.  If you want to learn how to estimate based on the actual numbers for your business, then you have to complete Step 3 before Step 4.  These two are completely tied together.

Wouldn't it be great to have your estimating all figured out before the 2020 growing season?!?
