Make Money: 2 Ways:
By your own LABORS... By your own IDEAS
THE FIRST WAY you can make money: "BY YOUR OWN LABORS":
1) About charging the customer: * Charge by an estimate for the whole project: be fair, but MAKE A PROFIT! * Charge by the hour: ASK around your area what they charge per hour, then go below that amount. * Charge by the number of rods used, PLUS a minimum charge. (EXAMPLE: $5 per rod, plus $20 minimum charge)(adjust pricing for the current market).
2) Advertise: * Newspaper. * Create a website for yourself. (See "How I did this site" via the "Navbar" at left). * Craigslist: under "services": Anyone that emails you is ALREADY wanting a job done! * Buy a stick-on magnetic sign to advertise your services: Keep it SHORT: What you provide & how to contact you. * Create your own business card. (see mine below).
3) Be fair / Be honest / Delight them by going the extra mile!
4) Take at least one quarter of a welding class for direct supervision. (Unless you're already a decent welder!).
5) Got a good idea? Make a quick $25 by entering my "Idea of The Month" contest: (SEE "SECOND WAY TO MAKE MONEY", below my business card)

THE SECOND WAY to make money: "BY YOUR OWN IDEAS":
My "IDEA of THE MONTH CONTEST":
