Hey Z!
Give the guy a list of satisfied customers AD. |

Hiya Zman Happy Easter! That doesn't really work in this business Pol. It would be kinda like a car mechanic offering a list of satisfied customers. It's not as if anyone would invite you to have a look at their repaired refrigerator... |
|
|
|
Yeah, I know.
|
|
|
|
Although I think the meeting is just to kind of check me out to see if I know what the heck I'm doing. They don't have any work for me immediately but they want a go-to guy to call when they need appliance work done.
I need to finish filling out that dang W9 form too... |
|
|
|
The meeting sounds promising. Wish you the best of luck.
I don't have a license, whats a w-9? |
|
|
|
That's just a tax form. At the end of the year they give me a form 1099 detailing all the money they've paid me. Makes it a little easier for everyone to do their taxes. Essentially it's just a form telling them my business name and my tax ID # Yeah it's nice having landlords and businesses like this lined up. Naturally they get a discount but it's regular business since they have numerous appliances. Some apartment complexes might have a couple hundred of everything. And tenants naturally break stuff. |
|
|
|
Yeah, apartments out here are usually high turn over and slobs.
|
|
|
|
It all depends on the neighborhood. Higher end apartments might have better tenants but then they also have more appliances. |
|
|
|
Thats cash ain't it?
|
|
|
|
Hey, anything that's work is golden. The only problem with businesses like this is sometimes you gotta wait forever before they send you payment. There's an apartment outfit I did work for last month that still hasn't paid me. Been waiting since the 19th for my $145. |
|
|
|
Yeah, I have a 60 day payment maximum. After that I file for a commercial lean on the property. Usually works for me.
|
|
|
|
I send a reminder after 30 days with a warning about late fees. Some of these places have to submit the bills to a higher office somewhere then the bill has to be approved by some manager then sent to the accounting department who will get around to it eventually. |
