Equipment Ladder
Does anyone have advise on starting a small painting contracting business?
I am employed full-time but need extra income. I have done a lot of painting on my own houses over the years and have all the equipment (sprayers, tarps, ladders, power washer, etc.). What I want to know is how to estimate pricing for jobs and what the best way is to get my name out there. Also, do you thing it would be a major problem if I could pretty much only do the painting on weekends?
The best routes to take are to research the process of starting a business as well as the industry you’re interested in.
I recommend checking out the SBA, Entrepreneur, The Start Up Journal & Nolo. All 4 are great informational resources for the new/small business owner. I posted links for you in the source box.
Associations may be a good avenue to explore as well. These organizations will address many of the thoughts, questions and concerns you’ll inevitably have as well as many you haven’t anticipated yet. See the source box for some relevant links.
Research, research, research – this cannot be stressed enough. Read as much as you can about the industry. Here are some book titles that are relevant:
* Paint Contractor’s Manual by Dave Matis
* Painter’s Handbook by William McElroy
* Smart Business for Contractors : A Guide to Money and the Law (For Pros, By Pros) by Jim Kramon
There are plenty of free informational resources out there. Check the source box for links to articles.
Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!
