Thanks for the encouragment everybody. Let me just say this; I haven't sold a job yet. BP/ Home Depot have sold the residetial jobs so far and I have had to travel 80 to 100 miles each way to do the installs, but the experience has been priceless. As for the commercial jobs, you have to be set up to do these. I only worked as an installer on both projects. Both were public works type projects that require high insurance and bonding levels. I think the one thing that has made the difference for me is that I kept looking for opportunities and didn't think I was set ( still don't ). I believe this business is going to blossom within 5 years and those that are in position at that time are going to be the heavy hitters. Remember that the economy is still in the toilet and you have to just make it through until it gets better. In the future those who started in these times will be the success stories.
