Had a preliminary phone conversation with Job A, they may not go with a QC. Now they are looking at a team leader type to roof and Qc at the same time. Not too keen on the idea of doing production work again. With a "team leader" title, they may attempt to pay less.
Job C: Had a phone conversation this a.m. and it seems to me that all of the work will be out of town for quit some time (somewhere in Texas)as there is little to do here (pac NW)
Job B: Had a sit down with the owner this morning, he has a long term plan for his company and thinks I can play a major part in what he will want to do. Still offering the $500 sign on bonus, but because of the economy, he will be adding to his overhead. He still does not want to pay more than $20 an hr, I used the $24 hr job offer as leverage. I asked him to meet me in the middle at $22 and keep everything on the table, and that I will leave to talk to the wife ablut it. He accepted the agreement.
Ok Robby last offer! lol 20% of all repair sales you make. An additional 20% if you perform the work yourself. But i have roofers to do the ones you dont want to do. Or don't have time to do. Prove your the man for the job and within 6 months you'll have company truck, cell phone, health insurance, your own office and a 401k. Guaranteed minimum pay every week rain, sleet or shine. Did I mention a nice Christmas Bonus every year? lol P.S. We do between 200-300 repairs per year, work in the high end areas of the suburbs only, most jobs are referrals and we aint cheap. lol
"Willie"....Where are you located? :dry:
Northern Alabama somewhere?
Southern suburbs of Birmingham, Alabama.( Lots of white collar professionals who are our primary customers) Duties would include selling repairs then either communicating with my roofers to get them done or do them yourself and any warranty issues that may arise. We warranty all repairs for 1 year. So no liquid flashing. We bid everything to do the high end repair not the cheap quick fix. That is what most all of our customers want as they live in nice homes/subdivisions and keep them up well. A fair amount of steep slope jobs would be involved. Most roofers around here are not too keen so the job is definately secure.
Sounds like Heaven Willie!
Not exactly heaven but it pays the bills! :)
What part of the NW? I am in Seattle. It is slow but the friends I have in the roofing business are all busy. Lanny
I am in Tacoma...too far away from Alabama...but a short skip from Seattle.
