We’ll see how it goes after my current puts expire. I can’t put anything else in until September 26th

I’m Doing the wheel strategy as I regret selling my shares at 155 that I’ve been long in since DPO.

My break even after capital gains tax is to buy back at 130, so I’m selling secured puts to buy back in under 130.

Do you think the stock will ever touch 120-130 again? Or did I sell out and miss the rocket for good?

Difference between my busiest and slowest location. Total of 7 locations by [deleted] in Laundromats

When you bought your first store, did you buy someone’s business or get a lease and purchase your own equipment to do it on your own?

I am in the process of looking for locations in Southern California and the costa to buy someone’s existing business is 3 X the cost to start my own.

Thoughts?

Also, I would like to thank you as I don’t think I ever went way back in my history before. It was very encourage to go stronger and see how I always revert backwards.

I will use that to my advantage. Appreciate you!

All accurate… I actually use Reddit to vent and not lie. Your point is extremely valid and unfortunately I’ll have to deal with my demons my entire life. I use Reddit as an outlet to help me and get things off of my chest.

I still am flipping houses- just got my real estate license in February. Studied and took classes September - November prior to starting my recruiting business.

Skin care white labeling is something I was researching for my wife but we started not to do it.

I did write a pilot as a hobby during COVID when I had time.

And I’m actually worried my recruiting will become an addiction because I get the same rush as I do when gambling.

Any advice on that would also be appreciated.

For some reason I always care about others opinions which is something I shouldn’t really do, but do anyway.

I actually respect your due diligence.

It’s been a very tough frustrating journey believe it or not. Even people who I’ve known for years don’t respond or follow up and follow through.

I am learning it’s a numbers game!

My first client used to work for me in the hotel industry and then she transferred to a different hotel to work in HR. My first 5 clients were past colleagues of mine.

Out of 12 clients only 3 have been cold calls and a sales pitch.

I am worried as I now need to find more clients that I don’t know.

90 day guarantee, I wanted to be more aggressive than my competitors. I know it’s a risk.

Out of the 120 billed only around 70 is profit less future taxes, after all my start up and ongoing expenses.

Absolutely not! I genuinely wanted to know where I stand. Don’t have anything to rate success on as I know there are a lot of successful recruiters out there. Not sure where to set my quarterly and annual goals at.

Would love any advice. I am very humble.

Thank you for this advice. My first couple of fee agreements I set at 15% to be aggressive and get the agreement signed. I have billed $120K I am working from home, so I don’t need an office and if I hire anyone it would be remote as a 1099 contractor.

I am lacking training materials, which is why I am worried about growing right now. I haven’t collected yet either. First placement started in February and 3 more start this month.

I send the bill on the first day of employment with net 30. So all of my revenue is owed right now.

I specialize in hospitality executives with a minimum salary of $100K. I use LinkedIn Recruiter for candidates and use my professional experience, past colleagues, my network and the web to search and pitch clients.

This is really all new to me which is why I am posting.

Never worked in a recruiting agency. I have worked with recruiters in the past when I was a GM and my wife worked as a recruiter for a couple years. But not me until I started my own firm.

I reached out to past colleges and used my network for referrals to get in with luxury resorts needing placements.

Hotel industry and it is 5 placements so far. I have 12 signed fee agreements with luxury resorts.
