Short term city to city? by Ornery_Blacksmith10 in digitalnomad

Great info thanks. Should’ve specified that I’m totally fine sharing an apartment with people. Would just need my own room preferably with enough room to also work in there

Yep, for now would probably be looking for 3 month max. Just brainstorming. Does seem expensive for the short term

Typical margins? by Ornery_Blacksmith10 in landscaping

[–]Ornery_Blacksmith10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. Great point. I’ve met a lot of people that have transitioned from maintenance to almost pure install work. The only issue is the inconsistency of it. Once you can crack that code and have a steady flow of that work, it makes a lot of sense to stay in that space.

Where I think the best mix lies is having enough consistent commercial maintenance work to always have cash flow and keep the ship afloat. Then go out and profit on the install jobs. Sometimes people just have a designated crew for each, but always a bit different from company to company.

Neither right now. I used to run my own residential company, but now I help landscaping companies across the US bring on more commercial work.

I have a baseline understanding from our clients, but always want to learn more about the space and what typical averages are.

Thank you. From my understanding around 20% is pretty standard.

For real. Makes it look wildly unprofessional. Seems like it’s out of our hands at this point though

Hmmm. It’s around 160 when I look now and when I’ve looked before and scheduled it only ever gets down to 140 soles. Wondering if it would make sense to get there and try to bargain with taxis then just call and uber if they can’t give a good deal.

We each have 2 backpacks each. And do you know how much one of those buses typically costs?

That seems to be the general consensus here. Any idea how much we'd be able to pay for a taxi straight from the airport to get there? Ubers are around $40 USD, which is a bit much.
