Travis;
AC has a course. Its his wilderness training package. It also includes a business plan you were looking for. Contact him for details. Its not cheap, but from what I've heard, its worth it.

 Travis, people here have offered to train you for free. One guy said he would even pay you while you worked with him. What happened?

Ted I am Willing to come spend the Time with you and Work PM your Address Please

Anything To become a Professional Roof Cleaner And Be one of the Best in the Roof Cleaning Industry I believe is worth It I just wanna be able to provide great professional service I don't wanna go do work and not know what I am doing,It Can build a BAD rep I have seen it happen to so many people? Jump into things and not be able to provide professional work it can bite you in the butt

AC's course paid for itself in chemical savings alone.  Let alone all of the rest of the info he taught and gave me.  He cuts time off of what it takes to build a buisness.  No trial or error, just the facts man.

AC will come to you as part of his wilderness course. He'll help you directly in your own market. If you can afford it I'd definitely take these guys advice and go for it! I'd first work on getting all the equipment together though.

Take ACs course for the business side (its worth it!!!) and come to Houston for the technical side. Ill show you the ropes.

Travis, all the training offered is a wonderful idea and Scott's is offered free. The trick is what can you afford at this stage. If you are not starting till '11 keep studying on both sides of the fence, business/roofs. I'll bet there is all kinds of info in the college library. Also, OJT is a wonderful thing!!!

We used to offer a paid spray course here, but I have stopped it to focus on RCIA and PWNA training courses and also Deluxe's training courses. The opportunity Ted is offering is the best for you right now. It will require you to make a commitment that won't break your wallet but still cost you in time and travel. This kind of action will help solidify your position as a serious business person to yourself. If you are already going the owner operator route than spray training is what you need. Pick up all the business experience you can in and out of the industry.
I hope you try these free methods to help you better understand what your doing and what you can be doing.
