Hey all, I started a tree removal/trimming business last summer and it quickly grew into a stable, well-paying profession. Problem is, I'm in my 30's and know I can't be our main climber forever. I'd like to build up 1-2 crews (preferably 2) that are safe and efficient without me there so I can be out selling new clients, getting new contracts. I have too much business to handle + idk how to schedule out new clients when I'm never sure how long our current project will take. any advice? tyvm

I'm working on a pitch deck, for an event that I'm planning next year for my wine brand called OBA, but I'm struggling to come up with sponsorship ideas.

I don't want to go the traditional route of creating tiers, because I feel like you should do most of the things in tiers regardless on how much they donated. Can anyone assist with coming up with some ideas?

Also, does anyone know how to create a virtual swag bag?

Thanks in advance.
