Mike Andes (presenter) emphasizes that the extra training days teach systems and tools that have been tested and are highly effective for growing a lawn-care business. He strongly recommends — but does not require — using the Command Center (for scalable operations and cash-flow benefits) and Service Autopilot (recommended software to access built automations). He invites questions and challenges, notes the methods were tested in Augusta and nationwide with other course members, and demonstrates how detailed customer notes and a recorded job video would be entered into the Command Center.

I can promise you that everything that's taught in extra days has been tested and I believe in 110% and we use it. It's not like I'm making this stuff up. I promise you that if these systems that we're going to teach aren't followed, they work. And there's a certain obvious level of trust with you guys coming in so early. And so I appreciate that. But if there's any level of trust you have to me, I promise you that the things we're teaching that are different work. So whether it be the Command center, like the comm center is game changer for growing your business. It's scalable to the utmost. It's great for cash flow because you don't have to pay someone when they're not working. It's fantastic service. Autopilot. I think it's the best software available to our industry right now. You don't have to use it. I highly recommend you do. It's the way that you'll be able to use all the automations that we've built. I highly, highly recommend it. These are things that like we're going to talk about and if you're like weighing it out, like should I do this, should I not? I promise you try it out and it will work. Nothing that we're teaching here today or Friday or Saturday is things that we're guessing on. These are things that I've tested, at least in Augusta, but most, most importantly around the country with other course members. So if you have a question about that, you're like, I don't believe that's true. Please ask a question, challenge me on this stuff because most of it has been battle tested and I can give you an answer why that, why it's working or not working. So I just wanted to say that I do not enforce that you use Surface Autopilot. I do not enforce that you use Command Center. I do not enforce those things. But I highly, highly recommend things, otherwise I would not be making them as resources. Whatever we do here is going to be number one tested and number two, making sure it's in your best interest. So please, you know, if you have a question, let me know. I can probably give you the answer why it's working that way because it's been tested. So.
Right here and then this is how you would be giving us the information. See, these are the same way we did the notes this morning, the comments, and we're going to be doing them on our phone this afternoon. But this is how they come into the command center. Enter. Just like this. All right, so title. Pool. Weeds and garden beds. Trim and shape. Lavender bushes. Again, very detailed notes of exactly what the Customer wanted. Last one video job recorded for Service Crew Supplies. Ep. 40.
So I'm going to shoot this video as if it was real, and then I'll send it to the office. All right, we're out.
