hello. My friends welcome dishonest status with this is crystal about. I have a pressing question for years, begin today when was the last You were in Dallas, Texas and found yourself in need of some emergency marimba us! Yes, I did marimbas, as in musical instrument good news. I have a solution for you next time, you're in that situation, You know who to Call- or actually it's not me- the person you'll hear about in this episode has a solution for you. When my favorite episodes of the new year, it's all about a father afore, who starts marimba flipping business to fund his child college tuition, you could say this story hits all the right notes. You could say it's music to our ears and you could say it's coming right up after the sponsor message. Aruba, costly lackey, is known

danger to the world of side. Hustles he's had many plough working his day job as a programmer, an icy manager among others. He launched a number of visitor bureau sites in his surrounding area of Texas in Oklahoma. These sites feature things like real estate listings, vacation, runnels and fishing guides. Also acquired an online drone for him and grew into a thriving business. One of the top drone communities in the world several years ago, casting aside hustles, reproving, lucrative and required more of his time So he decided to take the leap and walk away from a ninety five life. He is now a full time hustler, but with many projects he's also a father, a for kids and at the time our story takes place. His oldest was starting college, you didn't, have enough money safer tuition, we didn't want to go into debt. So what would you do? He would start another project, something that could help him pay for that tuition not run around the same time. His younger sign and caught the percussion bug as a middle school student casting receiving

If the instructor he would have to either by or rent a marimba for his son to practise always the support apparent Caskey sized up his options, the wreck, and rental facility was an hour long drive away, and this magic marimba cost sixty dollars a month threat. Plus there was a terribly long contract to fill out and you had to love the four and a half foot, thirty five pound Maria. Hum? He thought there had to be a better way. He could get cookies deliver to his door in fifteen minutes. Why not? Marimba is surely and the only one, but this problem Cassie decided to test this hypothesis. He wanted to offer a better alternative to parents than the one that was presented to him, so he jumped on Craig. Invite five used marimba as five hundred hours each as one does. His plain was to clean them, picked them up and rent them out. He figured if the business failed. He could just turn around and seldom again he spent eight dollars per. A name built aside himself and D W Marimba was born. Casting would charge thirty five dollars a month and delivered to students, homes for free how's. It

now what has now been in business for a year and a schedule to had three thousand dollars in monthly income. So in other words its worked out pretty well. Here are a few details Everybody out there who wants to get an marimba racket casta usually keeps around five. It Members on hand, at all times, he buys more in the summer when it gets them cheaper, because there's more than market when students finish go and if you're wondering whether marimba renters come from aside from all of you, of course, there's gonna be a russian remembers in Dallas. After this episode will cast. He has a couple of approaches. One is Google adwords lots of people go on in search, marimba rental whenever they need to rent a marimba crazy. How that works and other effective strategy has been sending quarterly emails to the one hundred percussion in band instructors in his area. In those emails he introduces or reintroduces himself. Let them know that his business is growing and includes linked to the many positive reviews he received from his customers. His goal is to have every precaution instructor in the area pushing parents to his service,

so far he's been able to handle deliveries himself because he only rents the smaller three octave marimba, as these can be taught in the back of his jeep. No doubt known as the marimba mobile with the seats down, you stack them about forty five high with cardboard between each one student give them a member for one or two years. You don't have to worry delivering are picking up very often has her what's next, while he is determined to find an answer to the question that HANS many side hustlers, who become full time business You might call it an existential dilemma to scale or not to scale should he by delivery vans and higher drivers, should contract out to an existing delivery service, but with drivers who can't answer customer service questions about them. Rumours or should I just can't to grow slowly while handling his own deliberates. Time will tell, but I have a feeling how come out. Ok as long as he stays in tune with what people need

so this is hands down. One of my favorite stories of the year so far have been when my parents, reason many minds, I personally when I moved to Dallas, so I can rent marimba from chastity and fortunately I don't think he rents them by mail just yet, but maybe in the future. Maybe somebody else out their wants to court of that market and notice in the story, his process and how this comes to be so he encountered. This problem is annoying to go driving our pay too much money to place. It doesn't necessarily provide great customer service to rent this instrument for his middle school kid now. Secondly, this instrument is uncommon. There's not a lot of competition out there. At the same time, its common enough that there are enough potential customers to make it worth while to even though there are a huge amount of people playing the marimba. This is an instrument that in every high school music class, every high school marching band. So you know that there are customers out there. Now also there's a proven pathway to reach those customers, because, let's say you need to rent such an instrument. What would you do? I'm betting that you

Google Marimba rental in your city, or you would ask the ban teacher what to do and Cassie has covered both intake points. So simple marks working very well three thousand dollars a month now in recurring, marimba rental income. This is what it's all about. My I hope you enjoy the story I enjoyed working on it.
