Alex C. is the founder of Great Hustles and the operator behind several metro Atlanta service businesses: pressure washing and exterior cleaning, a TV mounting company that has completed thousands of installs across nine metro areas, and a seasonal holiday lighting crew.
The guides on this site are drawn from those businesses directly: the published price ladders, the equipment on the trucks, and the mistakes that cost real money. Where a guide covers something outside our own operations, it says so plainly.
Alex writes every guide the same way: startup budget first, pricing model second, gear list last, and no income fantasies anywhere.
