Plaster Man Training:
Individuals come in from around the world to train with me.
Here is what I offer:"Plaster Repair": I show how to repair cracks and holes, on ceilings and walls on both smooth and textured surfaces. I also show how to make $750.00 per day doing this type of work as a business.
"Resurfacing": Many older homes have cracked or damaged surfaces. I show how stabilize and secure them, and then use plaster to completely resurface them and give them a totally new look. "Veneer Plastering": This is a 1/8" thick layer of plaster that is applied over plaster board in new homes and additions. I show how to apply a base coat, and then how to apply a smooth or textured finish.
WHO I TRAIN
There are basically two types of individuals I train. First there are the homeowners and DIYers who are interested in learning the 'how to' skills in doing plaster repair work. And then there are the contractors, individuals and crews that are interested in learning the 'how to make money doing plaster repair work. They either want to learn how to do this full time, or as an 'add on' business to what they already do, such as painters, wallpaper hangers or drywall finishers.
WHERE I TRAIN
There are basically two places I do training:
My location: I do most of my training here in the Peoria, Illinois area. Most people travel to Peoria and stay in a hotel during the training. I pick them up at the hotel each morning and we train one-on-one all day and then I bring them back to the hotel.
Your location: I also fly in to do training for entire crews at your location.
HOMEOWNER TRAINING
Individuals who are just interested in learning how to do plaster repair work usually come in for two days of training. They learn what tools and materials are used, how to mix them and the proper way of applying and finishing them.
FOR PROFIT TRAINING
Those who are interested in the 'profit' side of things usually come in for three days of training. They get the two days of 'how to' training, plus a third day where they learn how to estimate and bid jobs, learn how to communicate well with customers to avoid problems, and the specific marketing techniques that will help them stay busy year round. If you are interested in receiving personal training, or training for your entire crew, simply contact me via e-mail or call me directly. I'll get you all the details on the costs when I find out what type of training you're interested in.
THE BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY
People often ask me: Is there really money to be made doing plaster repair work? My answer is 'YES'! That's the reason I got into training. I have made a great living doing this type of work, and I felt it was something I wanted to share, especially in these tough economic times. It's always bothered me to see people struggle to make ends meet. I know how it feels because I've been there myself. But plaster repair changed all that. In order to profit from it, a person has to know three things:
#1: The techniques of how to do the repairs
#2: Where to get the professional grade materials and tools used to do them
#3: How to get top dollar for the work you do ($750.00 per day or more!)
I'm going to be very honest with you: Plaster repair can be hard work. But the rewards you get financially make the effort worthwhile.
TO HELP YOU DECIDE
Is plaster repair for you?To help you decide, here's what I call the "Plaster Man Dozen"; the 12 Reasons I think you should consider getting in on this Golden Opportunity:
This is by far one of the fastest and best ways of making money you'll ever find. Almost every single home in the country needs some type of repair work.
Every job is different, so if you like variety, this might be just what you've been looking for.
Men and women, young and old, can do the work.
Flexible Schedule: Work morning, afternoons, days, evenings, weekends. It's your call!
There's work wherever you go, so you can move wherever you want (plus it's indoor work year round!)
It's a small start up cost to get your own business up and running.
The materials are relatively inexpensive, so the profit margin is high.
It doesn't take a lot of tools or equipment to do the work (you can literally work out of the trunk of your car!)
Build as big a business as you like, or work by yourself (as I've done for years).
It's a perfect 'add on' business - you don't have to drop everything you're doing to get involved in some "risky business".
It's practically recession proof, and competition is virtually non-existent!
IS THIS THE 'BREAK' YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR?
Are you searching for a change, for a better way to make ends meet? Do you want a job you can take pride in? Want to learn how to make in an afternoon what it takes some a week to earn? Do you have a business already, but want to 'add on' a dynamite system that will bring in an additional $25-30,000 per year, maybe more? Do you run a large crew now and dream of cutting down to just a one person operation? Are you a woman who has determination and drive to own your own business, but never found the right opportunity? Do you work for someone else, but feel you could strike out on your own if you just had someone to show you how? Do you need to make money NOW, without a huge investment? If you answered YES to any of these questions, then you will benefit from my training. I look forward hearing from you and helping you learn this great trade!
Note: If you are interested in learning plastering skills, but cannot come in for personal training, you may like the training videos I offer that are located under the "Plaster Products" area of this site.
