Get deposits
Just had two people cancel on me after they told me to show up whenever I’m ready. Then two days or a week later they cancel.

Canceled for the walk through or for the actual job? For jobs I require a 50% down-payment on anything under $5,000 and do a $3,000 down for anything over and a daily pay as work progresses.

That's okay, small jobs or not, start implementing this ASAP! One of the many things recommended by the OWNR OPS program.
How are you responding to your leads?
I am a new member Veteran owner operator trying to get my way in to the market area. We are running payed adds now and have boosted our following and interactions about 100% just not getting quality out of our leads. Any ad on how to respond to the leads. Are y’all just calling everyone of them, or are you respond to the listed emails and waiting for a counter response? Any advice from the group?

You can roughly figure out of every 10-20 you'll get one job. Accept it and just know it's a numbers game, but yes, call, text and email every lead. Every now and then I'll get a few jobs in a row.
Acerage discount
I have locked in my pricing but was curious at what point to you guys give volume discounts and how much. Is it regular price for a job up to 3 acres and then you discount from there on for volume or where do you start? And then what is a typical reduction in price? 15%? Less, more?

10 acres or more for me gets you a 10% discount. This works for me. Some people might even start at 5 acre
A real job walk tomorrow!
Super excited 15 acres. Some trees are staying. Hopefully I can land my first job.
