What's Included...
Chapter
10 – Costing-Out Aquarium Set-up
We’ve created a detailed list of components and costs from which you
will derive your final proposal price. A sample cost sheet is included
in the Aquatech Business Plan. This will also allow you to add your
mark-up (profit) directly into your selling price.
Chapter
11 – Selecting Equipment
Proper equipment selection requires many considerations. For
example, you should consider the products efficiency, reliability,
serviceability as well as the health and well being of the specific
species of animal you wish to keep in each aquatic environment. This
chapter goes into greater detail regarding proper equipment selection.
Chapter
12 – Installation and Set-up
Now is your time to shine…..Time to show off your professionalism
and perform your new installation. We’ve included our 16-point
installation checklist for you to perform a neat, organized, efficient
and professional installation.
Chapter
13 – Aquascaping
Aquascaping is probably one of the most noticeable aspects of the entire
aquarium set-up. The Aquatech Business Plan covers all the different
aspects of tropical fresh water, marine saltwater “fish-only” tanks and
marine “coral reef” tanks and the related maintenance requirements of
each type.
Chapter
14 – Enrollment Kits
Now that your new clients’ tank is installed, it’s time to enroll
them into your regularly scheduled maintenance program. We’ll show you
how to send out a very professional, inexpensive and easy to prepare
enrollment kit. Once again, this will convey a serious, professional
image of you and your business.
Chapter
15 – New Customer
After you’ve sent out the enrollment kit and received a signed
contract with the first payment,
you officially have a new maintenance customer!! Organizational
skills now play an important role in the future success of your
business. The Business Plan includes recommended procedures making your
office function smoothly and efficiently.
Less time doing paperwork means
more time to focus on your customers’ aquarium maintenance
needs.
Chapter
16 – Aquarium Maintenance
We are in the SERVICE business. Your clients will be paying you for
your knowledge, professionalism, timely service and respect to both the
fish and clientele. This section addresses awareness and perspective
regarding both your abilities and the quality of each and every service
call you perform.
Chapter
17 – Routine Maintenance Equipment
Every service call will require certain maintenance equipment. If
you already have a tank at home, you’ve probably already got enough
basic materials to start servicing aquariums. Some other jobs, like
larger tanks or tanks in hard to access areas, like the 33rd
floor of a hi-rise, may require additional equipment. Only purchase
specialized equipment on an as-needed basis. For example, buy what you
need as you acquire jobs which require such equipment. We’ll provide you
a list of equipment we use on all of our trucks and explanations of
their respective uses.
Chapter
18 – The Service Call and Maintenance Checklist
To reduce and/or eliminate the unexpected, we’ve developed a 30
point service checklist and tracking system for every service call you
perform. You may not immediately recognize the importance of this, but
once you start servicing 50, 100 or 200 clients per month, there is
virtually no way for anyone to remember every detail of what your
customer said or requested for their next service visit. Tracking and
making some brief notes at every service call are very important
techniques for long-term success and the satisfaction of each and every
client.
Time to get started and go clean some fish tanks!!!
Who needs a job when
you can do
what you love???
If you love tropical fish, the way I do……and you
enjoy making lots of money (like I do), then there is no better
combination!!
It’s easy, fun, profitable
and
IN DEMAND!!

"I thank you whole-heartedly for the Fishes-to-Riches (Aquatech) business plan and for all the time you provided to answer my aquarium maintenance and business questions. The Aquatech plan is more complete and clearly well-tested than other plans I purchased, and was undoubtedly well worth the money.
