Robin discusses the importance of profit, marketing and if the trade is "really for you"
I wanted to share a letter that I received here lately. It reads in part:
I am a plasterer in the Augusta, Ga., area with about 20 years experience. While most of our work consists of exterior stucco, we are occasionally called on for interior plaster repairs ?. I enjoy your articles and agree that this is an art form as well as a dying art. Other than hospitals, prisons and the few-and -far-between house or church applications in new construction, the apprentices coming up in today's work environment are not being given the opportunity to really learn this application of their trade.
