new business how do you price jobs

welcome, I usually price clean ups @ 3X regular mow/trim rate. If they have a lot of junk (washers, tires, junk) price accordingly. (dump fees, fuel etc)

try and figure out the amount of $$ the job is going to cost you..in gas, etc.. and then try and figure out how profit you and your partner want to make, according to how much work the job is/ how many hours..some people use an hourly rate, some just go by the job, or a combo. of both, everyone's different

Yea, do what they said. Figure out what you think you want to charge and then add 25% to that. Most people starting out think they work faster than they really do. Adding 25% helps to buffer your mistakes in the beginning.
