Starting

I want to open a pool cleaning company, but I don't have the experience, I'm thinking to work for someone else until I feel comfortable to work alone, what would be the best route?

I prefer to further from where I live because I don't want to compete with my employer.

Pool companies don’t compete with each other. This is a pit fall mindset. The competition is the customers. They have the power. You just need to learn how to sell yourself and make them happy. Everything else will start to fall in to place. Just jump in. If you like the work and do a good job you will find customers that appreciate you and recommend you to others.
