Just shared this on Facebook with a note to parents and grandparents whose kids have been brainwashed into thinking college is the only way to have a satisfying and well-paying lifestyle. These kids are going forward while their classmates are learning nonsense and incurring huge debt. BRAVO to them and thanks always Stanley for sharing great things like this with us.

Did any of you azz clown liberals here that? He said he didn't pay himself for 2 years after making 625k...while paying his staff...investing money in equipment...etc. This kind of people have built this country. Look at how happy his employees are. They appreciate good leadership. They aren't complaining about being held back by a 17 year old entrepreneur.

This is true. The area I live in is bad. When I mowed lawns I had people tell me to stay out of their territory and some who would see my truck and wait to see if they can steal my clients.When I encountered another landscaper I was always friendly and would offer advice or listen to their advice. But most others in my area are ruthless.i understand you can't always be soft in this line if work but there are lines you don't cross and unspoken rules to follow. I've worked all types of construction and fabrication my whole life and have only met a handful of like minded people who realize the benefits of communicating and sharing resources. I am Hispanic and I have an ability many need in my area. So those who have been kind to me have benefits of always having a translator just a phone call away and that resource is sometimes what lands the job. I also would gladly trade clients with others if it truly helped them or made sense.

It was great to hear Garrett's comment that you treat your employees like you would want to be treated. In my 50 years of working I have NEVER worked for anyone that treated their employees the way that they themselves wanted to be treated. At my last job there was no 'give and take', it was ALL take by the employer! If Garrett can maintain that attitude he will go far with fantastic workers, who will do anything for him.

I am retired now but have owned several small companies over the years. I have only two pieces of advice: 1) Always put yourself in the customer's position. Imagine how you would feel if you were them, when you are making your decisions. 2) Never "buy" a job by pricing too low. It's better to spend your time pounding the pavement looking for good jobs rather than working for peanuts and regretting your price.

Bought his first one at 13. All his money, all paid for. Success is one job away. Bid to cheap it will take another job to recover. Bid high buy more and pay bills.

Purchase wholesale pumps and filter systems and hire an experienced pond builder to teach the other guys.

TheLoiteringKid Even as an owner/operator it’s hard to get near what an OTR trucker deserves (whether you’re a hotshot like me or a fully loaded semi truck driver). No one wants to pay out near enough. I’m hoping I can manage to build my business the way I want and that the market can stay high enough for my work because I’m great at it and really enjoy what I do and getting to be my own boss/work my own hours

At lest as an O/O you knew what you were getting into. You have a direct choice in how you run your ship, and can make choices that have your best interest in mind. The industry's big companys as a whole have nickel and dimed themselves into a position where they cant survive and would bankrupt themselfs if they were to pay there drivers a proper wage. There go to complaint is a "shortage of drivers." as a CDL holder you are a licensed professional, and should be payed as such. The Big companies love to blame it all on a "lack of drivers", please, there 2 biggest problems are dispatchers that have no idea the rules and regulations a truck must follow, and the sub par pay. Some of the most common reasons i'v seen for truckers to jump ship with a particular carrier include Dispatchers/brokers Knowingly disturbing sleeper birth in an attempt to expedite a specific shipment Scheduled pickup/drop-offs outside of shippers/receiver's hours Ordering driver to continues driving when out of hours, or worst when a mechanical problem placed truck/trailer OOS. Well rant over, OTR trucking is a lifestyle choice, and is not for everyone. Hell i know my county's road shop/dot just sent out there yearly snowplow driver add, and they need some Class A drivers for the road projects they have coming up. And all school bus depot's well hire anything walking on 2 legs that can pass a drug and background test and pay to get you a class b with air brake endorsement.

TheLoiteringKid Thats where I’m glad I’m my own dispatcher. Sounds like brokers become nothing but problems with wrong addresses, incorrect load info, or just plain not knowing what can actually fit the truck they scheduled a shipment to go on. Not to mention all they do is seem to drive the pay down even more by the time it gets to us because they become yet another middle man wanting to pay themselves.

Stan, I hope you guys talk about the market demand for any given area. If theres no need/demand for any particular type of work then there's no market and that kind of growth isn't possible. Obviously landscaping is almost always needed at some level so his success must be due to a high demand market that doesn't have enough players to saturate the playing field eh? Unless their quality and level of service completely blows everyone else outta the water.. I speak from experience. I sold .y upholstery shop 13 yrs ago....for these reasons.

Kim Jung Hard Un when I was 18 I was getting into commercial work and I needed a loan to get money to get materials. Bank didn’t want to loan me a cent. Even with contract in hand. Same with credit cards. I had enough money to cover the stuff. But that meant I could only take on one job at a time. I went broke for a month till the checks were written. This kid came from money no doubt. Banks don’t care about how much money you have cash is no longer king credit is. Now everything I do goes on my credit card and is paid at the end of the month.

This is where a practical apprenticeship program, landscape focused, really takes the cake! Here in Canada, the Interprovincial Red Seal Program really allows for people to either run a business or (the usual route) work alongside an experienced landscaper, horticulturist or golf superintendent to gain experience prior to starting their own operation. 6 weeks of school each winter for 4 consecutive years and just over 5000 hours of on the job experience is basically the program. Highly recommend this route for anyone in Canada who is considering a career in the landscape business.

1. The graphics on your vehicles/equipment/uniforms will get you more business than any other advertising. Drives inquiries to your phone and website. It can be cost effective to lease vehicles and park them around town. But, seeing it at a job site is priceless. When you run a clean job, you make your own referrals. 2. Multiply yourself. Results may be different when you delegate often better. Free yourself to what only you can do. 3. Make nice with the neighbors. Introduce yourself or at least leave a note and business card. Explain how you will respect their property and minimize any impact to them, including noise and dust. Ask them to call if they have questions or concerns. They will send you work. 4. Budget time to be "presidential". Look ahead, network, joint venture, subcontract. Start related businesses that improve your economy of scale. Can you rent out construction equipment? Can you sell landscape materials? (Haul out spoil from one job and sell it to a competitor, the public or on another job.) 5. Q. What is a subcontractor? A. An interest-free loan. Sub out heavy tree work, irrigation, concrete flatwork, asphalt, outdoor lighting, gazebos, barns, pergolas, she sheds, outdoor kitchens and anything else you want. You manage the customer experience, ensure the sub looks and acts professionally. If somebody calls you for work you don't want to do or sub out, make a referral and follow up. You'll get work out of it. 6. Don't fail to push construction risk, contractually, down to your subs for their scope. They need to provide a bond and list you and the homeowner as additional insureds for GL. I got asked about work by prospective subs and nothing weeds out the lightweights faster than, "How big a job can you bond?"

These kids are wise. It's much easier to start a business when you're young, energetic, and single. My cousins started their independent construction business's that way, and now each of them owns multiple real estate. I was the only dumbass. Instead of taking over my dad's mason business, i went into auto mechanics. Lots of work, massive overhead, low profit margin. These guys started young, with minimum overhead, and lots of hard work. God bless them.
