Mowing lawns as a solo lawn care operator is tough, but you CAN make really good money doing it... You're probably NOT going to get rich mowing lawns as a solo guy, but you CAN earn a comfortable living. I currently have a great team/crew I work with, and in all transparency could never do the volume of work we do without my crew/team. That being said there's not a DRASTIC difference in profit between a superb owner/operator business vs a mismanaged or inefficient lawn care company with employees. In fact, I would say it would be better to be solo than to have an inefficient team... frankly, it's just not worth the headache if you don't have a good crew. In this video we're doing a real time mow on a couple lawns, and I"ll discuss my mindset of what I'm personally looking for when trying to find profitable lawn care clients.

MY STORY:
In 2016 I had been in law enforcement for 7 years.
I was not in control of my schedule, I was hardly making any money, and I was away from my family working nights and holidays. I was capable of more, and I was silently suffering. I knew I was selling myself and my family short.
I started Florida Turf Pros as a side hustle in 2016 before going full time in 2017.
My lawn business changed my life.
I control my own schedule, control my own income, and I am proud of what I have built; a business that supports me, my family, and some employees.
If you are a lawn care business owner, this channel will be a valuable resource for you.
This really is a great industry to be in, and I hope that by documenting my journey it will help you.
