How I Started 3 Lawn Care Businesses - My Story

I tell how I started 3 lawn care businesses. I still own and operate a lawn care business today and I still very much enjoy it. I think the green industry is still a great business. I have owned two businesses focused on lawn mowing as well as one focused on weed control and fertilization. I have sold off pieces of 3 different businesses. I have spent a lot of time working solo as well as running multiple crews. The lawn business is crowded but it is not that difficult to separate from the competition. I continue to grow and have helped many others do the same. Enjoy the video and I look forward to hearing from you in the comments.

Jason, your authenticity is probably one of your best traits, and a major factor in your success. Thank you for sharing your story!

[@lawncarelife]

Thank you

[@shanewhittemore]

Great story Jason. Sounds a lot like any successful entrepreneur business story. Ups and downs but most importantly never giving up. Lot of respect my friend.

Thank you for the testimony on your experience. I'm just getting started in the lawn care business and this was really inspirational to hear. I had a high paying corporate job, but wanted to have my own business. I'm nervous because I want to make a good living and the fear of the unknown is daunting. Your story really gave me hope that even if you make mistakes along the way, you can bounce back and make wiser decisions to be more fruitful.

Great story! You are a hard worker! Don't forget to put some $ away for retirement, it comes sooner than you think.

[@dcyphrz8532]

Amen!

[@scottsmith5048]

Very Interesting story! What is your opinion on Walker mowers?

[@lawncarelife]

In general I like them. They are expensive but perform great. They require a little more maintenance than a normal mower. Also, bagging is significantly slower than mulching

[@edensgardenshed9622]

How do you sell customers? Do they have any say in the deal?

[@grassman8684]

I think Dave Ramsey likes Miller's ideas. Lot's of the same mistakes i made 25 years ago

[@TheButtcrackson]

Very insightful and inspiring….I’ve worked for a landscaping company in my area for 12 years ran the maintenance side of this business for years about year 7 I started dabbling in the pesticide side of the business I made a huge move in my life this year …moved on from this landscape company I worked at for more than a decade to start my own service … I work a 9-5 also at a fence and railing company but do my own thing on the weekends Trying to dedicate time to growing the business from the ground up is super hard like this is maybe the first or second time I’ve commented on a KZbin video because I’m not big on social media not a very interactive person on the facebooks and instagrams Being reliable and accountable my work ethic is my strong suit I just wish it were easier to obtain customers like this business is all about contacts and networking but at the end of the day it should be about quality of work not who ya know or where your business pops up on some search engine
