How to do Big Lawn Care & Landscape Jobs for Big profits

[@outdooredgelawnandlandscap3105]

Love this Stan. Very inspirational and motivational for small guys like myself.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks😄👍

[@SuperFrankHopkins]

Last year I started my landscaping company, and my first job was a 200$ sod install job for an elderly person. Fast forward 1 year later, I''ll be starting on my first 4,000$ job- patio/retaining wall/stone steps project tomorrow and I'm absolutely excited to see their back yard transform. Thank you Stanley- I messaged you on facebook.

[@SamTurner843]

Hey stan I'm literally just opening my landscaping business and already have two possible contracts lined up one for a residential 12 month maintained and a elementary school laying sod 157,000 square foot and your videos have really helped and given me the confidence to go out and get things done THANK YOU!

[@Dirtmonkey]

wow- that is awesome!

[@johnsantistevan2215]

I'm just starting my own landscaping business I worked for a landscaping outfit 14years and never quite understood how to bid retaining walls just install after seeing the video I'm confident that I could Tackle a task like that I'll keep in touch thanks

[@sike800]

Stan gets me so hyped to try and start my own business and become something.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Bryce, best of luck if you decide to !

[@hunterk3880]

I'm 15 and have 5 yards that I do and my brother who owns his own land scaping business gave me a job to do for 200$ I was so happy. I worked 19 hours all by my self and thay led to me doing more stuff I don't get paid much but I hope that comes with time! I love your videos. Keep it up!

[@growrootslandscape7879]

Hi Stan, your comments and recommendations are definitely well noted, and good for the long-term. We respect your advice, because you are living testimony. Take care and God bless

[@brookspatriciaoutdoors81]

Hey Stanley, awesome info on looking for maintenance issues with retaining walls. Trying to get this part time lawn service off the ground and that’s just the little big things that will help me land and keep more clients. Keep it up buddy.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Happy to help! Thanks for watching 😀

[@mathieulevesque4150]

Thanks for all your videos! As a young landscaping entrepreneur myself, I found them very useful and inspiring!!!

[@Dirtmonkey]

Awesome!

[@bermudezdevelopment]

Great video! Thank you for advice.. I'm from buckeye arizona and I'm at a starting point for lawn maintenance and eventually get into landscaping..

[@leeraynieto4843]

Stan the man! Love the videos! We are starting an off-road and performance shop down here in Texas and everything you say in your videos about how to do business is very easily relatable! Especially this video, on expanding your business and not being of afraid of the bigger task and bigger risk, because at the end of the day, it is all worth it! Thanks for all the tips and business advice! Keep up the great job!

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks😄. It's good to know that many of the business principles for contractors apply toward other industries. Good to hear from you!

[@randymikhaiel933]

Great video! When I saw the title I was like yea right you mean big ass headaches. But you knew what you were doing. Lol. Even when I was a mechanic eons ago, it was always the smaller jobs, the in and out jobs that made the most $$, but was always attracted to the big ticket jobs until everything goes to hell in a handbag and it will. I've been doing what I do going on 15 years now, I can recall maybe a handful of big jobs that went without a hitch and each one at the end I was pinching myself. Lol but still attracted to them for some reason.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Randy Mikhaiel Yep- they can have big problems but that is reality. The larger the job the more complicated it becomes but thats why they have higher profit margins.

[@hollierandson9836]

Great info for us just starting out! I was just thinking about this after I told a customer I would take on her landscaping and design

[@Dirtmonkey]

Hollier and Son Lawn Care Start small, keep learning, keep pushing yourself to understand more, master the business end and then grow in stages. Explosive growth is a killer.

[@charnocr]

Haha totally digging the Goku man! Great talk. Thanks for the inspiration and support.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Appreciate that Richard, thanks !!

[@felixrblanco]

This videos are great! I am not sure why you don't have more subscribers and I don't speak for everyone but I do enjoy the longer videos like this one. Thank you for making them. Good luck finding new team members.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Felix Blanco Thank you! I can get more content in depth with longer videos-hence why I have started to do them.

[@V4zz33]

Props for the Goku figurine in your office! Oh, and awesome video as always! :--)))

[@valentingradinariu2777]

Thanks Stan big help

[@Dirtmonkey]

Love to hear it, thanks !

[@j6rojas1]

Love your videos man! very informative. I come from the automotive industry but your business principles are something that anybody can learn from. I was actually a painter technician for Caterpillar in Texas for 3 years (I'm only 23 yrs old) so I know a thing or two about heavy equipment ha ha. Look forward to watching more vids

[@jackcheadle3]

Great... Now I am stuck binge watching your videos.... bastard! Anyway, I see that this is an older video and I haven't watched them all (yet). I REALLY liked the trouble stuff you talked about at the end. Keep talking about the real life stuff how it really is, that is what will give folks a better understanding of how running a business really is like.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Appreciate the support Jack and thank you for watching !

[@jeremyswihart1656]

[@Dirtmonkey]

Thanks Lorie!

[@sumners6466]

Another great video! You are keeping me motivated. This is the first year of business for me and I am not doing as well as planned. I was a Regional Sales manager for a large corporation and managed 58 retail locations so I know how things never go right. I started off strong and landed a ton of mulch jobs but have now slowed up. I have about a quarter of yards to mow vs my business plan and now the money has slowed up badly. I definitely don't want to give up so soon and jump back into corporate america but man its hard to pay the bills. Trying to stay positive and build something for my son who is 2 years old to take over one day. I have taken on some foreclosures in my area but they are not paying much. The foreclosures are keeping me busy but I think it has made me lose focus on what I am trying to achieve. Need the money but it is taking all my time and not allowing me to market and get new clients for what I am trying to do.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Sumner's This is where I talk about being the Jack of all trades and master of 2. You must have a wide range of skills to survive but master 2 of them to thrive. Have you heard me speak on this subject? If not let me know and I will post up a podcast on it.

[@sumners6466]

No I have not heard you talk about that. Yes please do. I appreciate any help and I have learned you have to do anything it takes to make the money to survive until it picks up.

[@masonsmowing6592]

Sumner's don't give up Sumner I was where you where a year ago. Master those foreclosures! I crush em. Then do their Bush jobs for big money. Learn to charge a lot for code enforcement. Then go to the reality companies that sell those same foreclosures. Now I'm hiring a solid crew to keep doing those easy mastered jobs so i can start the bigger landscaping jobs like the videos Keith kalfas posted today on the landscaping employee trap. The master of two video is in Stan's earlier videos. Possibly poverty can bring rags to riches which is my favorite but I recommend them all.

[@sumners6466]

Thanks for the inspiration and advice! My first couple days doing the foreclosures I was thinking holly crap no way will I make money having to take all these photos but man its repetition and they are feeding me a ton of work so its a positive. I am now able to do a large amount of foreclosures a day and can see were it will be profitable. What you just told me was my plan all along when I took on these foreclosures. Thanks again for the advice and support!

[@StormsLandscaping]

You should vlog the process of rebuilding that wall!

[@Dirtmonkey]

CJ Storms I am still going through the bidding and discovery process. It's in for engineering and then 2 separate boards have to approve the process.

[@timberlineoutdoorservices2338]

Great video.#1 can you sell powerwash and sealer on those walls?....#2 is there ever a "cost effective option" besides tear down and rebuild. My associations would rather pay $3,000 a year for 20 years than pay 30,000 to fix a problem for good. #3 will you reset grade on a wall that is already started to push out. I am asking because you have experience with associations and I'm sure you have dealt with these issues. #4 do you offer options or solutions I guess is what I'm asking and what is the best course of action in these situations. At your convenience. I have followed your advice several times and consistently it is the best. I am subscribed to everyone as you mentioned but you are the only one I would follow into battle.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Chris Smith #1 Yes- I upsell sealer when it is close to a roadway or is likely to be vandalized. #2 Rarely is there a viable repair option that protects you the installer-remember if a "repair" fails-they will hold you responsible even if you make them sign off. #3 you can reset grade to help extend the life of the wall but that is not a fix-its a bandaid that will some day have to be ripped off.#4 any solutions must first and foremost protect you the installer and then your customer. Lastly- Thanks for the huge compliments!

[@timberlineoutdoorservices2338]

Ok cool....thank you!

[@jimavil5395]

Can you do a video on how to maintain the retaining wall for us gardeners

[@Dirtmonkey]

Good idea Jim, thanks for the suggestion !

[@JPorkins88]

Stan the man, with the big plan.

[@Dirtmonkey]

JPorkins88 Haha Thanks!

[@joaquinsantiz1903]

Great video stan. Thanks for the advice.

[@Dirtmonkey]

joaquin santiz Awesome! Thanks for the feedback!

[@epicinterlocklandscape3987]

Wouldn't adding landscape fabric/filter cloth between the aggregate and the clean fill stop the dirt from washing away?

[@john.johnb_online1438]

I Love the Bike - yeah baby !!!!!!!

[@RebelStateSovereign]

Agree Stanley :-)

[@Dirtmonkey]

😀

[@bblawncarekc]

So I do about 55 lawns a week. To the max with me a a buddy working. I want to hire a full time next year. I do about 10 mulch jobs a year. What is the next step you think? What should My next step be?

[@Dirtmonkey]

Time each lawn so you know exactly how long an employee has to spend on each site. Route to reduce drive time. Then train them and go. Double check their actual time spent against budgeted time.

[@markcobberti1569]

I love your videos and wish I could meet you. Actually I think I can meet you if you are going to be at the GIE+expo in October of this year. I plan on being there.

[@sunsetservices751]

Great Video ! I remember when I was kid and always wonder why they are large holes behind the retaining wall that I was playing on. Damn to bad I move could of sold them on back filling them ...

[@Dirtmonkey]

Sunset Services Still can- keep your eyes open for them. :)

[@shaymoose17]

Man those are some big walls!! Kind of breaks your heart seeing them fail down the road (esp. as an installer). Do you ever see your company switching over to bigger retaining wall blocks that are now being built vs the regular versalok standard? Those would give me much better peace of mind for walls over 8'. Great vid! Thanks for sharing.

[@Dirtmonkey]

+shaymoose17 If I go with bigger materials I switch over to Boulders. The big blocks are great in certain circumstances and more forgiving of soil conditions. This means the installer can screw up and the blocks will handle it. But they are more expensive and I try not to screw up to often-haha :). So I can get by with the regular blocks and pass the savings along to my customer :)

[@Sawbones_Actual]

What maintenance should be done for those retaining walls?

[@airsoftdeltasquad100]

When you get some time you should make a video on how to build steps into a retaining wall. Thanks Stan.

[@Dirtmonkey]

GUNS & KNIVES Great subject- That takes skills. I have one project with built in stairs coming this fall. Maybe I will video it.

[@lawncarelife7214]

Sick Skill. Your wall demonstrates a skill that has been truly Mastered. Thanks for sharing your knowledge $) experience. i haven't even finished the video, I had to comment on that Wall(SICK SKILL$).....Back to the vid.

[@Dirtmonkey]

LAWN CARE LIFE We installed about 2 million dollars of retaining walls on that site. Thanks for watching!

[@creativelandscapedesigns9493]

Hey Stan, do you cut the turf areas at that condo association?

[@lawncarelife7214]

3 trucks is my goal within 7 years.

[@Dirtmonkey]

😄👍. Good goal

[@stephenbond6127]

Stan, On that swimming pool removal, can you make money typically if you rent the excavating equipment necessary and dump truck? Lol Probably not a question that can be really answered. Too subjective with too many variables. I tried! I think it is great that you put the effort to live a balanced life. Being with your son going to school will be one of the family events he will always remember...and that will increase the chances exponentially of him doing that with your grandchildren someday. I wish I can remember that song...don't remember if it was: "Cats in the Cradle", where the father sadly finds himself neglected by his son - who emulates his father's misappropriation of time when he was growing up. "Sorry dad, I can't come by because I'm doing this and that and my work needs me, etc. Congratulations even more on being a good father. But obviously on the other. One success will end upon your passing. The other can continue beyond the grave as I believe our families can continue beyond this mortal life. The love and time and sacrifice for our wives and children will determine if we truly desire it to be true. I'll pray for your dump truck! :) it will probably unfortunately wind up being: "prayer+parts+labor!" I absolutely loved the fact that despite all that happened you were determined to give of yourselves to those girls who need you to be there to develop them. That shows me you are living a great life. How can anyone ask any more of one?

[@Dirtmonkey]

The cats in the cradle is a song I know well. Ultimately our memories are made from our families and friends. Not from work Btw yes you can rent equipment. Do tons of work and make lots of money. Many established companies rent equipment for an entire season and then turn it in when fall arrives.

[@padthai411]

Awesome, Thanks

[@olibrown8601]

Hi Stanley, love your channel, great info and greatly appreciated. Any tips for finding quality employees? I'm in Australia but I'm sure there are some principles that are universal.

Great video! I like that you are sharing the reality of running a business. I have a small lawn and landscape business in Arkansas. I am just starting to take on bigger jobs and trying to grow the landscape side. I have never done walls or hardscapes. Do you have any suggestions on how to go about learning to grow into doing this kind of thing? I have thought it mite be best to hire someone with experience and more or less pay them to teach me how to do this stuff....

[@Dirtmonkey]

Yes. Hiring an experienced person is one way. Another is to work with another company for a brief while and watch how the operate. They have worked out the kinks in efficiency.

[@boujeelemonade5094]

like urban or Royal or metroplex

[@LuisGonzalez-qt4nl]

Good video, for jobs this big, how do you arrange the payment? is there some up front, do you arrange a payment plan or they pay the full amount once the job is finished?

[@boujeelemonade5094]

hey I'm 16 and hope to do exactly what you are doing (except in texas) I was wondering 2 things 1. can u show us ur equipment you use and how you do it 2. should I go to college first and get a business management degree or should I begin the process and build straight out of high school

[@Dirtmonkey]

+luckyphoenix cc Both- run your business to pay your way through college. Double education!

[@Dirtmonkey]

+luckyphoenix cc The larger the city the larger the profits. Typically big cities offer the opportunities to charge more for the same service that would be supplied in the country!

[@franciscovasquez9555]

I saw your Chanel a few weeks ago and I been going through all of them because they are supper helpful. I do have a question though. How did you go about saving money, Investing in to your business, and paying your self when you fist started ?

[@Dirtmonkey]

francisco vasquez imple- it was super tight. There was no extra money floating around. I watched all my budgets very carefully-still do.

[@sambell42]

[@tylerpittmon7936]

How much of the 80,000 is actually profit? As we all know that number has to do with material and labor costs. How do you figure in a number so you're actually making a profit? I find that to be the hardest thing is figuring out where to add on because any legitimate business is in business to make a profit.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Tyler Pittmon Every job is different. I.E. pricing can be hit or miss to know what percentage is profit. Unlike mass produced items what you and I do is unique every time. You must break your proposals down into components to know where the profits lie in each part of the job.

[@tylerpittmon7936]

So in other words you're saying that you tack on an extra amount to each component when you break it down? So it would be the cost plus your fee on top of that?

[@andreweasty]

Stan, where to begin, first off just subbed and you doing a great job with the content on the channel. I have been looking to expand my small business lately I am a 1 man patio and deck builder who mostly subcontracts to a big company,I do 2 - 4 builds per week, I have been using the big company I do work for to get my name and business out there and managed to pick up a few jobs out of it about 6 weekly lawn accounts, and 8 biweekly accounts and a couple landscaping and home maintenance jobs i picked up along the way, I guess what I am wondering is should I keep pursuing the different types of work and become a multiple services type of business or just focus on 1 aspect and really drive it or hire someone to take the other work but just take a slice of the pie off the top so to speak.

[@Dirtmonkey]

andreweasty Diversity is the key to surviving-but specializing is the key to thriving. You must be able to do it all so when works slows down your still busy. BUT when works picks up then the one or two things that make you a lot of profit -will be the first things you focus on- you can turn down the other work.

[@Jesse-gv9tf]

What if the grade has come over the retaining wall? I have a hill side apartment complex and there are two retaining walls in front of it. The first wall is 12 feet tall. The second wall it 3 feet tall however I added a second course of block making it 4 feet tall. The grade is coming over the retaining wall. Any explanation? Soil erosion?

[@mirabify]

Employees, that is the reason most of us are scared to grow. How do you keep a steady flow of help when these guys keep quitting or we have to fire them.?

[@Dirtmonkey]

I am constantly networking and recruiting. It never stood. Even when I have a full crew. You never know when someone will leave and it's good to have a replacement a phone call away.

[@MrDarkjoe87]

I have a lawn care business now and I am trying to covert over to landscaping. I just don't know how to find the landscaping work. For lawn care I did some door to door stuff. For landscaping I just don't know how to get the work. Any help would be great

[@Dirtmonkey]

I have a video coming out next week talking about this. It's called the best advertising for lawn care and landscaping.

[@mikecowan5786]

how can I get into commercial accounts around here everybody goes through Brinkman and they take 70% you get 30% how can I get past that and get all 100%.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Brick man is big but if you can make the connections they will seek you directly.

[@andrewcreative7707]

For your retaining walls, do you glue each row? (if not, why not?)

[@Dirtmonkey]

+Andrew Creative No -the blocks are pinned together. Only the top row is glued

[@Dirtmonkey]

+Matthew Martire Start small, tackle little projects and work your way into bigger jobs.

[@awwtizm4160]

hi stanley not sure if your seeing this but i am doing lawn care i currently have 10 clients i was wondering if i want a bigger company should i keep growing up until i get a bigger company to covert to landscaping or convert to landscaping next spring right away? also if i wanted to get into hardscaping when would i do that and where would i learn? i am only 16 right now 17 in september

I have been a sub of your for a while now, and have just seen this video. I all ready own a small lawn care business, and am thinking of getting into landscaping next year. But I don't have any experience personally doing this. From your prospective what do I need to focus on first. I have some hand tools but that is it no machines of any kind, except for lawn care equipment. Thank you for taking time to read this hope to here from you soon.

[@Dirtmonkey]

+Hillis Mowing & Lawncare Start with small jobs-but continually push yourself outside of your comfort zone. That will lead to bigger and bigger projects.

[@airsoftdeltasquad100]

Did you have to pay for any of the wall failures or did they have to pay for it because they didn't maintain it?

[@Dirtmonkey]

GUNS & KNIVES They will always try and make the installer pay for it. But those walls were built over 9 years before and the way the lots were graded-made the walls fail. They basically dumped an entire house lot of Mud into the wall.

[@donabraham7164]

Hey stan did you build your company yourself or is it a family business? Anyway I hope I can do projects like that one day.

[@Dirtmonkey]

Don Abraham We start out as a small business, just My dad and I. He was good with people so I soaked that in like a sponge, I watched how he would interact with customers during difficult situations and was amazed at his skill. I took what he taught me as a 2 man crew and grew it from there. Acquiring technical skills, studying business in college, learning geotechnical engineering and memorizing technical manuals on retaining wall design.

[@ivankravtsov9850]

hey Stanley do you have any courses to teach about math for all the stuff you do lol or just landscaping courses ?

[@Dirtmonkey]

+ivan kravtsov Everything I do is broken down into the simplest math terms possible. My high end landscape courses with their formulas use basic math so anyone can master them.

[@sigiflores5699]

Hey boss id like to ask you for a favor. I watch your videos all the time and love them but one thing that I havent seen this video comunity do is this: perhaps do it on a board or something visual. How one person starts their business as solo, making 25 an hour(just an example), slowly doing the jobs and then biger jobs, then the jump to biger jobs, better equipment and then the most important step of them all when to get your first employee, a foreman... it be nice to show profit examples(doesnt have to be urs) as the company grows and of course how to slowly grow from being a sole proprietor to when to change to an llc and then corp. Doesnt all have to be in one video but in a series of videos. I just havent seen anyone else do that explanation but your above all the other video makers i see so i ask you :p. Thanks a ton. reason i ask is for my self as well i do tree service and landscaping. Have 2 employees but im a bit hesitant to do the jump and hire more employees. Thanks again good videos

[@Dirtmonkey]

+sigifredo flores Great idea- why don't you work on it with me? Come up with 2-3 questions and we can shoot a video or ten questions and we will do a podcast. You ask the questions- I provide the answers.

[@thelawngod9093]

you are saying all retaining walls need maintenance? please explain

[@Dirtmonkey]

+THE LAWN GODS They require routine inspection to look for issues before they become problems. Gophers, chipmunks, wash outs, careless mowers running to close behind the wall etc etc. All these things can create problems.

[@donniebargo964]

I when I had my company in Nashville my truck repair company and one week's time I hired and fired seven mechanics and 2 tow truck drivers I think my biggest problem with my employees down there Waze you couldn't hire people that wasn't had some kind of problems everybody's got issues but it was the drugs was just overwhelming first class great mechanics but they're on drugs you can't have that I mean you cannot have a drug addict driving a tow truck or working on somebody else see stuff that's not good business practices some companies put up with that I would not

[@BolieProServices]

How should some someonr maintain the retaining walls?

[@BlackDahliaF5DP]

Dave Bolie by not changing the grades. A heavy mower could create a minor ditch where water could pool and eventually push out a wall. The big one he was talking about they regraded it and had a swale which was like a giant water pit that caused the demise of the wall.

[@BolieProServices]

Yea I usually add dirt behind the walls periodically after I install them to keep them up to date

[@donabraham7164]

What do think about donamow.com? I just put the site up and paid the same guy that packerd and Alabama lawn pros use.

[@timberlineoutdoorservices2338]

Don Abraham Sharp, professional looking site. Well done.

[@timberlineoutdoorservices2338]

Sorry Don, I thought you were suggesting the name. I think it's catchy and would look great on a truck

[@ericburden7283]

How do you maintain a retaining wall ?

[@Dirtmonkey]

Keep the grades flush at the top-don't let them settle. Keep out critters that burrow behind the wall. Look for and monitor any movement.

[@joshchavee5395]

I have my own maintenance and lawncare business, I just feel I don't have enough knowledge to get into the landscaping business, I know it's good to stick with it and learn from experience, but I'm wondering does it come with time I'm 24
