Great looking couple and set up🙄👍My wife and I have been fulltime in lawncare since 2012 and have no regrets, best thing we ever did!

[@j.johnson6548]

Im glad they have the finances to get good equipment. However, anyone can get started with a push mower, trimmer, and blower out the truck of a car. Dont let not having enough money discourage opportunity

[@manasseh7]

Yes exactly

[@harryerhart5978]

Good luck with your new business l loved this business for 37 years 👍👍

[@joshcannon3600]

Best of luck Ridge and Valley 🌱👍💰

[@vickisoutdoors_]

It is nice to see husband and wife lawn care people hope they do well. Always husband and wife you tube channels to watch and learn how other couples work together 👍✌️

[@upscalelawncaremonroe408]

Hey, i did the same thing , i left my job in 2016 and have not looked back!!!!!

[@crystaljohnson2521]

My husband and I are in our 2nd year of lawn care. Both of us left our jobs in the beginning of 2020 and we love it.

[@larrysiers9369]

retired early from teaching , going into my 3rd year full time....wish id done it soooner.....

[@cleancutslawncare]

Me and my wife mow together and love doing it together. It’s fun that way, we make videos, enjoy mowing more, and she will be joined me full time soon.

[@bobbywall2000]

Oh man this is great! Man i've used gazette's, signs, big flyers; but what works best for me is looking at the property itself and putting the price on a little business card or something small you use to promote your business, saying... front and back, I will take care of this property for instance $40... this tells the person you've already done the legwork. Out of everything that I've tried as far as marketing... Putting a price on a business card with some Scotch tape on the front door... man it's like 90% awesome & works better than anything👍

[@terenceavery4902]

I keep telling myself that I am going to make the jump with my husband. However, I always seems stuck when it is time to do it. Every year I tell myself that I am going to do it. I think this year will be the year since I have seen this video. I pray Blessings over your business.

[@gregsegars2743]

A lot of prayer and planning throughout the process for sure! But when you know it’s right, and you are in agreement, it’s time!🎉 All the best to you both!!

[@lawncommander]

Good for you, Greg and Betsy

[@dagtailgroundmaintenance]

Hope it all goes well guys 👍

[@jackdeborahgibson3184]

I hope you had a long talk with them and gave them a lot of information, that first year can be rough but it is worth it.

[@nolifemowlifelawnmaintenan4347]

This is so AWESOME

[@adventuresinlawncare3734]

I think it’s the BEST way to go. Reliability Quality Profitability

[@ninjapirate9503]

Gosh good luck! I’m trying to do the same! I’ve been cutting my hours back and taking in more lawns. I have 22 properties at the moment and I acquired these in 2 weeks! So I’m sure I can double that soon. Word of mouth goes a long way! Always be kind and smile! Never cut corners! So far it’s working for me...

[@gregsegars2743]

Sounds like a great start! Good luck! What’s been your most effective marketing tool?

[@williezlawncare8294]

Fantastic content. Well done guys. Like minded and Like hearted. The amount of Satisfaction my wife and I get in seeing the Transformation of a manicured lawn and smiles on our clients faces warms our hearts.

[@gregsegars2743]

Exactly!

[@JonsDailyHustle]

Awesome to see a couple share the same Passion work together starting a business

[@josephturner3398]

My wife and I have been doing lawn care together for the last 4 years. We have done a lot of landscaping in the past. This year we are planning on doing a lot more landscaping type work such as French drains and retaining walls. We have had a few people that’s worked for us come and go but together has been the most beneficial. We look big from the outside but it’s just us.

[@GoodmanLawn]

Nice thats awesome!

[@santosvelasquez5688]

From fl I am Hispanic own my lawn and landscape business I did it you can do it too 👍

[@jamieohara2307]

Nice Job Jason. Thank you for helping Greg and Betsy!

[@TNsher776]

It's a pretty good business to start, as long as you got reliable customers! I do it on the side for extra cash

[@tonycritcher3419]

Wishing this lovely couple great success! Only advice I can think of as they seem pretty set already is, Not to take on jobs you won't be comfortable with, like as you say, gutter cleaning. Most of all enjoy what you do!

[@gruntt6945]

Welcome to a lovely partnered life, My wife loves it now she is invested in it (from doing it ) and I am loving it as i knew i would. All the best but you don't need it you have already done the hardest part.

[@cleangreenlawnservicellc2630]

Awesome. Love it.

[@procutslawncare7185]

Good job the Kombi seems to be a great way to go. Maybe we’ll get to see each other out working somewhere good luck. What’s wrong with walking dogs for people LOL

[@terryrowe5982]

Wish y’all the best!

[@shhhgrowing3531]

Goodluck in your new venture. You got this.

[@jamesbartley6734]

Welcome to the lawn care industry Greg and Betsy! Buckle your seatbelts and get ready for an exciting ride!

[@frofroreacts]

[@shanebretey373]

Good luck guys.

[@logansimpson305]

Great video and cool setup

[@cramerslawnmaintenance9322]

Once you buy the enclosed trailer you're "All In" I know the feeling. No turning back..But with COVID, I ordered my trailer back in November and still waiting on it...

[@notyou69420.]

Ouch Can't get a refund? Are they just swamped with business or what

[@cramerslawnmaintenance9322]

@@notyou69420. Parts are delayed bc of Covid and less people working putting it together. I'm asking for a loaner until mine comes in.

[@agapitorodriguez414]

Awesome best of luck

[@davidthreegun5278]

Best wishes on your startup.

[@fivepointslawn2275]

Congratulations to them both . Wishing them success . Little tough at first . But they look like they have what it takes !! Great video

[@adanvaldcontreras4283]

Hope they do great 👍.. just keep it simple... The thing i see with young companies is that want to get big really fast..sometimes it works out sometimes it doesn't...

[@d_dizzie_druck5753]

bought my Kombi used, it's paid for itsself already before even one full season😀 Congrats on your new adventure, i hope to be in the same place myself someday😉😊

[@ARBOLISTAEdgarGarcia]

good luck guys, nuce video

[@trinitylawncare2329]

Jason, nothing but respect for you brother. I appreciate your content and am encouraged by your faithfulness to the Lord and to your family. Would love to meet you guys one day, you have been very encouraging to me. Thanks so much brother.

[@salvatorestrauss9723]

Good luck. I'm starting up soon myself

[@gregsegars2743]

Good luck to you as well!!

[@10acresfreedom]

I’m very interested in finding out how this couple is doing during their first full season together. What are the odds you’ll do a follow up video with them?

[@bradfusion]

He just did a follow up with them. Check it out on his page.

[@jnash5137]

I've noticed this new business when searching doesn't match the sign on the trailer. Trailer has Ridge & Valley Lawn Care, LLC & the web address doesn't have the word care and google didn't pickup using the phone number. They need to have everything matching. Good luck and God Bless.

[@gregsegars2743]

Thanks for the tip!

[@707ronnie]

I Ben in the business for 3 years now I work a full time and mow after work I have health insurance and it’s hard to give that up I have to make a lot off money to pay for health insurance I have 32 accounts I do it all myself i just don’t think I can give up my job to just mow wish I all the luck

[@orlawnandlandscape7379]

I’ve know a lot of people that have a regular full time job. They are there for the health insurance. I myself have a full time job and mow 25 residential accounts weekly. I would like to make that jump soon and go full time in the lawn business.

[@livinginmontgomeryalabama]

Great job Greg and Betsy. I just went full time last year after leaving a well paying full time job. Definitely scary and I'd love to talk about it some time. I'm here in Montgomery, so not far from y'all. Good luck. I know you'll do great.

[@lawncarelife]

Thanks for the comment, Britt. I hope they do well

[@louieevans9125]

Good luck, Talk to a CPA you do not want to be surprised with your taxes. Make sure you have commercial insurance on vehicle and equipment . Regular insurance is different from your commercial, and business insurance. Talk to an agent. You want all your ducks in a row.

[@TexasHulk]

This is exactly what I want.. I almost went n buy the trailer last time then I remembered I don’t have a truck yet.. damn.

[@gregsegars2743]

Ha! We actually bought the trailer before having the RIGHT truck. Kind of backwards. But are happy with what we found.

[@firstname6208]

you'll be looking for a bigger trailer and another mower by fall. good luck. hope the gub'ment doesn't shoot us all in the foot.

[@SandboxJ]

Is it possible to have video where explain how Facebook can help a budding lawn care business. I have never really explored FB before.

[@Batman-ro7mh]

What about health insurance?

[@gregsegars2743]

Investigate health shares and marketplace.

[@42swissmocha]

Husband and wife teams makes a lot of sense in lawn care. All the money is going to the same place, lol.

[@lawncarelife]

That's a great point. I think my kids eat all my money

[@42swissmocha]

@@lawncarelife Well the one thing I know is I don't get as much as I think I should

[@jamesoliver7403]

What do you do if you have too many customers that want more than mowing ??

[@firstname6208]

what? you found a rich young wife wants her pool cleaned? lol

[@shornz82]

How did you guys do this season? Monthly revenue? Just asking for my own information because we have been thinking of starting a business.

[@lawncarelife]

I am planning to do a follow-up video with them soon to hear how year one went

[@mrdavebach]

Their website looks nice and professional until you get down to those testimonials. I'm not saying you should lie but you've heard that saying fake it until you make it. Perhaps some family and friends could provide character reference quotes about you two until you've got solid lawn customers that can fill that space. Good luck!

[@gregsegars2743]

Thanks so much for catching that, Dave! I was messing around with the site and thought a section like that would be cool but didn’t mean to actually add it yet. 🤣

[@ElimitechPest]

God helps those who help themselves. Put God 1st and work hard, God will provide the increase. God-bless your family and your business, we ask and pray in Jesus name Amen!

[@manasseh7]

Amen !
