Jamie has been begging me to let her work in the field... What do you guys think?....... =)

[@paulreints2279]

Definitely do so! I'm starting my lawn care business this spring & I want to work solo as long as possible, but I'm praying to get so busy I need help. I'm blessed to have an amazing woman who wants to answer calls, handle billing, estimates, etc. But what's even better is she wants to get outside & actually Work most of all. Good luck to both of you this year!

[@allphaselandscape]

My wife has mentioned things like that in the past, especially wanting to help out when we're short-staffed. I always really appreciate it but I'm not comfortable going there. Not because she couldn't do a great job, some of my very best employees are women. I just don't want her to have to deal with the rigors of landscape work. I'd rather work harder myself and have her taking care of things on the home front. Call me old school! She does help out in the office though and that is much appreciated!

[@robertpaidprice]

Do it !!! Although, she understands what you do, the in field experience will help her respect what you do a bit more😂😂. My wife worked with me multiple times this season. She respects what i do, but profits must add up. She gives me tips all the time.

[@DulinCutAndTrim]

No one ever believes me when I say this but quitting my job and starting my business allowed me to be the husband and father I’ve always wanted to be. I’m at all the school events, all the meetings, all the appointments and even better I get to be there for my friends whenever they need help. That’s freedom I didn’t have working a 9-5. I really enjoyed this one man

[@jaratoll8739]

I concur. No begging for and being denied time off

[@garrisonfamilyalbum3901]

Still one of your most powerful videos Jonathan.👊 Divorced, at 55 with a 5 your old precious son, 650.00 in child support, a family dividing mother-in-law and now an ex wife doing all she can to tear our son's life down with his dad, I think the odds are stacked against my son and i exponentially. That's why in a few years, I'm certain I'll be able to share a needed success story that many men aren't hearing. Because of the thousands of videos I've seen since last year, I've never seen a success story of a single father and his children he only sees a few days a month. My son will be 6 in May. He is my priority motivation. Thank you guys for all you do. Lord willing, a God-fearing wife is still to be. You've no idea of the inspiration you give. Appreciate you 👍

Great video. I sat down with my wife and we watched it together. Towards the end my wife said “listen to that woman, she knows what she’s talking about”. I never really communicated well with her in the last 2 years and she rarely was pulling in the same direction as me. This video helped us both to get on the same page. Thanks to both of y’all for taking the time to make it. Have a blessed 2020.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you........my Gf and I just watched your video together. It was so wonderful and my Gf was nodding her head the whole way through it. I too switch from part-time lawn care to full-time. This was my first full year and we both were as nervous as all get out. So many unanswered questions, so many what-if-this-goes-wrong......etc. I am hear to say, when two people love each other like crazy and are on the same page......You become this special team that is almost impossible to stop. I ended up clearing 72K this year, which is about 30K less than my corporate job, but we are loving live, each other and we are TRULY enjoying "our" journey together. Again, we thank the both of you from the bottom of our MICHIGAN hearts. God Bless

This video was absolutely gold! Thank you thank you!

Hey there's a lot of value in stay at home moms! My wife has since went part time, and it's been great. I will say when we were first getting the business off the ground it was great that she worked full time. It helped financially of course. But I am really thankful we are in a position where she only works part time now. Makes me wonder how we ever did it when she worked full time.

[@mattpahuta]

Another great video. This IS and is going to be an epic video for new comers to the industry! It was tough for me! I am a dreamer and love to share them with my wife, but because of how stressful it was I had to keep a lot of it to myself and just pray and work hard to prove that it could be done. I have made a lot of mistakes, but the end result is that my wife is very happy (and proud) of my success.

[@FloridaTurfPros]

Totally agree... I honestly didn't (and don't) make Jame aware of all the challenges faced with running the business. It's a fine line between communicating and causing unnecessary worry. I feel like since it was my vision to push us towards this business, then the challenges are mostly mine to bare. All in all it's been amazing, and we've never looked back.

I am so grateful that a man like yourself has someone as wonderful as Jamie. The gift of family is my greatest treasure. Unfortunately my wife left me for her mother 4 years. Our son was one. He's now 5 and I'm 55. I'll have to do this on my own but it's going to be okay - I will make it with God's help. I have all the bills to pay plus $650 in child support. Losing my wife was horrible but then losing my son to was devastating. My goal for 2020 is to just establish a weekend business. If my job will hold out a couple years, I'll trade it in for driving a school bus, henceforth - Insurance and a year-round paycheck. I wouldn't even be considering this if it wasn't for the wisdom and discernment I get from you guys. I am grateful for each and every one of you.

I highly suggest more vids with Jammie, showing her behind the scenes work, her support, and even some end of the day debriefings and personal interaction.

Man, this was awesome and thank you both for sharing. When we got started this time last year, your channel was very influential to me. We are about an hour west of you and I too graduated from UWF, although I only minored in finance (majored in management), ha! My wife is one of the main reason we took the leap into a very successful first season. My wife has been my supporter and rock from day one, and has always been there to hash out the details good and bad. In fact, my wife created our logo and creates most of our marketing materials. Communication is key in order to stay on the same page. I can agree that time spent will change and there will be many sacrifices as you grow your business, but as you said, it is still our job as husbands to inject that time and invest back into your family, your “ohana.” Family is everything and without their support it would certainly be tough to maintain success. We both did the same planning for our family as I too quit a full time 8-5p salaried leadership position with full benefits. My wife continues to provide our insurance. Thank you again, Jonathan. Would love to meet for lunch one day during the office season to bounce marketing ideas or discuss strategy for our respective markets. Keep up the great work! 🤙🏽

Hey brother real quick and this is for everyone please please please please make sure to teach your wife right next to you how to entirely run the buisness from start to finish even book keeping keep her involved incase something is to happen to you and how to hire new worker and everything and always have someone that is LOYAL to your buisness that will be willing to help your wife train the new guys in case anything was to ever happen to you. Me myself i have trained my wife and father everything about my buisness because iknow that at any moment we can be gone and i would never wanna leave my family hanging. So iam sure yall get the point just make sure to have everything set up for success alot of people start good but end tragically also i have a choice to sell my buisness to some other local companies so get familiar with your competitors and make friends man at the end of the day where all in the same boat together take care and best of luck to everyone.

We both still currently work our full time jobs as well as putting in another 40 plus hours with our company from back office duties to in the field. Hoping quit my job and go full time in March. My wife says she will keep her salaried job until we are able to replace her income as well, then she will be able to leave. Thanks for the great content!

How much would I need to do roughly making 50k right now?

[@FloridaTurfPros]

About 40 clients will get you 50k a year... at least that has been my experience.

May I ask you, what is an h.o.u. account? Just wondering

[@johnharper2004]

That's a Home owners association. Where there could be 30 plus homes. They pay a monthly fee to the association and in return they usually don't mow, remove snow etc. It's all hired out.
