THE ATTORNEYS CALLED | $300k Business in 30 Days (30)

[@samuelfink1619]

Mike I hope it doesn’t end so abruptly! I know this was day 30, but if we could get some follow ups on how everything plays out that would be awesome!

[@ChaseTruCutLawn]

Still hoping there are some follow-up videos.

[@ashtonparrish76]

Cannot believe this series is over - it’s been awesome! God Bless You Mike!

[@PixelatedSlag]

passionate man yells at camera that systems will disconnect you from the emotion of it. lmao, you really worked your ass off Mike. You inspired me to take more action inside my own business. thanks

[@cwalker688]

You’re a champ regardless of what happens. Your faith is unbelievable, I would not of been able to handle these pressures. All the best to you Mike, God bless!

[@ParkersParksAndGardens]

Thanks for going into the trenches in this series to prove this excellent point about systems! You have made the life of me & many other people so much better! I will continue ‘Walking on Water’

[@MaddawgEDC]

This is like when your favorite TV show ends the season on a cliff hanger!!! I have learned so much from this playlist! Thank you for doing this. I'd love a followup!

[@phelpshero2454]

This 30-month challenge was awesome. I really enjoyed getting some good information of what I could do in my market just a few minutes away from you and Matthews. I unfortunately was not able to do any Mike hunting around South Park as I wanted to meet you but maybe if you stay another month we can do that.😅

[@KeepItMowed]

Everyone thinks it's just mowing and going. Business is difficult at times. You have to be tough.

[@Tess.T.Cole916]

I live in California but wake up super early to watch your videos then go back to sleep.... Love your videos and positivity.. keep up the great work 👍🏼👏🎉

I grew up doing landscaping because my father ran a successful company and my brother and I were his workers. I always wanted to start my own landscaping business. I truly would like to be a part of this company! I'm in Oregon

[@TheProCut17]

The people involve in the wreck have seen your videos and want to capitalize on your success by suing you. If they are legit hurt I understand, but most likely they contacted an ambulance chaser after realizing the company was successful. Hopefully this location is insulated from the main business. Sorry mike, not the best wrap to this series. I hate to see you get extorted.

[@jeffreycummings8322]

It doesn’t matter if he’s successful or not. They are going after the insurance company. Not him

Dang they went to hospital and contacted lawyer. I guess everyone who does this aren't trying to recoup losses to our wild Healthcare for profit and whatever else it caused bc someone was texting running a light.

What says that when you get hit by a car that you're going to instantly feel pain? Have you ever been in a car accident? If you have then you know and you're talking nonsense, if you haven't then stop talking out your *ss. I don't know what it is about a keyboard and a computer that makes people come up with such stupid sh*t.

[@IanStubs]

Robert Kiyosaki's books resonate really well with this series. Systems are key. Thank you for doing this Mike. This is a huge inspiration for me.

[@CentralNH]

Did you go through insurance? That truck would have been totaled between frame and air bag. Craziness!

[@Iknowonlywhatimtaught]

I love your tenacity Mike. Your correct, this is the things all businesses go through. Of course it's a little different for business but basically the same. I'm not even in the lawn business. I have noticed you go through the same things all business go through. Sometimes you can run like no tomorrow, then there are those times you get concerned if your going to survival another month. This is why you save every penny for when bad times show up. Spreading ones self thin is not a good position to be in. Yet we all have been their. Established business don't have this problem unless an Alaska oil spill or deep horizon we're to happen. Best of luck.

[@TheWillKelly]

Speaking of litigation and ensuring proper protection, do you have a separate LLC for your media side of the business?

[@MikeAndes]

Yes

[@p3rplex1ty]

It’s been two days where the videos at, don’t stop cause of the lawsuit I know the 300k series is over but I want more content!

[@Lutezy]

Thanks for investing the time and effort in the series. There was a lot of great information and experiences to be learned here. Best luck on your future endeavors Mike!

[@jordankendall86]

I watched all the videos in the "$300k Business in 30 Days" and I would like to see a follow up video(s) on this location/area. If you have already done so, then please post the link to that video or playlist. Thanks.

[@curbappeallawncarellc4263]

You got this. And yeah with most accidents the not a fault will usually claim injuries. Some are ligit and sometimes its must old injuries that have been reactivated and well yo know how that propbably goes.

[@peterjebeles4563]

Hang in there Mike. Actions of others are out of your control. Much love 🙏🙏

[@dirtynewschannel]

I wondered if they’d circle back around and say there was damage after doing all the work that shop could do. Many will do that knowing the frame potentially has an issue. But if it’s very slight it’s an easy and safe repair. I’m sure those attorneys found your social media. However, they will aggressively go after any business. It’s part of the cost of having a name on the side of a vehicle. Great series and good luck with the ambulance chasers

[@RKG64]

Don't pay for the alignment... once the frame shop straightens the front end, they will tell you it needs a front end alignment as they will pull Firestone's line up out of line.....

[@Manc-king]

as a body shop guy a mechanic wouldn't really know till they put the new parts on that the frames bent. a body shop would have to put it on a jig and use a point to point frame alignment measuring system.

[@clonewolffe4937]

I own a Ground maintenance company and find I get swamped by networking with 4 General contractors who I do clean ups for. Then simply ask if the need maintenance. I land 3 new maintenance accounts per week average. And I hire 1 new employee only once demand doubles! That way I can afford to lose costumer’s who aren’t willing to pay premium prices!

[@dabeav1317]

Mike, I saw you talking to Jill about the quote. I know you are from Washington, I am from California but now live in Louisiana. Older people in the south like to be called Mr. Or Mrs. Don't know if you heard people call others Mr. Or Mrs. Talk with your gms in the south, might want command center to talk to people with Mr and Mrs with area codes in the south.

[@strikeking311]

All in all this series has been great. Pretty sure I’ve watched every day. The money situation is not realistic at all though. I would bet your biggest demographic viewer on here can’t just go out and buy a dump trailer, or a new trimmer and chainsaw on the same day, etc. doing it like the common man would relate to many more people. Thank you for all the great content!

[@areyouokay3297]

Most people have decent credit so it is somewhat realistic as long as you’re over 18

Man what a journey. Hey Mike, congrats on this accomplishment. I am going to be doing a similar one. Any advice? I’m not in the lawn care business, we do Mobile Detailing. Getting ready to get a 3rd location about 4 hours from our other locations. Is there any data you checked or things you looked into prior? I’m set to be on location the 15th of Aug. hoping to be able to get the location up and running in a month as well. Thanks for any input in advance!

[@ishnifusmeadle]

So question to franchises/folks with agusta around them (never heard of em but I've watched a few of mikes vids now), is agusta sorta like the walmart or mcdonalds of lawncare? I.e. a more corporate structured, quick, basic(or standard), affordable type of lawn services business or have I just not delved deep enough into the video library to see the other types of services done? I'm by no means trying to make that sound bad (hell just look at how big and profitable those other businesses are!) I'm just trying to get a feel for them.

[@mikegiallombardo3425]

I feel like my favorite show just ended ! Ha! I’ve enjoyed this series.

[@vancepowers6427]

They couldn’t tell the frame was bent because the “bend” is probably 1/8” or some similarly small movement that you can’t tell until you put it on a precision alignment machine

[@vancepowers6427]

Also, I started my own lawn care company this year. Awesome videos man!

[@interesting-]

Usually a frame being bent is a total.

[@dh6984]

I thought the auto shop owner was going to get all the mechanical repairs done except for body work? Then, he comes back saying, "Hey, the frame is bent. You need to go to a frame shop"? He should have sent you to the frame shop first if that's the case.

[@Iam_jardow]

That’s what happens when you say, “go ahead and do whatever, I trust you “. Instead of asking the important questions.

[@amandar4980]

You are too nice, especially to those mechanic

[@Always1fisherman]

On the bent frame, that's typical of a non (or borderline) reputable business that gives an estimate of repairs they are able to do. Even when they are aware of other problems during the inspection, they won't mention them because another company that can do them all and they will lose revenue!

They didn’t tell you the frame was bent because they didn’t know. Auto collision and mechanic are two different trades.

[@Justthemow]

You just said you have a whole bunch of mows right after you said you only have 20 weekly mowing accounts I can do 20 houses a day by my self and I’m 44 years old with a 4 man crew you should be able to knock out 4-5 houses per hour easy so u have 4 hours of mowing per week ;-(

[@jtmcfarland3512]

A maintenance mechanic generally isn’t gonna look at body and frame work, particularly if they’re a franchise. They just don’t have the machines and experience to fix that stuff. I’ve had a frame pulled for $800 within the last couple years. Hopefully you didn’t get “taken to the cleaners”. Bummer bro.

[@mrBDeye]

Many people want to claim injuries in an accident. Why? Attorney’s get money. The injured get free neck massages. It’s a crazy world.

[@nocoder93]

Single fastest growing professional industry in America is contingency law. It really sucks that everyone can sue a business for free but no business can protect themself for free. 9/10 times the insurance settles because litigation has gotten so expensive that it's just cheaper. Who made litigation expensive? Well the same people who get paid by settlements. Seems copacetic...

[@johnblount1347]

Please update! Ill comb through the videos and make sure i didnt just put my foot in mouth.

As far as the accident. Get a front and rear camera set up so when the truck is running its recording. People are shady and there's no better evidence then video

[@MGMG007]

Accident lawsuits are common, but if they can’t prove they actually got then nothing will happen, if it was their fault, then nothing will happen. Their just looking for free money

I was raised old school, we don't sue people.

[@ronjclm8590]

Old school doesn't always matter. A friend of mine was rear ended in a parking lot and swore for years that his neck hurt. It appeared that it did. He visited a chiropractor for a couple of years and got $10k (40 years ago) for pain. 25 years ago, I was pulling up to a stop light in a 3500 flatbed truck and got rearended by a RAM 2500 that was cruising along at 45 mph and didn't notice that he had entered an area with traffic. I had just stopped and I was holding the brake down. My drink jumped out of my cup and I was amazed that I was crushing the back of someone's station wagon. THEN...I realized that I had been PUSHED into the stationwagon. I was a little sore for a few weeks but kept working and didn't try to collect for any injury...I was fine.

[@dh6984]

why shouldn't people sue? We're not talking about a sprinkle of warm coffee on your arm from McDonalds but getting smashed in an intersection. I think Mike said kids were involved.

[@ronjclm8590]

@@dh6984 Of course if your're injured you should sue. There are however too many people that anen't injured and fake one to get money. I saw a story a few years ago. A city bus was in an accident. downtown. At the time of the accident there were 15 passengers on the bus. after the dust settled ...there were 40 people on the bus claiming injury. People often suck.

[@joshstieneker4615]

​@dh6984 I don't think anybody is saying you shouldn't sue, it's the fact that people abuse suing others when they really weren't effected by something. I'm not saying the people involved had no injuries because they may have, but it's doubtful they are life threatening injuries. People can sue for just about anything and it needs to become much harder for them to collect that money.
