Maybe but he’s grown to big for quality..see their trucks around St. Louis a lot.. sniping their customers is easy cuz they are astronomical on price and just hire anyone that has legs. Their yards are mowed maybe a little nicer than the kid down the street. He does have good business sense tho I’ll admit that
I just want to say I've been watching your videos for about a year and I'm only trying to grow my business around a quarter million dollars so a lot of your content wasn't directly towards me but the last 6 months of content I really believe is helpful to anybody who is in the industry I really appreciate your videos keep up the hard work and I love your mindset really helps me out brother
Literally everything I search around starting a lawn care businesses you have a video for! Thanks so much for all the hard work you put into these videos
Broooo the business credit card with the company expenses was the best I heard ever. I always asked how could I rasie the business credit and that’s one way there…. U da man 👨 💯
Dude this video helped me so much as well as many others. I had so many questions on what I needed to do to grow and become a legit business and you just answered them. Keep up the great work.
So, Monthly you'll need roughly, 50$ for general liability insurance, 500$ for business vehicle insurance, and whatever else for gas, equipment etc ? The dang vehicle insurance gotta be so expensive 🤦🏻♂️
Great info, Mike. In many/most states the business is registered through the Secretary of State. DOL much like the UBI is the Washington state specific nomenclature.
Mike thank you so much for sharing these steps to get started. I’m currently trying to start my own lawn care business and I have a Toyota Tundra and an older high end residential husqvarna zero mower that I already own so I think I’m slightly ahead on that end but I didn’t know where to start with the business end of things. This video cleared that up. Thanks again!
Hey Mike, the UBI # must be a state of Washington thing. EIN # is what everyone needs to open a business account no matter where you are in the states & the same whether it’s to open an account in a brick & mortar bank or a Fintec ( online ) bank unless it’s under their SS# ( DBA). 1 or more employees then you would also need a business #. People would have to get that from their local office & then they would be subject to Workman’s comp b/c you now have an employee (s). Anyway hope that helped. Other than that you were spot on.

You will be fine if you put “lawn care” in your name
@@MikeAndes even for thinking 5 to 10 years ahead where if I go into landscape, hardscape, then eventually tree work? Just thinking long term as well
This really helped but sounds like a lot of money you put into insurance.
How to start as a kid?

You can try to find customers who has equipment you can use until you can buy your own, that or work another job to save up that initial money
