    Hi Chris thank you for the reply. Still working but it’s quite now not many lawn cuts maybe one more. 👍

      It'll naturally slow now as people tighten up for Christmas ect. It'll soon be 2022 and the phone will go nuts once again

    Good ethics Chris. I think you went about it the right way. If you went in hard straight away they may have dug their heels in.

      Your right. I can be very stubborn at times and wouldn't let it go if they didn't remove it. Hope this doesn't/ hasn't happened to you guys 👍

    I really enjoy you videos and have been subscribing for sometime now. U put a lot of effort into them and I do enjoy you talking on a bit so keep going. Your work on the gardens is first class hence your customer portfolio. When u txted me the number of customers u had I couldn’t believe it. Better a smaller number with regular work. Keep the videos comming

      Thanks so much for the support and kind words. It truly does make it worth while.
      For me a smaller quality client base works better than rushing to lots of smaller jobs. Everyone works very different.
      Thank you again 👍👍

    Been there Chris. It just proves their work is probably sub standard as why would you pinch another persons photo if you had good photos of your own work.

    yes it was my game changer vid. I have had this done a number of times, might talk about it myself, on photographers forums water marks are a bone of contention.

    Hi Chris someone taking your pictures isn’t on at all. Hope this is sorted now and doesn’t happen again to you. You have always reply to my questions I have asked you and it has been very helpful to me so thank you for that. Look forward to seeing your next video of what you going to do. Take care 👍👍

      It's reassuring others agree with me pal. Am sure it's all sorted but I've kept screen shots of everything just encase something pops up and they are needed.
      Am always happy to help when/if I can pal. Hope your keeping busy 👍👍

    Hello mate, completely totally off topic for the video. But I’m a self employed gardener myself. I had a thought about offering gritting of paths and driveways for people. Just wondering if you’ve ever dabbled in that or know anyone who has, and is it profitable basically??

    • @TheCountryCottageGardener
      @TheCountryCottageGardener  2 года назад +2

      Hi pal. It's not something I've ever done tbh and can't say I've seen it advertised much (domestically) in the UK. That could be a good thing as it could be a un tapped market or its not offered as it's not profitable. If you feel there is a market for it in you area I can't see it needing massive investment to try out. Most lawn care seed/fert spreaders would work for large areas. I'd give it a go with a small investment as possible 👍

    Someone taking your pictures and passing it as their work, is plainly deceiving potential customers, you build a portfolio, the same as building your business, starting out, is no excuse to take others work pictures.
    Iv had a couple of clips of video nicked, not nice.
    Looking forward to seeing the coming videos
    👍👍

      It's all part of a natural progression building a portfolio up. Thanks for watching and your kind words 👍

    Yeah I don’t agree with this, if someone takes your images without asking then that’s just not on, it’s not so much about the picture but them saying “this is my work” is nothing but a lie and disrespectful to the person who actually did it.
    If a company or person has even wanted to share my work, they have always asked me first, that’s the way it should be 💪🏽

    • @TheCountryCottageGardener
      @TheCountryCottageGardener  2 года назад +2

      Your right pal. i couldn't think of the words at the time but it's the principal of the actions and very disrespectful.
      On a side note am enjoying your podcasts. Had a good bombshell this week too 👍👍
