  • Today we're hanging with Christian of C&I Services LLC in West Chicago and seeing his brand new trailer setup, as well as a tour of a recent landscape job they're working on.
    It's been incredible seeing the growth his company these last few years, and this time it's been 2 years since we've gotten an update. Christian is a great role model for young teenagers everywhere who have the ambition to start a lawn care business of their own.

    Brian if you want a unique interview you should interview two black brothers ages 12 and 14 about their lawn care business. They are very well spoken, clean cut, and making a difference in their neighborhood. I told them they ought to touch base with you. Their RUclips channel is Crosse Cutz. Check them out.

    Brian, thanks for all the videos and podcasts. You've helped me grow my business, very much appreciate your hard work. Fyi, and you've mentioned it before, your videos are not showing in my feed, at least not on the day you are posting them.

    Kind of off topic but I’m going to hit the lawn care game come spring pretty hard and trying to figure out how to set up a minimum charge per yard for a trim, mow, blow. Don’t want to be price gouging but also don’t won’t to be leaving a bunch of money left on the table when quoting jobs

    • @BriansLawnMaintenance
      @BriansLawnMaintenance  Год назад +2

      $40 minimum for a postage stamp and it goes up from there. $75-$90/hr is a great start, or $90-$120 an acre depending on the lot. Those are some great places to start until you get a solid budget in place and then can work backwards.

    I wish you would have explored his diesel comment. A Ford diesel runs about $8,000 more. Diesels are more expensive to repair, and many need repairs more frequently. You will get about 35% better fuel mileage, but diesel fuel is more expensive. You get a much greater towing capacity, but most commercial users get no where near a diesel's max - a gas will do just fine. I would like to know how he did his cost/benefit analysis to lead him to believe a diesel would have been a better choice for him.

    • @BriansLawnMaintenance
      @BriansLawnMaintenance  Год назад +3

      My opinion is get the biggest one you can afford! Leaves are a lot of work and the smaller leaf blowers just don’t hold up to using them for a business and commercial work. You’ll want the big ones if you want to get the job done in a fast manner!

      7.3 is standard starting in 2020... it'll be fine. Diesel maintence/repair costs & DEF systems are nothing but expensive nightmares, especially getting parts right now.
      There is a bigger picture than the diesel vs gas dick measuring contest
