MY STORY:
After serving six years in the United States Army as a Staff Sergeant, I knew that I wanted to get into the world of business. Consequently, I decided to work on crafting my sales skills.
In 2020, I was in a Sales role for a marketing start-up in Austin, TX, and on the side, I would mow a few yards for some extra cash. Keep in mind, I had a 21” push mower, an electric leaf blower, and an electric string trimmer folded into the back of my wife’s 2011 Ford Focus.
After giving my life to Jesus Christ on Easter in 2021, a woman named Tamalia Scott told me that she believed God wanted me to pursue lawn care full-time.
After a few sleepless nights and endless prayer, I decided to quit my sales job and pursue lawn care full-time in April of 2021. Since then, by the grace of God, we have surpassed $1,000,000 in sales and have two lawn care locations throughout Central Texas. Over the next 10 years, it is our goal to have 12 locations throughout Central Texas.
Throughout the journey of owning a lawn care company, I have learned MANY valuable business principles through trial and error. It has now become a passion of mine to help smaller lawn care businesses scale their companies past $500,000 in annual revenue.

    I’m glad you walked him through that close rate to price. Because it doesn’t add up. Our close rate would be insanely high at those rates. Also wonder if it was like a question I recently asked. Is that is lead to close rate or actual estimates sent out after vetting close rate.

    • @TheSamGustin

    Are these bi weekly or god forbid monthly. If they are weekly 870 divided by 16 then by 4 cuts would only be 13.59 a cut. lets hope its not that low it should be 2 1/2 to 3 times that per cut.

    If the first lawn took 20 minutes how much time is spent mowing with a stand on mower, and combined time weed, edge and blowing. It's currently taking me 20 minutes to mow 5,700 sq ft property with 1,000 sq ft home with single car garage. Then 15 minutes WEB (weed,edge,blow) for 35 min service time. I'm trying to decide if the stand on is going to be worth it.

    • @TheSamGustin
      @TheSamGustin 2 місяці тому

      What I’ve found is that for properties underneath 4k sqft, the stand on mower doesn’t save much time (if any). HOWEVER, it saves your body on fatigue. If I was a solo operator, I would purchase a stand on mower so that I could squeeze in an extra lawn or 2 per day due to my body not being as fatigued.

    I thought sales tax was only assessed when you are selling a product, not a service. Do you charge sales tax?

    • @TheSamGustin
      @TheSamGustin 3 місяці тому

      This is dependent on your state. For Texas, lawn care services are required to collect sales tax. The only service we offer that does NOT require sales tax collection, is pet waste removal.
