So many gems here! 💎 I don't even have a landscaping business but the lessons can be applied to any service business (mine is auto detailing)...thanks for sharing!
Dude I can help fund your auto detailing business in order for you to grow it and take to the next level
One of the best landscape business videos of all time.
That is a tall order! LOL Thank you!
Can you make a video on how to go from solo to an actual crew?
This is freaking great content, this is like going to school for a trade you love but it’s free
Without the white board behind you I’d be LOST. I appreciate you teaching & sharing information brother.
“Where as now there is windows broken everyday across Augusta lawn care” 🧐🤨😅 just teasing, love your content man.
😂
Great Information. You have to set goals. Awesome video. Thanks for your time and effort in this video.
Progress over perfection always! Deploying capital is a great idea thanks for sharing!
Great content as always. Hello from Pennsylvania. Thanks for sharing.
4:47 progress over perfection
Awesome video!
Will you make a video or tell me here the order you recommend hiring non billable people, and at what size the company typically is?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Mike. It's inelastic price sensitivity. If it's elastic they will leave for a similar alternative. Great talk
great video! I'm entering my third year in business.. this information just blew my mind away!! Thanks for making this. I have a better perspective now.
Brother if your ever in need of growing your landscape company feel free to contact me I specialize in funding landscape businesses I’m talking amounts to the tune of 500k or better in 2 days no credit check needed if you interested reply to me
Thanks. Good info /video
Amazing video bro 👍
Thank you for this!
I’m in my 2nd year and have went through 15 employees. I pay more than anyone in my area. I have as many hours as they want. They all leave after the second day or 1 week. Best of luck boys!
Alex allow me to help fund your landscape company with the capital you can obtain you can invest in payroll , marketing inventory or hell even leisure it’s up too you and the only requisites to qualify are to make at least 10k a month in company gross and have had at least 1 yr in business and you already have 2 lol

Thanks mike
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
I wish the company i work for did open book sharing, i find myself reaching out to past disgruntled managers or completely separate companies if i really want the private info haha
THNGS
Very clear. Easy to understand video. Even I understand it. Lol
@20:00 cheers❤

I offer mowing, clean ups, and tree work. That’s all I’m going after.
Watch more of his content to understand why focusing on one service will make you more profitable.
Honestly I would only be running 2 trucks cause having more than that must be so stressful to take care of
I wish my boss did OPEN BOOK MANAGEMENT.
So what kind of mower should I get?
Especially just starting out, you should be able to use a simple push mower, preferably one with a bag to collect clippings.
Any works . That doesn’t matter. What’s matters is profit. You can literally use and mower, edger, weed Wacker. Doesn’t matter at all
Mike, with P4P do you want the guys to be strictly “performance-based pay” and if so, do you share the percentage with the guys?
Yes. We share all numbers with the Team
How do you better job what direction do you do do you walk a yard with a measure and tape or would a whale
Fuck brother........I needed today.
So we made 480k last year, it’s me and 4 others guys super solid team. We are looking to break into 500k this year. My question is how much money should I have in our business savings and checking. I try to keep at least 50k on the checking and $250k on the savings. Everything is paid off except a ditch witch mini skid steer. I truly don’t know if that’s enough to keep in the bank. Usually a month I spend about 15k-20k+ and make about 40-45k a month. I should keep saving? Should I look into investing? Only major investment I’ve done is a 24acre property with a huge shop for my business.
Any feed back would be great!
$250K in business savings account is very solid! Usually I shoot for at 3 months of expenses set aside for reserves… but if you are growing fast I’ve gone as low as 1 month
Dude you gross 15-20 k a month do you realize you easily qualify for a cash advance I work on behalf of Rok financial we specialize in funding landscape companies don’t miss out on in opportunity to obtain 500k or better in funding no credit check let me know if you interested you can get funded in 2 days
Well Mike….. some of us ACTUALLY LOVE doing this work every day…. So your entry to this vid , just offended THOUSANDS of people who LOVE WORKING… it’s not a bad thing. Not all of us want the mental stress of what YOU HAVE. Been there and done that 😎💪🔥🇺🇸 I OWN MY LIFE… don’t need a BILLION DOLLAR HEADACHE with 500 children in the field working and making mistakes 😂😂 BUT, I’m sure THOUSANDS of other viewers will BENEFIT GREATLY from this vid. Keep up the hard work….
He said in the video there's nothing wrong with this if thats what you want to do. He's a lawn care guy himself
@@slowrider30 it’s all good, I watch a few of his vids time to time over the years. He’s a good guy for sure. I’ve run large scale companies in the past… it’s not for everyone. Wasn’t bashing him, just wanted him to think about that perspective from other life experiences and through others eyes 👍😎
I agree with you. I relistened to the recording and the first part didn’t come across right. My bad. Most people SHOULD keep business small. They will be happier and potentially more profitable. Thanks for insight
@@MikeAndes Like I said Mike, I know you are a good person, no bashing intended. It was just the delivery words that could have been different… I just know that so many Family Businesses, Husband and Wife Teams, Brothers that operate together, etc in our Green Industry and Farming and so on. We go through the same process and planning and chaos as anyone else that owns and runs a business. After my ambitions as a young man were accomplished, I learned and realized that the Profit Margin for this industry and probably others is good when you only have 1-6 employees. But to get to a TRUE NEXT LEVEL of Profit, a person must have 10 or more fully stocked crews for the actual owner to start making MORE PROFIT in his/her pocket. So, I made the decision to start solo, as a perfectionist at the age of 35. My business will grow to a certain point and then level out as it has now to a steady flow of year round income. So, over 29 years in the field working, I’ve gone from $8 per hour income to $80 per hour income. No matter how big our ambitions are… it’s ALL ABOUT EFFORT 👍😎👍🇺🇸 Keep on Rolling Brother stay Strong Minded
Don't think your first point is fair Mike. I see your point but no. If you have to file for a business license you own a business. Don't down play one man shows in any trade.
Definitely NOT trying to down play or discourage. I also know that many young people start a “business” and then get depressed because they realize they simply work 14 hours a day doing the same thing they would do if they were an employee. Nothing wrong with it if someone intentionally wants to stay small. I think that is a good move and can be profitable! I didn’t mean to down play. In listening to the recording, I see how it could be taken that way.
How does taking in $100,000 in revenue just count as a "job"? Even at a high price point at $50/yard, it would require 2000 yards cut per year. That's slightly over 5 yards every single day of the year. Accounting for winter, that comes to an average of more than 7 lawns cut every day during spring, summer, and fall. Below the $100k point, hiring an actual employee doesn't seem practical taking into account wages, insurance, and taxes. Maybe I'm just short-sighted, but it seems the only way to do this would be to hire contractors who agree to take a percentage of each job.
👍
Mike a real niGGa no 🧢
Do you consider trimming shrubbery part of mowing? I do grasscuts, blowing and edging as part on my business all as one!
We usually do bush trimming on different visits than mowing crew
Even if you work by yourself it's still a business you're just a small superprise or business you pay your taxes you do your deductions but food on table and so on so for you to say it's not a business is incorrect
Elasticity 😭
E la sti city😂
I want to spend 9 minutes on the phone with someone who has done this already. How can I contact you?
