I started watching your videos a couple months ago when I first started solo mowing… I started on home advisor, now I have 5 star reviews, 35 customers, I have business insurance! Things are going great!!! I love watching your progress. Figured I’d share some of mine!
@@teflon_don93 same website and platform, different name, it works very well!! I still use it, turn it off when I’m busy. Lots of $$ to be made but you spend it to make it. That’s for sure
I enjoy your videos for the most part and really enjoy hearing Michael. However you have a really bad habit of asking him a question and then cutting him off. Let him finish a sentence before you cut him off. Very annoying because as you say he has great info so let him tell us.
I don’t believe the salesman explanation for why they stop carrying Spartan Mowers especially when they start selling Encore lawnmowers which are residential and pro-summer mowers.
You sure interrupt others' thoughts often, But, I'm glad I stuck it through on this one. I had never heard of Encore. Going to do some more research and possibly go with this over a Wright Stander B. Only using it residentially on a 1 acre lot. Tired of pushing and dont want to sit down.
So a Chinese government Billionaire oligarch, Bought a Privately owned American company, and now you are selling this Chinese products, Because of price point? American competitors It's hard to compete with a Chinese government billionaire oligarch. But I get it it's all about profits..only loyalty to the dollar👏 Until it turns into the yen?
All that you need to do on the Encores or really any other mower that has sealed spindle bearings is to take off the seals on the bearings that goes on the inside and pack it with grease first because more than likely it doesn’t have any in it and put fittings on them if they don’t already and if they do make sure that the grease can get inside the spindle and then drill a small hole in it and put a screw in it and when you grease it take out the screw so that you will know when it’s full plus it will push out the old grease and they will last forever or at least a very long time. I’ve got an older one that I did that to and the bearings have over 6 hundred hours on them and they are still fine. You can do it in a hour or two and it won’t cost hardly anything if it costs anything at all. There’s several videos on UA-cam that shows how to do it. I don’t understand why they even put fittings on them when they have sealed bearings because they are useless if they can’t get any grease into them.
Wait he drops a brand because it doesn't fit in with his current customers base but was selling about 11 machines a month. Then he starts selling a prosumer machine? Makes no sense to me but I'm not in the mower selling business.
Sometimes in business, it is better to be focused on meeting the need of your primary customer. His focus was on commercial customers rather than general retail which requires different marketing as well as support approach. This is quite common in business actually. In the long run, if your core focus is profitable you are usually better doing this than trying to do a one size fits all.
I am interested in is which mowers have problems, which mowers dont. Which mowers you sell the most of … which do you sell the least of and why. New Mower features, etc.. I really could care less how many lawn mowers you sold last week/month
There isnt currently, but last time I spoke to my Wright rep, they where hard at work on it. Even being 4hrs away, Michael @ Master Mowers is worth the trip!
Titan is a rebadged TimeCutter HD, don’t let the name fool you. Titan Max has a few upgrades but both Titan and MAX are acreage estate mowers. You’d have to be in ZMaster 2000 before it’s considered commercial.
Delivered a nice even cut, has the super tight turning ability ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx1VWTrayKBdCKAjzAcZ_Eg4dhHTae3LkN also recommend I was looking for, and is just a blast to drive. It takes a little bit to get used to driving one after driving a normal tractor style, but once you've got it, you've got it. If you're cutting lines, you have to be careful spinning the mower around or the back tire will dig a bare spot. Just take it nice and slow during the turn and then it's back to full throttle across the yard!
I have been in the Small Engine industry for over 15 years. Always worked on the distribution side and ripped several brands. I have never seen a lack of inventory like I am seeing this year. I know of dealers who ordered on the booking programs last year that still have not gotten inventory. It’s amazing how bad the situation is right now.
@@davidjudd221 No actually they stopped that over a year ago... I think it's all that PPP money, That the DOJ is looking in too.. There's gonna be a lot of people going to jail here shortly, They're going to need money to build jails..
I call BS on why he dropped the Spartan line of mowers. What difference does it make if the customer is commercial cutter or a Homeowner? You’re selling mowers and making money either way, his reason made no sense! Did I miss something ?
That’s what he said but if you notice after he gave his reason for dropping Spartan Mowers he proceeds to introduce the new line of mowers and the very first model he introduces us to is a mower for homeowners. So he basically contradicted himself!?!
I agree, his reasoning was very weak. I have a Spartan SRT XD, I mow commercially. This mower works very well on slopes, the cut is great and the price was right. The suspension is awesome, front and rear. I really like that it is made here in the USA!
@@reidzr2s10 My friend sells the Encore. The margin is good. I collect old Lesco mowers so I have no need for the new stuff, however the behind the scenes prices are low.
@@dcmcclew Encore has a good margin for the dealers. Overall, the companies that tell you you can't buy US made have switched over to higher margin products,. Eventually the US companies fold and their predictions of "can't" come true.
Super knowledgeable dealer. Didn't know the history of the Encore name. Didn't know they were Chinese - pass Super video - Hope you pop in again from time to time and pick his thoughts on service work or unusual repairs.

Those Encore machines are a compelling option, if price is your big concern, but from what I've seen so far (what I've watched and read about), they're respectable as far as how they hold up and cut. Yeah, it would be nice if they were still US owned, but...well, here we are. A Z930M from JD will cost you $14k right now in 2024. With that 3 yr unlimited hour warranty, I could see some commercial buyers using them 3 years and then trading for a new one.
Very informative, just have to ask yourself do you want to feed the Chinese billionaire and company or a American billionaire and company with another brand?? At those prices it’s hard to pass up!
That 32" Encore goes for 6,000 up here in the northeast. I've been using mine for close to a year now. Only issue I have had is the nut that holds the sway bar to the lower/Raise deck arm kept coming lose allowing the sway bar to come off. Easy fix though. The cut has been great.
5Gs 2 years ago. Significant price increase since then. $6500 to $7500 now. More now than some other more well known brands. I feel I missed out on that great price point.
I have a encore 60 inch that’s moving very slowly at times not even moving. Getting a lot of resistance on the bars moving forward and back. Any suggestions please

If they made ICB guess it is called u could quick attach basket to any basic pallet it would really help no wasted or little wasted shipping smack, esp if crate/baskets came in short med or tall crates. All standard crank them out cheap mass production then they basket nest tops on 1 pallet to go back 5 or 1o baset tops still fit on 1 standard pallet to return just sitting side by side by side many uses & pallets if cheap kind need not return left front ship not returning prt.
I talked to Micheal last about a mower a few months back but just haven't been able to make that 1:15 trip. Maybe I would if I knew big Nick was going to be there!😀
I was working in commercial mowing 12 years ago for a company (I was actually considering buying at the time, but figured out it is better to build your own than buy). The owner was an absolute cheapskate but exclusively used Encores. They were incredibly durable, long lasting, and in many cases could mow where many other brands at that time couldn't due to their design and weight. the best part about them though was their cut. This was before they had been bought out and they already cut like an Exmark back then. The deck for them was very well designed and you could easily stripe without a kit, the internal updraft and flow were so efficient that you rarely had to double cut except for very overgrown yards. We could take them into ditches that others couldn't and the placement of the muffler helped avoid leaf fires that our competition would start. The only real criticism I had was the placement of one grease zerk that required you to either put the mower on a lift or jack it up and crawl underneath that was underneath the middle of the mower. I believe they have since corrected this issue with redesign. These were underappreciated mowers then and I'm not surprised that they are underappreciated now. They cut so well and were so durable that even if they haven't changed a thing to keep up with current advancements, I would still consider them my first choice for a mower now.
There's absolutely NO LOGIC in his reasoning for dropping Spartan and I'm no Spartan fan btw..He always has something negative to say about his competition..Seems like his way of making his "Wrights" look and sound better is to run the other brands down..never does he mention how bad the cut quality is on those Wrights...THEY SUCK!!
Bought a 52 inch zk a month ago and have nothing but issues with the cut. The dealership and Ed fixed it for the most part but it still misses weeds occasionally at the right center of the deck. Seems like I made a $12k mistake
The very first commercial mower I bought 25 years ago was a 48 Encore hydro walkbehind, used that mower for 7 years without a single issue, would hate to guess how many yards I mowed with that mower, sold that bought another new one just like it , used it for 6 years without any issues, then went to a stand on Wright, then Exmark, Scag and now back to Wright, Encore used to build a Great mower, I will be surprised if the Chinese made steel Encore is any good, I guess we shall see.
Just discovered your channel and what a great video! Lots of information and very enjoyable. Your blessed to have such a knowledgeable dealer! Thank you for the great content!
I only see homeowners use spartan... I saw maybe one commercial guy use it at the y that's it so makes sense to not sale spartan mower if homeowners only using them... encore been around a long time that's mainly basically your start out business kinda mower or a back up mower I find these used for 1,500 to 1,000 bucks on market place love what this guy saying he knows his stuff! But like I said john deere dixie chopper grasshopper ferris how I roll great video ninja 🥷
Nice video, I learned a lot!! (Try not to interrupt so often when he's explaining stuff. He was starting to say something several times but was cut off) No big deal, you were excited I think. That is again for sharing. I've never heard of Encore and now I'll be looking into them. I'm just starting off my company and still need a smaller stander
Totally agree....Let the man with the answers and knowledge finish his sentence before interrupting him and distracting him from the question he was already addressing. Excited or not, it's just rude to interrupt others while they are speaking, plus we are trying to hear the mans answer and your voice drowns him out as you are closest to the microphone. Other than that, I enjoy your videos. : )
F D Kees ( Husqvarna ) is the original mower company in Beatrice Nebraska then you got Exmark and Encore both were employees of F D Kees 👍👍 old farts like me know
tHanks for adding this. The history of these companies is interesting. I understand Scag and Wright have some sort of past? I'm curious to who made my Lesco floating deck mowers....I believe Cub Cadet had a similar model. Tell us more! tHanks again for posting
@@sgninjas you can check it out on social blade but there’s this other freaking kid that has your same exact channel name as his channel and you should terminate his channel Just to let you know.

I own a encore caliber, Kawasaki engine, zt54 Hydra gear. I gave seven Grand for it 4 years ago, it has 1700 hours on it now. Otherwise I love my encore caliber 60 inch deck Kawasaki engine zt54 hydro gear.
Yeah, our dealers where I live won't sell commercial mowers to homeowners and won't sell pro-spec mowers to commercial operators. Weird since I wanted a commercial grade mower but since I don't have a commercial lines business I can't purchase a new commercial grade model. It amazes me that dealers are literally turning away homeowner customers and only catering to commercial operators. Def sucks for a the large acreage homeowner like myself who desires a commercial grade zero turn mower.
Easy to get around. Find any LCO, befriend them. Tell them you need a new mower, get them to buy it under their business and just transfer it to you. Set up an escrow arrangement.
I absolutely love you calling us Ninjas You crack me the ...up..... Heeeeyyyyyy you Ninjas....I can't get enough of that... You do amazing work...too bad you live in another state I'd hire you in a heartbeat .....perfect work....

Yes, whatever ZTR you can get that is in stock and not subject to supply chain issues :)

No, it's all about what the customers will buy. When you can hire your grass mown for 3 years for what you pay for a mower, it no longer makes sense.
All that you need to do on the Encores or really any other mower that has sealed spindle bearings is to take off the seals on the bearings that goes on the inside and pack it with grease first because more than likely it doesn’t have any in it and put fittings on them if they don’t already and if they do make sure that the grease can get inside the spindle and then drill a small hole in it and put a screw in it and when you grease it take out the screw so that you will know when it’s full plus it will push out the old grease and they will last forever or at least a very long time.

tHanks for adding this. The history of these companies is interesting. I understand Scag and Wright have some sort of past? I'm curious to who made my Lesco floating deck mowers....I believe Cub Cadet had a similar model.
Tell us more! tHanks again for posting

@@sgninjas you can check it out on social blade but there’s this other freaking kid that has your same exact channel name as his channel and you should terminate his channel
Just to let you know.
You can check out social blade and when you do go to the social blade settings and go to the casino mode and put the sound mode all the way up and then click save so every time somebody subscribed It makes it sound.
@@sgninjas CONGRATULATIONS ON 50,000 SUBS
He probably didn't have as much profit margin on the Spartan as some other brands.
Very valuable information here
Why did I click on this
$8500 for a non commercial, 2nd hand mower is ridiculous.
Do you think you can get to the subject at hand instead of the bullsh!t?
I own a encore caliber, Kawasaki engine, zt54 Hydra gear. I gave seven Grand for it 4 years ago, it has 1700 hours on it now. Otherwise I love my encore caliber 60 inch deck Kawasaki engine zt54 hydro gear.
Great information brother! 💯
Thanks bro 👊🏻
Seem to be hurt over dropping Spartan. You would think he ran over your dog.
So everything that's going on between China and the United States, what's going to happen if you can get that steel shipped to the US?
....WHAT'S THAT JUNGLE SOUND??
Yeah, our dealers where I live won't sell commercial mowers to homeowners and won't sell pro-spec mowers to commercial operators. Weird since I wanted a commercial grade mower but since I don't have a commercial lines business I can't purchase a new commercial grade model. It amazes me that dealers are literally turning away homeowner customers and only catering to commercial operators. Def sucks for a the large acreage homeowner like myself who desires a commercial grade zero turn mower.
Easy to get around. Find any LCO, befriend them. Tell them you need a new mower, get them to buy it under their business and just transfer it to you. Set up an escrow arrangement.
Get a fake business card made up.
@@gump1005 Right. Especially when they ask you for your tax number.
@@TheFlatlander440 I'll tell them the number is 42.
I'd find another dealer. My money spends the same.
Very knowledgeable! I would pick his brains for hours 😂
Thanks for sharing this with us take care

I like my 2015 Hustler Raptor sd for my 1 acre yard.
