Kid runs a tight operation. I will say, if you’re another 21 year old kid seeing this and you’re NOT doing 5 million dollars in revenue, that’s completely fine. This kid had a great opportunity with his dad and growing up wealthy, which is a lot of the reason he’s able to do this. He’s still a beast of an operator, but don’t let comparison steal your pride in your own business.
Good point. I'm 40 n starting business for myself first time ever. I've had noone around me in my life to show me ANYTHING. I'm doing good enough after a couple years but very hard finding people to mentor you.

No one should worry about s corps or llc until your buisness turns profit or you need a legal entity for payment processor it's just a way of lowering personal liability and you can file the paperwork at through your state and state website save money.
Starting an LLC or S Corp after reaching profitability or needing liability protection is sensible, but early formation has benefits too. An LLC offers liability coverage and simpler management, while an S Corp can lower self-employment taxes for higher income. Consulting a professional ensures you choose the best fit as your business grows.
Using pre-tax contributions in an LLC or S Corp can reduce taxable income during high-earning years, while post-tax contributions like Roth options can ease taxes in retirement, creating a balanced tax strategy.

What a wonderful kid that wants to do something. Wow, I am amazed keep up the great work 21 years old. I am very proud of you. And I don't even know you.
I'm quite familiar with the area Jupiter/Tequesta Fl. I grew up near there. If he has 19 commercial accounts there, it is very reasonable. However, with both parents in business, mom in real estate, dad in business funding it's obvious that that was a great guide system. Properly trained, well paid, attention to detail teams, and a good managed system, it's very easy to understand. Congratulations on his successful operation. 👏🏼💪🏼
no bulk mulch in FL??? huh? I was part owner of a mulch company here in FL.. We sold thousands of yards of mulch every year. We sold it by 100 yard walking floor loads, and loaded blower trucks daily....
The truck set up is nice and super efficient..he doesnt have 4000 gas cans to keep track of everywhere and a trash storage bin right on the truck..this kid is going to be a millionaire in no time..congrats🎉🎉🎉😊😊!!
kids born into it and not to mention its flordia anyone can move their today and start a lawn care bussiness and get clients.. stick to it and boom eveyone always needs some service and its a compettive market.
Yea putting all the money to buy trucks, equipments, trailer, paying people beacuse at first you don’t see that you getting the money more like investing
Where I grew up in Long Island NY I started a lawn buisness after High School. I purchased basic equipment to get started along with a truck. It made money but didn't go too far. Especially in winters. It was tough. My friend the same age started his lawn buisness the same time. He got fully outfitted with new trucks, enclosed trailers and equipment from his parents funding. Then he got accounts from their politician friends and family connections in the community. His parents purchased companies going out of buisness to obtain their accounts. He became a millionaire while I sold my buisness in frustration. It's not what you know, it's who you know that can get you to success plus being born into money helps. So at age 21 and having those connections is how he got successful like my friend did. You can bearly get a credit card at 21 for $1000 never mind those fleet of trucks, equipment and a 5 acre nursery.
All those rules and especially those signs like the washing one seem like a TON of micromanaging which leads to resentment and people ultimately leaving.
That’s exactly what I was thinking, trying to squeeze as much as he can if he’s the type of “If you won’t do it I’ll find someone that can” boss he’s going to be in trouble keeping good help.
I’ve worked for all the big companies here in central Florida . I used to work for one won’t mention name, but short story so I won’t bore you guys is they would give you certain time at each property per day literally. If you had equipment go down employee slacking you still had to finish it at that time or face being fired. They also would not allow stops at any store for nothing. They wanted to squeeze every once of strength out of your body before you went home. Lasted four months and left I just can’t work under conditions that are setup for you to fail everyday you go to work. Employees turnover was high do to many rules. You will be in business, but once you hit the top that’s it only way to go is down seen many companies cap out, and closed down shops to downsize. Another big point they contracted people from Mexico or else they wouldn’t have enough workers to do any job right. Peace out keep grinding.
@@cristobaldelacruz142 I’ve also been a part of a company like this and it’s horrible, gps on trucks. Not a minute over your break, having the manager on your ass demanding work to be done while he sits in his truck all day. Sad part is this company is still doing this I left in 2016 and people keep saying it’s run the same way. They also prey on desperste people
I’m the same age and I help my mum. I’d love to do what he’s doing once she’s back on her feet. Good for you Austin good luck and hope you grow even bigger!!
I used to be a general contractor and always dreamt of scaling up my business and not having to do the physical work, but I just couldn’t figure it out and this young man makes me feel stupid. He is amazing them mindset, and his psychology and his execution is flawless. It seems wow just to know he’s only 21 years old.
Perhaps he did have "daddy's money," but at least he's making moves rather than being a typical trust fund baby. His work ethic is very impressive, regardless of his age.
He is a smart young man. He no's how to run a lawn care business. Also keeping on top of his workers to make sure there doing what needs to be done. Started small but climbing now.
You can tell he’s smart, dad’s money or not, he knows the vocabulary and the numbers and is calculated. Boomers and gen Xers need to know that just cause your dad loves you and supports you, it doesn’t mean you don’t know your stuff. If he stays hungry, persistence, and diligent, he will be wealthy young man, that any dad should be proud of.
Plz reconsider using Roundup. My Uncle used Roundup in the Conservancy and landed up Dying from non Hodgkin Pneumonia! My Aunt is left w/o a husband all in a effort in controlling tree growth along our River ( The Rio Grande) plz reconsider its use. Someone says in Europe it is mixed w/ different chemical formula to prevent deaths! Be educated w / this snd how it affects your crews! Like your operation!
Install 12v fridges on you're trucks, save time when you guys always getting ice, pkus they can keep a lunch and drinks cold for multiple days, i have them on my trucks, guys love them
I really believe that when we are born into this world we have it or don't have it ,the majority of us just go to work until we get old and retired and there's the other ones who know what they want at a very young age and do it, i really believe we all have a dream to make something big in life but we don't go beyond that dream maybe fear or not enough self confidence but here is a young man who did it , God bless him.
Dude. Its like being a businessman is in your blood. You must have come from a business family - or very poor family and worked your way very hard to get up to where you are. God Bless You
Heck yeah representin florida and i love the young guys and gals succeding. I couldnt imagine making that kinda of money so young. But thats what sets people different. This is the now and furture of our industry.
Very efficient operation, guy is squared away… he’s a business owner not a landscaper and it will pay dividends someday. He would be successful in any business he starts.
This is an amazing story & he's doing many things right. I'm very impressed with him at his age. I use to teach Intro to Business in high school & always encouraged entrepreneurship above all. Having a story like this would have been great but he would have still been in grade school at that time. lol I did see a couple things I'd like to highly suggest to look into & hope you will pass the suggestions/concerns along. #1 would be "Safety First." He mentioned in the beginning... "Round up," which greatly concerns me since it's so toxic to the environment & cancerous to humans & pets. I would hope he'd find a good alternative, preferably a natural product (vinegar, dawn soap, water, salt, etc.). Also #2 when you got to the high pitch ringing segment I didn't notice hearing protection on the young man. He may have had some under the wrap, but if not, that should be a must. Both of those alone could cost him greatly years later if these guys try to sue him for hearing loss or medical issues due to the chemicals & THAT could cost him everything he worked so hard to build up. Plus the cost to his workers as well. Other than that, this young man is on the right path to great long term success.
I dont care who his dad is.. This alone is a blessing. His parents set him up for success. He ran with it! This is what family is for. Alot of us come from families that dont get it. This is how it should be. I wish i came from the type of family he has.
A smooth-running business, indeed! Re: Bottles water for your employees: ☢️Please do not store the bottled water for employees near the toxic "Roundup®/glyphosate" & other fertilizers, fungicides, etc., because it could cause health problems for employees. Those toxic chemicals can permeate through the plastic water bottles, even if it's sitting across the opposite wall of the water bottles, in the storage house.
That’s a WHOLE lot of privilege, that much is undeniable. He most certainly wouldn’t be where he’s at if it wasn’t for his source of upfront funding and contracts. It’s the way he uses this privilege that makes him very respectable. I grew up in a wealthy area and I know tons of people my age/young adults that just sit around living off their trust funds. None of that here. This guy saw an opportunity and took it. He gets out and puts in the work, and imo he is deserving of the success. So while he has had a ton of privilege here, this dude is very respectable. It’s a little wack he doesn’t let his people stop for food though. If you want good employees that stay around for a long time you do need to treat them well, while balancing COGS of course. That’s a fine line to walk and it’s constantly moving.
Employees have to leave their keys, they can't go to buy lunch if they forgot it and there's a limit to refueling in case they'd fuel their own vehicles? So much distrust in this regime and I bet it's a horrible work environment with lots of workers coming and going.
Impressive to run a company of that size but cmon man there’s no way he built it up from the ground . There’s absolutely no way his body could handle those summers .
What the young man learned os not even taight to kids in school and should be he is doing an excellent job and love the key organization he has everything dialed in correctly. That os a company you want to work for. Cant wait to see the second video.
I don't know how close your bids for jobs are to your competitors but if you gave your crews some leniency and estimated 15 bags/hr for one guy instead of 20, you might not work them to death come busy season. Your turnover might improve
Man that is awesome I been in this field for 24 years and I’m impressed and i wanna move down to Florida so bad lol Michigan sucks for our type of work lol
Warmer climate and people who don't want to do their own landscaping with plenty of money. The only thing that would put me off, is all the critters you'd come across while cleaning up a yard.
Wow he is very good at what he does.People with decades of experience can’t do or run a tight ship like this. This is a future billionaire! I wish I was this innovative or have the capacity to do it and courage too.!!
Transparency goes a long way. Would be nice for the kids getting into the business to know this isn't how it happens from mowing your neighbors to 5 million in 3 years. Im on my 4th year and dont take every job just to gross more. it's all about profit. I'll be at 100k this year and also working a full-time job. so that i can pay to live. All the money from the landscaping goes back into the business. My part-time employee enjoys going to the gas station, and so dont I. Know way in hell can this actually be done in 3 years unless you have never-ending capital. This kid knows his stuff must have a really good teacher. Or has consultants on speed dial.
You’d be surprised how many people stop at gas stations for multiple trips that equal more than 30 min to an hour. Also..giving them a card to use at the pump is also scary. They get gas and just happen to use a gas can to fill their tank and so forth. It’s hard to keep up with without a system. Also..cameras in the truck help him and possibly help the employee. Driving while on their phone and getting in an accident can make the business go away with the right (wrong) thing happening.
If you think about it, his system makes a lot of sense. A lot of big companies who provide their own fuel also have a tracking system which is actually pretty neat to see how they work. As an owner you would want to have your things more organized and running as best as you can. Saves time and money
Honestly unless you own a business you dont understand the struggle. The second you let things slide next thing you know they are spending 2-3 hours stopping at gas stations. tracking fuel is a must. not only for bottom line for tax reasons too. Now i would not tell employees if they forgot their lunch to starve. but if it turned into a daily thing then you need to address it.
Yeah this kid is simply the face of the business. Commercial is a whole different animal to residential and there's no way he figured it all out with out gobs of experience and gobs of money. Lucky is a great name for this business, cause he's lucky to be in the spot he is.
He definitely paid attention to his parents and he obviously is doing it good. A little tight, but he can run his business his way. If you have a crew at a gas station for an hour and a half, you need a new crew. Hes still impressive for a 21 year old
I'll like to know ....what time you start paying your employees? When they arrive to the office or when they start at the HOA? Donyou pay them until they get to the office ot when they leave the HOA? How much do they get paid? Do you send them to get any licenses? Thank you
Great video. With no stops allowed at the gas stations, does he have a bathroom policy? Are there restroom facilities on site that the crews are allowed to use?
All the people who think this guy is'nt true boss are wrong. His dad doesn't have time to run this business. I think the only thing his dad did was point him in the right direction and give him contacts. This guy has been doing this since he was eight years old. He knows the practical side. He's been around his dad to learn how a business works, how money works. This is his passion he didn't go have fun at college he kept with his business, he's continually researching, looking at what other people in the business are doing. He is using tools to run more efficently. The two production managers are his key personal ...they stop him having to kill himself working, that's why he has two. There is something else but i'm not going to point it out, but if you know you know. Does this guy have his own channel? If not perhaps he should hire a video manager the channel would pay for his wage and equipment in no time.
20:35 I sure am glad to live in europe. The companies cant put a gps, cameras or anything on you or your trucks. Even if you call in sick the boss is not allowed to annoy you with phone calls ..

I grew up near there. If he has 19 commercial accounts there, it is very reasonable. However, with both parents in business, mom in real estate, dad in business funding it's obvious that that was a great guide system. Properly trained, well paid, attention to detail teams, and a good managed system, it's very easy to understand.
Congratulations on his successful operation. 👏🏼💪🏼
no bulk mulch in FL??? huh? I was part owner of a mulch company here in FL.. We sold thousands of yards of mulch every year. We sold it by 100 yard walking floor loads, and loaded blower trucks daily....
Exactly I just think he’s clueless
@@Tiger__Hoodz Yeah so clueless he's making 5 million a year...
@fendrel389 his dad n mom are multi millionaires and over properties
@@xsims45 Good for them. Hard work does pay off!
South Florida mulch isnt super popular
I’m am sooooooooo proud of you young man , your are the American dream , I’m sooo inspired by you .
Really impressive. Love watching how other businesses all over the world implement systems to grow their businesses 👏🏻
The truck set up is nice and super efficient..he doesnt have 4000 gas cans to keep track of everywhere and a trash storage bin right on the truck..this kid is going to be a millionaire in no time..congrats🎉🎉🎉😊😊!!
kids born into it and not to mention its flordia anyone can move their today and start a lawn care bussiness and get clients.. stick to it and boom eveyone always needs some service and its a compettive market.
(3:05) "How did you go from that, to this" You should ask his daddy that🤣
Yea putting all the money to buy trucks, equipments, trailer, paying people beacuse at first you don’t see that you getting the money more like investing
You don't need a big fancy shop to make millions. You need a dad who manages all the properties and gives the contracts to you.
Where I grew up in Long Island NY I started a lawn buisness after High School. I purchased basic equipment to get started along with a truck. It made money but didn't go too far. Especially in winters. It was tough. My friend the same age started his lawn buisness the same time. He got fully outfitted with new trucks, enclosed trailers and equipment from his parents funding. Then he got accounts from their politician friends and family connections in the community. His parents purchased companies going out of buisness to obtain their accounts. He became a millionaire while I sold my buisness in frustration. It's not what you know, it's who you know that can get you to success plus being born into money helps. So at age 21 and having those connections is how he got successful like my friend did. You can bearly get a credit card at 21 for $1000 never mind those fleet of trucks, equipment and a 5 acre nursery.
All those rules and especially those signs like the washing one seem like a TON of micromanaging which leads to resentment and people ultimately leaving.
That’s exactly what I was thinking, trying to squeeze as much as he can if he’s the type of “If you won’t do it I’ll find someone that can” boss he’s going to be in trouble keeping good help.
I’ve worked for all the big companies here in central Florida . I used to work for one won’t mention name, but short story so I won’t bore you guys is they would give you certain time at each property per day literally. If you had equipment go down employee slacking you still had to finish it at that time or face being fired. They also would not allow stops at any store for nothing. They wanted to squeeze every once of strength out of your body before you went home. Lasted four months and left I just can’t work under conditions that are setup for you to fail everyday you go to work. Employees turnover was high do to many rules. You will be in business, but once you hit the top that’s it only way to go is down seen many companies cap out, and closed down shops to downsize. Another big point they contracted people from Mexico or else they wouldn’t have enough workers to do any job right. Peace out keep grinding.
@@cristobaldelacruz142 I’ve also been a part of a company like this and it’s horrible, gps on trucks. Not a minute over your break, having the manager on your ass demanding work to be done while he sits in his truck all day. Sad part is this company is still doing this I left in 2016 and people keep saying it’s run the same way. They also prey on desperste people
If you have laborers just do what ever they want they will bankrupt a company
Sad thing about being a business owner. People leave whether you micromanage them or not. At least things get done how he wants and needs them to.
I’m the same age and I help my mum. I’d love to do what he’s doing once she’s back on her feet. Good for you Austin good luck and hope you grow even bigger!!
I used to be a general contractor and always dreamt of scaling up my business and not having to do the physical work, but I just couldn’t figure it out and this young man makes me feel stupid. He is amazing them mindset, and his psychology and his execution is flawless. It seems wow just to know he’s only 21 years old.
he has the advantage of daddy's money
Perhaps he did have "daddy's money," but at least he's making moves rather than being a typical trust fund baby. His work ethic is very impressive, regardless of his age.
Well his dad manages communities hoas I don’t think he’d make a million as a junior if he didn’t have his dad practically give him the account
@@BillyBob-im7ogopportunities to get better… it still requires planning and execution…
LOL same.
Love that kid he's going to go big places very proud of that kid God bless him
He is a smart young man. He no's how to run a lawn care business. Also keeping on top of his workers to make sure there doing what needs to be done. Started small but climbing now.
You can tell he’s smart, dad’s money or not, he knows the vocabulary and the numbers and is calculated. Boomers and gen Xers need to know that just cause your dad loves you and supports you, it doesn’t mean you don’t know your stuff. If he stays hungry, persistence, and diligent, he will be wealthy young man, that any dad should be proud of.
not rocket science
@@bredin9199 might not be rocket science but 95% of people are not business owners let alone have businesses that generate 5mil in sales.
Plz reconsider using Roundup. My Uncle used Roundup in the Conservancy and landed up
Dying from non Hodgkin Pneumonia! My Aunt is left w/o a husband all in a effort in controlling tree growth along our River ( The Rio Grande) plz reconsider its use. Someone says in Europe it is mixed w/ different chemical formula to prevent deaths! Be educated w / this snd how it affects your crews! Like your operation!
Install 12v fridges on you're trucks, save time when you guys always getting ice, pkus they can keep a lunch and drinks cold for multiple days, i have them on my trucks, guys love them
I really believe that when we are born into this world we have it or don't have it ,the majority of us just go to work until we get old and retired and there's the other ones who know what they want at a very young age and do it, i really believe we all have a dream to make something big in life but we don't go beyond that dream maybe fear or not enough self confidence but here is a young man who did it , God bless him.
I don’t have words for how amazing this guy is!
Dude. Its like being a businessman is in your blood. You must have come from a business family - or very poor family and worked your way very hard to get up to where you are. God Bless You
Glad you were able to make it down to Austyn’s operation! He’s got a great outfit going on.
Heck yeah representin florida and i love the young guys and gals succeding. I couldnt imagine making that kinda of money so young. But thats what sets people different. This is the now and furture of our industry.
Great work young man. Very impressive. However, you gotta get those fuel tanks off the soil and onto a concrete spill pad or in a steel pan.
Amazing amount of cash flow with out taxes , landscaping is, and with cheap labor coming over the border its a super easy start up.
Insane the knowledge Austin has and proactive where the cash is going.
thats insane. Austyn is killing it. Mad respect.
Very efficient operation, guy is squared away… he’s a business owner not a landscaper and it will pay dividends someday. He would be successful in any business he starts.
Nice to see Florida companies on UA-cam to show how Florida landscape is a total different game
Incredible he's only 21! Good parenting is responsible for this young entrepreneur!
This is an amazing story & he's doing many things right. I'm very impressed with him at his age. I use to teach Intro to Business in high school & always encouraged entrepreneurship above all. Having a story like this would have been great but he would have still been in grade school at that time. lol
I did see a couple things I'd like to highly suggest to look into & hope you will pass the suggestions/concerns along. #1 would be "Safety First." He mentioned in the beginning... "Round up," which greatly concerns me since it's so toxic to the environment & cancerous to humans & pets. I would hope he'd find a good alternative, preferably a natural product (vinegar, dawn soap, water, salt, etc.). Also #2 when you got to the high pitch ringing segment I didn't notice hearing protection on the young man. He may have had some under the wrap, but if not, that should be a must. Both of those alone could cost him greatly years later if these guys try to sue him for hearing loss or medical issues due to the chemicals & THAT could cost him everything he worked so hard to build up. Plus the cost to his workers as well. Other than that, this young man is on the right path to great long term success.
I dont care who his dad is.. This alone is a blessing. His parents set him up for success. He ran with it! This is what family is for. Alot of us come from families that dont get it. This is how it should be. I wish i came from the type of family he has.
A smooth-running business, indeed!
Re: Bottles water for your employees:
☢️Please do not store the bottled water for employees near the toxic "Roundup®/glyphosate" & other fertilizers, fungicides, etc., because it could cause health problems for employees. Those toxic chemicals can permeate through the plastic water bottles, even if it's sitting across the opposite wall of the water bottles, in the storage house.
Landscape Expos are pretty good source for different things such as his key box,weedwacker barcodes and many more . Pretty well rounded young man
Nice video. If I ever own an HOA, this guy will be my first call for landscaping!!!
That’s a WHOLE lot of privilege, that much is undeniable. He most certainly wouldn’t be where he’s at if it wasn’t for his source of upfront funding and contracts. It’s the way he uses this privilege that makes him very respectable. I grew up in a wealthy area and I know tons of people my age/young adults that just sit around living off their trust funds. None of that here. This guy saw an opportunity and took it. He gets out and puts in the work, and imo he is deserving of the success. So while he has had a ton of privilege here, this dude is very respectable. It’s a little wack he doesn’t let his people stop for food though. If you want good employees that stay around for a long time you do need to treat them well, while balancing COGS of course. That’s a fine line to walk and it’s constantly moving.
Employees have to leave their keys, they can't go to buy lunch if they forgot it and there's a limit to refueling in case they'd fuel their own vehicles? So much distrust in this regime and I bet it's a horrible work environment with lots of workers coming and going.
Something doesn't add up. The company has 7 reviews on Google at an average of 4.1. Can someone explain this please?
Impressive to run a company of that size but cmon man there’s no way he built it up from the ground . There’s absolutely no way his body could handle those summers .
Yup he's running his dad's company.
He probably stays busy from just his dad's real-estate. Then his connections.
What the young man learned os not even taight to kids in school and should be he is doing an excellent job and love the key organization he has everything dialed in correctly. That os a company you want to work for. Cant wait to see the second video.
New subscriber here. I hope to see part 2. Its been three months. This is just epic. 21 and owns a business and makes about 5 million a year.
Part 2 is up
I love seeing this. He is building something. Yes. He had help; though he is still working. Florida grows grass all year long.
This kid is already living the dream. Me, I'm still trying to wakeup from my nightmare.
I don't know how close your bids for jobs are to your competitors but if you gave your crews some leniency and estimated 15 bags/hr for one guy instead of 20, you might not work them to death come busy season. Your turnover might improve
Them Trucks are a business expense on the balance sheet!!
Great write offs!!❤😊
He works hard. That’s why he’s lucky 🍀 ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
Good luck with that. 😅
Not a spec of dirt on him...
I been following Austyn for over 5 years his story is nothing but incredible
Man that is awesome I been in this field for 24 years and I’m impressed and i wanna move down to Florida so bad lol Michigan sucks for our type of work lol
Warmer climate and people who don't want to do their own landscaping with plenty of money. The only thing that would put me off, is all the critters you'd come across while cleaning up a yard.
Well done that young man, he's got a head for business.
Wow he is very good at what he does.People with decades of experience can’t do or run a tight ship like this.
This is a future billionaire! I wish I was this innovative or have the capacity to do it and courage too.!!
According to people who know he's had alot of help and his family is wealthy. Congrats to him though for working hard and running with his luck.
At 5:44 that is a very cool awesome way to keep track of your keys and also from theft to.
Transparency goes a long way. Would be nice for the kids getting into the business to know this isn't how it happens from mowing your neighbors to 5 million in 3 years. Im on my 4th year and dont take every job just to gross more. it's all about profit. I'll be at 100k this year and also working a full-time job. so that i can pay to live. All the money from the landscaping goes back into the business. My part-time employee enjoys going to the gas station, and so dont I. Know way in hell can this actually be done in 3 years unless you have never-ending capital. This kid knows his stuff must have a really good teacher. Or has consultants on speed dial.
No stopping at gas stations, cameras in trucks, tracking fuel...sounds like a fun kid to work for, I'd bet most of his employees are not citizens.
If most are not citizens, it’s because of Joe Biden open border policy
prob cause they're the only ones who're actually are willing
You’d be surprised how many people stop at gas stations for multiple trips that equal more than 30 min to an hour. Also..giving them a card to use at the pump is also scary. They get gas and just happen to use a gas can to fill their tank and so forth. It’s hard to keep up with without a system. Also..cameras in the truck help him and possibly help the employee. Driving while on their phone and getting in an accident can make the business go away with the right (wrong) thing happening.
If you think about it, his system makes a lot of sense. A lot of big companies who provide their own fuel also have a tracking system which is actually pretty neat to see how they work. As an owner you would want to have your things more organized and running as best as you can. Saves time and money
Honestly unless you own a business you dont understand the struggle. The second you let things slide next thing you know they are spending 2-3 hours stopping at gas stations. tracking fuel is a must. not only for bottom line for tax reasons too. Now i would not tell employees if they forgot their lunch to starve. but if it turned into a daily thing then you need to address it.
Very impressive-He seems to have control over his niche - HOA - is where the Money 💰 is !
He’s got that rich kid came from money kinda vibe.
I’ve been doing this for 30 yrs and this kid is not getting these HOA contracts without having someone with influence getting him inside
Yeah this kid is simply the face of the business. Commercial is a whole different animal to residential and there's no way he figured it all out with out gobs of experience and gobs of money. Lucky is a great name for this business, cause he's lucky to be in the spot he is.
Wow! What an insanely impressive operation.
Been using fuel cloud for ages now with the company that I work for works awesome
This young guy is a stud bros.. just for your age, very impressive company. Very smart too, very smart.
He definitely paid attention to his parents and he obviously is doing it good. A little tight, but he can run his business his way. If you have a crew at a gas station for an hour and a half, you need a new crew. Hes still impressive for a 21 year old
only bad thing about one person to bill for 450 homes. if u lose the account for a lower bid your stuck trying to fill that spot
Kid got fed these properties. It's easy when daddy is funding the project.
Awesom stuff, kid started from the bottom only took a million dollar loan from his dad to start the company...
One of your best videos. Super interesting to see such an amazing operation! Cant wait for part 2!
why employees can’t stop at gas stations if obviously they got to go and use it, number one and number two, or they do it inside the trucks,
I took one glimpse at this kid and just knew it all came from his dad. must be nice.
Not all
I'll like to know ....what time you start paying your employees? When they arrive to the office or when they start at the HOA? Donyou pay them until they get to the office ot when they leave the HOA? How much do they get paid? Do you send them to get any licenses?
Thank you
Great video. With no stops allowed at the gas stations, does he have a bathroom policy? Are there restroom facilities on site that the crews are allowed to use?
They probably just pee in the bushes or knock on a door. J/k 😂
Most HOA's in Florida have bathrooms inside for employees.
@@mikedirks5889lmao as long as no one see you who cares😂
All the people who think this guy is'nt true boss are wrong. His dad doesn't have time to run this business. I think the only thing his dad did was point him in the right direction and give him contacts. This guy has been doing this since he was eight years old. He knows the practical side. He's been around his dad to learn how a business works, how money works. This is his passion he didn't go have fun at college he kept with his business, he's continually researching, looking at what other people in the business are doing. He is using tools to run more efficently. The two production managers are his key personal ...they stop him having to kill himself working, that's why he has two. There is something else but i'm not going to point it out, but if you know you know. Does this guy have his own channel? If not perhaps he should hire a video manager the channel would pay for his wage and equipment in no time.
Amazing!! Congratulations to that young man!!
Dude that’s crazy amazing he’s gonna be able to start his company in another state soon
20:35 I sure am glad to live in europe. The companies cant put a gps, cameras or anything on you or your trucks. Even if you call in sick the boss is not allowed to annoy you with phone calls ..

@@mahirzuko the government extorts money from everyone and gives it to Big Pharma, which sees no benefit to the public staying healthy...only in people being maintained.
Most countries with public health benefits usually get poor service and have long wait times and/or denial of specific services. In the US, I think our health care is a multi level criminal organisation. That sometimes brings a miracle. The cost of Healthcare would be affordable if the rates were based on what a person could and would REASONABLY pay. Third party, Socialist payers system allows the thieves to charge all they want.

Very impressive to see for this young man!
Truly incredible
