Ex-mark builds great mowers !!

Shindaiwa builds great Trimmers !!

Red-Max builds great Blowers !!

Ex-mark began in 1982, they did so well that in 1997 they became a division of Toro !! That dosen't say much for Toro but it say's a whole bunch for Ex-mark !!

Don't be confused; Ex-mark is Ex-mark..

Green is good !!

Starting out many will say use door hangers for residential which true, these work but for me what I would do is sit down for a day or two are carefully plot out an advertising strategy that outlines the many ways to advertise ... flyers, direct mail, using the phone, direct canvassing, small town newspaper, Yellow Pages and the rest of it. You'll need a continual flow of incoming leads to "feed" your business sales volume to continue to grow ... think the whole thing out in advance to keep the phone ringing from now on. Don't put all eggs in one basket.

Lots of good equipment out there. Go with a dealer that will give you good service.
The eXmark is a good mower. Wish I had a eXmark dealer near me.
Be sure and check out the Stihl line of trimmers and blowers. <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>

Quality Is Good

This late in the season you may pick up a slightly used mower or demo at a great deal. I picked up a water cooled Exmark with less than 100 hours for a great price.

I use Ex-mark mowers and they are very dependable my maintenace is very low. I use the ex-mark FB 460V full pressure lubrication 38" deck. I tried scags and many other mowers none really impressed me more than the Ex-Mark. And if your are starting out you want to pick good equipment that will not break down everytime you turn around. I firmly recomend Ex-mark mowers and shindaiwa timmers and edgers.

Good luck on your business
Wishyou all the luck..

Exmark makes quality reliable mowers, has incredible customer service and a cool logo. Love my eXmarks!

Since when does the logo have anything to do with purchasing lawn equipment???
