Hey all, this looks like a friendly and helpful place to hang out, I hope I am correct. Let me introduce myself. I am 21 years old, and am a Business student at the University of Cincinnati. I mowed my first lawn when I was 13, and it was my main income for a large part of my younger teen years. At one time, I was working at a little pasta shop, and was doing 5 lawns on my street. I was only 16, but getting 100 bucks a week from lawns and a nice little paycheck from the shop. I greatly enjoy doing yard work, it is satisfying to me, and it also is a real nice way to make money!
Skip forward to the present, I just quit from my job at Sam's Club, it was a nice little college job, but damn boring and demanded every weekend of my time. I realize I might have to work over the winter to get some cash, but my idea I've had is to try and secure a few clients to do lawns next season. I don't want to start a business with this, just take my good old Ranger and my lawn equiptment and get a few people to commit. I have already printed up a rough draft half paper, planning to just stick it in mailboxes and hope my low prices lure people in over big companies. I am not sure if thats the best route, or if there is some other way. Either way, I am thinking that the sooner the better is right on as far as getting some clients. Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
Thanks for reading and HI!
