I work with my dad in his landscaping business. I used to hate it when I was younger cause I thought it was tough work, but after growing up I started to see the positives in it, like the freedom of being your own boss, being able to control your work environment, not having to deal with terrible co workers(im a introvert also), being outside enjoying nature. It’s still tough work but happiness & peace is something you cant put a price on.
Also think hard work is the best solution for life’s problems. Really hard to feel depressed or useless after a hard days work. Just thickening your skin and accomplishing something with your hands. A beautiful thing
I had a model older than this one that I love. My sister has difficulty with tools that are too heavy and she actually loved mine and found it easy to use th-cam.com/users/postUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG . This is a newer model but was even lighter which she really appreciates. She enjoys it and I no longer have to go to her house to trim as she can handle it fine. Haven't used it enough to comment on the battery life but lithium batteries last longer than the old style. Being cordless makes it easy to trim the far edges of the property. The entire yard can be trimmed with one charged battery.
Yessss snooooooww. I think we can all agreed snow is the best time of year. Wait till you get your license and can plow. Nothing like being the only one in the road. You really think about stuff you’ve never thought about before. Have fun! Stay safe brother!

@@216_matt the best way to learn would be to send it & figure it out bud. his method may not work for you & his towns rate could be different to yours - take the risk and create a price based on your worth/work ethic. if it snows where you are, make a rate for what work you’d want someone to do at your own home.

My sentiments exactly lol. I was like really? You really can find anything on TH-cam! Lol as long as someone’s creative enough to do it. Or, someone who genuinely wanted to show people how to start a mowing business. ☺️ Perhaps both!
My problem is when guys that do 15 houses a day, that offer lawns cuts for $30 but they don’t trim hedges ( even when offer to pay extra), don’t pick up clippings of grass, and don’t clean out or weed Wack around bushes or flower beds or wire fences, Then when I offer my full service lawn maintenance, they want to pay the same price that these guys do cutting corners. SMH
I’m only 15 been mowing for the past 2 years solo with 46 regular clients and I built my own trailer for my push bike that fits mower and all my gear in it, and has a motor that powers the trailer wheels to get me up hills, i highly encourage other young kids with the right mindset to get into mowing, it’s 10x better than McDonald’s pay.

Yes this is a really good business for young people. It’s not for everyone though it does get hard at times. Kids nowadays are lazy and have everything they want from their parents. I bought 30 lawns from a friend in 2015. And now I have a new wright stander a bobcat and a dixie chopper and 2 trucks.
Seeing al these people succeeding in their hustles makes me happy 💪🤟💯 I’m planning to start a lawn mowing business since I’m just out of high school. I want to be able to buy a car before college starts.
Right on brother!! I run a small personal landscape maintenance business and your comment on the 'side hustle guy' was spot on. I stand by my prices because of the quality and service my clients receive. Keep up the awesome content!!!!
My parents have had the same person doing their yard for 30 years. The man have paid off his house here, and bought a house in his hometown in Mexico. And sent his 3 kids to college here. Anyone complaining there is no way to make money is just not looking hard enough
Start my lawn care business in 2018 I was 17 at the time I built a bicycle trailer I put the lawn mower weed wacker and leaf blower I would ride around town doing lawn im 23 now I'm on my second pick up truck business is booming . I came a long way with my business .
Yup I made $85 in one hour back when I was like 15 just using my dad's Honda 21" and echo trimmer. This was about 2010. If I could scale that, it would have been awesome
I feel like everywhere would be like that lol! Just because of the simplicity I guess? Kinda like " all your doing is pushing a mower" or something. Not like your using your brains or something unique I suppose, not sure
@@kctyphoon so silly that someone's attitude on TH-cam can impact their well being. How ridiculous.. Hey, I got an idea, stop watching dudes TH-cam, and worry about yourself and no one else but yourself.
16:56 starts the most importend part. This dude is a straight up professional. I saw him for the first time right now and im so impressed. Such a cool and relaxed person. Imagine, he is my boss. I would kill for him. This dude right here is in 10 years a multi millionaire. Much respect and good luck from Germany.
I'm white and I've had a few people look down on me for stupid reasons like that. Ignore them and keep hustling. There's people that look down on you only because your job gets you a bit dirty and sweaty..I know it's messed up but just ignore them and keep hustling
@@slcanavan1 tbh I didn't even understand what his comment meant. English is not my first language maybe that's why..If it was racist towards me then whatever. I know what I've done (and doing) to grow my business and race has nothing to do with it
I don’t care how much you make, I’m happy your getting off you ass and working. I was just like you when I was young and today I’m a multi millionaire. The secret is take that money and invest it and one day your rich! You should be proud of yourself. Rich people plan for decades, poor people plan for Saturday night.
Not only just for the quality but also taking in account the heat. Pretty good gig since the people who don't want to work in the heat pay those prices.
Not necessarily. My gardener charges me $85 a month, comes every Friday and my lawn looks 100 times better then every lawn in this video. He does every house on my block and has every lawn looking 🔥. We're also in California.
Yeah I see he does a lot of work with one hand 😂😂 if I was the house owner and saw him doing this I’d think about hiring somebody else for those prices
Who tf has a better job in hs anyway? Where I live, the ones that got made fun of were the fast food workers. Manual laborers had respect and we knew they had cash, they never had to flex it...
You are correct about eating healthy and being able to stay under the sun longer, I ride my bike to do work and the better I ate the more I was able to tolerate the sun and heat. Thanks for this summary of lawn mowing business, very helpful man!
Man I’m amazed! Not sure why TH-cam suggested this video, and I don’t know why I clicked it, but I’m glad I did, really good to see somebody working hard and hustling. Good knowledgeable video my friend. Keep it up :)
Students: I cannot pay for my education! This guy: works and has time for other stuff. Students: Pay off my debts! It's everyone's fault! This guy: makes money just doing a job.
Bro i want to start mowing business, i neve had mown grass coz i am immigrant we cut it by hand in my country. i have done ones with grass trimmer but looked ugly. How to make it nice looking how can i learn. Thank you
This is awesome to see man, had a friend do the same thing after graduating with a finance degree fed up with the job market. Made like $70k his first summer. Just put out more signs than anyone and did the overgrown lawns no one wanted to
@@YouFearMe when you go from high school to college you don’t experience the real job market, if anything you have random part time jobs. So yeah, it takes a degree to understand how little they teach you. & his contracts are for 452k so far this year, so he definitely made the right decision. He’ll net ~280 as a 24yr old
I've started cutting lawns since I was 15 when I was dealing with family problems. Was hard to do it but it took motivation & dedication to get things done. Years past & my family is getting there things straightened up & i'm 18 working landscaping. I cut lawns big & small, throw mulch, trim lots & big bushes & hedges. It's not a perfect job but it's working so far. Didn't want to be that lazy kid anymore asking my parents for things I want. I push myself & find a way to do it myself. If theres a job out there, take it no matter what if you need it. This guy gave me some good tips in this vid. I start drinking electrolytes instead of cans & cans of Pepsi 😐🙏
I do landscape as well and trust me he ain’t wrong, working out in the sun is boiling. But I got used to it like he mentioned. Keep up the good work brother💯🙏🏽
Bro i want to start mowing business, i neve had mown grass coz i am immigrant we cut it by hand in my country. i have done ones with grass trimmer but looked ugly. How to make it nice looking how can i learn. Thank you
I do the same thing you do I mow yards for a living I have 62 yards. and I really like your work ethic and you positivity towards what you do. My yards are small like yours I've been mow yards now for 5 years. The way you think and the way you do your yard are basically like the way I do my yards I also have a Black and Decker trimmer and just like you the do the work just fine because I also don't do that much trimming but if I do thy get the job done.i also use a push mower I use a Toro 22' rear wheel drive recycler I love using it. I really like Toro brand mowers and I also like using Stihl weedeaters and there blowers. So just like I said you and me basicly work alot alike.well Zach if I have any questions on something dealing with lawn care I will ask you for your opinion and any ideas that my have that might help me out. We'll keep up the really good work that you do each day. Also if you wanted to ask me any questions please feel free to I don't mind a bit. We'll take care and stay safe out there.
Thank you so much robbie!! It’s good to hear We are not alone with the way we think 👁😁 We are friends now let me know if you have any questions and I will do the same for you!
I thought I was the only one with these thought patterns. Peace God I recently opened my own Landscaping business so I watch videos for new inspiration. I vibe with your energy so I'm going to definitely continue to watch yours 🖖🏾
such a genuine person. I don’t care what level you’re at in life. You can learn something from this video about the importance of knowing yourself and knowing how to treat others. More love brother keep rising !
I normally don’t leave comments but dude thank you. So motivating. I want to open a junk removal business I have the truck for it but something is stopping me and I don’t know what just keep pushing I guess.
It’s the nervousness and the “how do i go about it” mindset. Maybe or maybe not idk. But that’s how I feel when things hold me back. Just go for it homie. Sounds cliche but really G just go for it.
I would say from experience and still kinda in the same position (not after this video tho),Try to pinpoint what is bothering you and everyday move closer to the business, the closer I’ve been getting to actually executing the more I’m able to know why I feel stuck, my main problem was other ppls opinions bc my whole life I’ve been told who i am and what i have to do by my very large family but we all have to learn on our own that who you are is who you show yourself to be by the actions and thoughts you take and think daily many things can hold u back but there is a difference between people who know where they want to go and don’t, the ones who don’t go to college in debt, the ones who do think and contemplate and make there own decisions
You gotta start somewhere. Everyone walks a thousand miles step by step. Never work for free. When you see the cash coming to your pocket and the value you provide, it becomes fuel to keep going.
Yo man I'm asian and just about to start my mowing business. Right now I'm just warming up my mind and body, trying not to shock em when I actually into the real game. Thanks for the tips, bro.
More power to ya! When the economy crashed in '07 I lost my job. Tried to make some cash passing out flyers in my neighborhood offering to cut grass. All I had was my 22" push mower, a string trimmer, and a leaf blower. Pretty soon word spread and I got more customers. Had to buy a bigger mower, then a trailer. I showed up on time, did my best, and was respectable looking, speaking, and acting. My "business" grew faster than I could keep up. I wish all success in the world to you!
Love the hustle, when we live in a world contrived by going to college getting in debt and then working the 9 to 5 to make money for someone else. You're doing big things, and this video will give a different perspective for many lost millennials out there (including myself). Good shit brotha!
An amazing and well informed presentation. Thankyou for the contribution to making the world a better place and keeping our gardens clean. Top notch value. Your a nice guy who deserves his dues. Well done to you ✌🏽❤️🇬🇧
At least you Americans are blessed with yards like this. Here in UK we have no places like this wherw we can work like this lmao. Amazing video though🙌
so focus on driveways and get into power washing shrub killing/weed kiilling, mulching for the little bit of lawns they do have and just progress further from there while you are working think of other things that are on the job that you know you can do or learn to do and add it to something you provide with your business
Hell yeah I mow my own twice a week I always get compliments so I’m easily charging 40-50 per yard because that’s what I’m worth!!! Don’t chase them replace them!! love it!
Bro i want to start mowing business, i neve had mown grass coz i am immigrant we cut it by hand in my country. i have done ones with grass trimmer but looked ugly. How to make it nice looking how can i learn. Thank you
You're an inspiration to us all, even if the others don't know it. Not only did I just start an all season lawn care business, but I'm a door to door guy so, I know all about the heat and fell in love with dri fit recently as well.

@@fitnessforlife8966 one thing you can learn is to train your fore arms, yes. training certain muscles makes the job so much easier to do like fore arm strength which will allow you to evenly cut grass with weed eaters by leveling it to the lawnmower's set level which in itself is a skill to learn on how to do properly along with learning how to edge the side of the grass between the sidewalk and sometimes in the little water irrigations
Good video……I don’t who, but someone actually needs to hear this, you've got to stop saving all your money. Venture into investing some, if you really want financial stability.
@@stephen1639 Good talk I tell that to my friends everyday. Saving is good investing is much better, I used to think saving would save me but NO, saving is just keeping to spend later.
@@Makemoneymowing Hey i just subscribed and love what you do and the book u read as well as ur outlook on things(mindset) i am considering starting lawnmowering but dont know If I could sustain It or really enjoy It, how many days do you work a week? thanks
Your title reminds me of a Ronnie Coleman quote: "Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder, but ain't nobody wanna lift no heavy ass weights!" Much love from a fellow Texan! Be safe, brudda, and God bless. Kick grass and rule ass!
I’m 23 and have been mowing now for 11 years. I WILL DO THIS UNTIL I CANT. Last few years I’ve started taking it more seriously, bringing in 16-20k and getting friends on board too. If I’m eating, we’re all eating. Go out and help yourself.
I own a small landscaping company and I appreciate your video. There really is a lot of money to be made, and unlike other businesses where you do the job and it doesn’t need to be done again for years, grass and landscapes always need service. I worked for the government for 10 years and hated it...now that I’m 3 years into the landscaping business, I’m making more $ and able to spend more time with my family. Attitude goes a long way in any profession but especially when you’re in the heat. Your video and advice has a good balance of being fair but knowing your worth and making what you should.
Bro I'm 30 just started my lawn business this year your just 26 and you give me motivation I just quoted a job for $80 they said no they only had 50 so I left because like you said know your worth and I do a superb job and I work alone so thanks bro💯
Turning 30 and have been watching a lot of videos to get started. Little nervous, especially since I’ll only be able to do it twice a week. But you two give me hope 🤘🏼
I'm 33 and I started my own landscaping company around age 26 just like him. You can do it, too. There is enough grass for us all to cut. Have integrity, be honest, do a good job even when nobody but you knows the difference, and you'll be good to go.
I've been in this business for over 20 years,here in Miami,Fl, where it's always 90°+ @ 90%+ humidity...biggest recommendation I have is wear LONG SLEEVES.... people think you'll feel hotter,but trust me... It's the total opposite affect
Awesome video man. Love your energy you seem like a great person. I started off mowing lawns when I was young. Now I own my own landscape installation business and we specialize in installing pollinator gardens, habitat gardens and wildflower meadows. I just want to encourage others to pursue other aspects of landscaping as it can make you extremely valuable. People are becoming more and more interested in native plants and ecological gardens so if you learn more about those topics it can add a lot to your business!
Love this. I worked with a landscaping business for 2 years and the money is real. We don't need anyone to tell us how much our labor is worth. Do like my guy here and decide for yourself.
I am 31 and work for myself doing home improvement for last 2 years and I found a lot of value from this video. You reaffirmed a lot that I have been learning on my own being a single man business. Thanks brother. I subscribed with the condition you make more lifestyle videos . Peace ✌
I used to clean pools as a young man and remember coming across thousands of yard care pros, some would make up to 7-10k a month. One guy took care of 1 family's yards they were dairy farmers each paid 3k a month for total yard care.
To turn easier with a push mower in a fenced in yard make two passes along the fence then when making passes you can turn without the handle hitting the fence.
Facts everybody wants to be rich they don't put in the hard work I'm wealthy because I stack gold and silver gold and silver is real money you come from the Earth that's God's money real wealth also Bitcoin stock market real estate market bonds that's up to be get rich so fast is nothing wrong cutting grass and working hard I do the same thing I just cut my grass yesterday feels good
Make Money Mowing - Howdy! I live in north Dallas and am not able to charge what you charge and was wondering if you could let us in on what your competitors are charging and what kind of push back have you gotten. I am also doing small neighborhood lawns. Some larger ones, I am able to charge 50-60 i.e. on a corner lot with a larger back yard/front yard (Still not large). I up charge trimming hedges and roll that into the cost like $10 more every time I mow for hedges. Do you lose a lot of quotes due to high price and just take the ones you want? Thanks for the help!
I like that “We don’t chase them, we replace them” thank you bro for this knowledge that you have shared, I appreciate the behind the scenes input you mentioned about mowing lawns that are right next to each other, may you continue to prosper 💪🏽💯
Whoever is gonna see this. I recommend..Always do proper 100% work. No shortcuts Keep learning and doing research Never undercharge. Always charge based on your abilities and skills Have self respect and don't be a pushover Stick to your guns and your pricing Eat well/healthy and stay fit You're gonna make it!

@@Tyler-xp5db tbh I see it the same way. $60 dollars per mow sounds like a lot tbh. These suburb people loaded so it’s cool haha.
In southern NJ no one is paying $60 for that size lawn; $30-45 depending on frequency of cutting
20 dollars is what more people earn in my country every TWO days.

Me: “yup”

I'm white and I've had a few people look down on me for stupid reasons like that. Ignore them and keep hustling. There's people that look down on you only because your job gets you a bit dirty and sweaty..I know it's messed up but just ignore them and keep hustling

I don’t care how much you make, I’m happy your getting off you ass and working. I was just like you when I was young and today I’m a multi millionaire. The secret is take that money and invest it and one day your rich! You should be proud of yourself. Rich people plan for decades, poor people plan for Saturday night.
Cheap prices means cheap quality while he’s charging high prices for high quality
Yessir and I just want others to do the same 😎
eh thats not really true u got niggas who charge for the low and still hook u up
Not only just for the quality but also taking in account the heat. Pretty good gig since the people who don't want to work in the heat pay those prices.
Not necessarily. My gardener charges me $85 a month, comes every Friday and my lawn looks 100 times better then every lawn in this video. He does every house on my block and has every lawn looking 🔥. We're also in California.
Yeah I see he does a lot of work with one hand 😂😂 if I was the house owner and saw him doing this I’d think about hiring somebody else for those prices
I got made fun in high school that I mowed lawns, then they would shut up when I would show them my stack of cash. 💵💵💵😬
On god 😂😂
You bought that sick ass car with all that money?😳👍
frr until they parents make them do their own yard
same i got made fun of mowing lawns and picking up trash but i made bread and bought a gaming PC
Who tf has a better job in hs anyway? Where I live, the ones that got made fun of were the fast food workers. Manual laborers had respect and we knew they had cash, they never had to flex it...
You are correct about eating healthy and being able to stay under the sun longer, I ride my bike to do work and the better I ate the more I was able to tolerate the sun and heat. Thanks for this summary of lawn mowing business, very helpful man!

The smartest thing I have heard on youtube today. "Don't chase them, replace them" respect your hustle
Respect to this kid. I remember doing this as a kid with my dad doing houses. Also doing irrigation, installing new lawns. Much respect
Bro i want to start mowing business, i neve had mown grass coz i am immigrant we cut it by hand in my country. i have done ones with grass trimmer but looked ugly. How to make it nice looking how can i learn. Thank you
This is not a kid this is a responsible young man God bless him and you
This is awesome to see man, had a friend do the same thing after graduating with a finance degree fed up with the job market. Made like $70k his first summer. Just put out more signs than anyone and did the overgrown lawns no one wanted to
Wow it took a degree to figure that out? Lol

I've started cutting lawns since I was 15 when I was dealing with family problems. Was hard to do it but it took motivation & dedication to get things done. Years past & my family is getting there things straightened up & i'm 18 working landscaping. I cut lawns big & small, throw mulch, trim lots & big bushes & hedges. It's not a perfect job but it's working so far. Didn't want to be that lazy kid anymore asking my parents for things I want. I push myself & find a way to do it myself. If theres a job out there, take it no matter what if you need it. This guy gave me some good tips in this vid. I start drinking electrolytes instead of cans & cans of Pepsi 😐🙏
“We don’t chase em we replace em” 💯
I do landscape as well and trust me he ain’t wrong, working out in the sun is boiling. But I got used to it like he mentioned. Keep up the good work brother💯🙏🏽
Bro i want to start mowing business, i neve had mown grass coz i am immigrant we cut it by hand in my country. i have done ones with grass trimmer but looked ugly. How to make it nice looking how can i learn. Thank you
I do the same thing you do I mow yards for a living I have 62 yards. and I really like your work ethic and you positivity towards what you do. My yards are small like yours I've been mow yards now for 5 years. The way you think and the way you do your yard are basically like the way I do my yards I also have a Black and Decker trimmer and just like you the do the work just fine because I also don't do that much trimming but if I do thy get the job done.i also use a push mower I use a Toro 22' rear wheel drive recycler I love using it. I really like Toro brand mowers and I also like using Stihl weedeaters and there blowers. So just like I said you and me basicly work alot alike.well Zach if I have any questions on something dealing with lawn care I will ask you for your opinion and any ideas that my have that might help me out. We'll keep up the really good work that you do each day. Also if you wanted to ask me any questions please feel free to I don't mind a bit. We'll take care and stay safe out there.
Thank you so much robbie!! It’s good to hear We are not alone with the way we think 👁😁 We are friends now let me know if you have any questions and I will do the same for you!
I thought I was the only one with these thought patterns. Peace God I recently opened my own Landscaping business so I watch videos for new inspiration. I vibe with your energy so I'm going to definitely continue to watch yours 🖖🏾
such a genuine person. I don’t care what level you’re at in life. You can learn something from this video about the importance of knowing yourself and knowing how to treat others. More love brother keep rising !
I normally don’t leave comments but dude thank you. So motivating. I want to open a junk removal business I have the truck for it but something is stopping me and I don’t know what just keep pushing I guess.
It’s the nervousness and the “how do i go about it” mindset. Maybe or maybe not idk. But that’s how I feel when things hold me back. Just go for it homie. Sounds cliche but really G just go for it.
I would say from experience and still kinda in the same position (not after this video tho),Try to pinpoint what is bothering you and everyday move closer to the business, the closer I’ve been getting to actually executing the more I’m able to know why I feel stuck, my main problem was other ppls opinions bc my whole life I’ve been told who i am and what i have to do by my very large family but we all have to learn on our own that who you are is who you show yourself to be by the actions and thoughts you take and think daily many things can hold u back but there is a difference between people who know where they want to go and don’t, the ones who don’t go to college in debt, the ones who do think and contemplate and make there own decisions
You gotta start somewhere. Everyone walks a thousand miles step by step. Never work for free. When you see the cash coming to your pocket and the value you provide, it becomes fuel to keep going.
Yo man I'm asian and just about to start my mowing business. Right now I'm just warming up my mind and body, trying not to shock em when I actually into the real game. Thanks for the tips, bro.
My dude, much respect! You’re going to be very successful.
I’ve been thinking about doing this for a while. Your my inspiration to do this
You do it?
Not only does the dry fit shirt protect from heat it also protects your skin from all the stuff bouncing up from trimmer and hitting your skin
More power to ya!
When the economy crashed in '07 I lost my job. Tried to make some cash passing out flyers in my neighborhood offering to cut grass. All I had was my 22" push mower, a string trimmer, and a leaf blower. Pretty soon word spread and I got more customers. Had to buy a bigger mower, then a trailer.
I showed up on time, did my best, and was respectable looking, speaking, and acting.
My "business" grew faster than I could keep up.
I wish all success in the world to you!
Love the hustle, when we live in a world contrived by going to college getting in debt and then working the 9 to 5 to make money for someone else. You're doing big things, and this video will give a different perspective for many lost millennials out there (including myself). Good shit brotha!
An amazing and well informed presentation. Thankyou for the contribution to making the world a better place and keeping our gardens clean. Top notch value. Your a nice guy who deserves his dues. Well done to you ✌🏽❤️🇬🇧
At least you Americans are blessed with yards like this. Here in UK we have no places like this wherw we can work like this lmao. Amazing video though🙌
so focus on driveways and get into power washing shrub killing/weed kiilling, mulching for the little bit of lawns they do have and just progress further from there while you are working think of other things that are on the job that you know you can do or learn to do and add it to something you provide with your business
Hell yeah I mow my own twice a week I always get compliments so I’m easily charging 40-50 per yard because that’s what I’m worth!!! Don’t chase them replace them!! love it!
Music to my ears!! Keep it up man glad to hear you're enjoying yourself 🙂

Not only did I just start an all season lawn care business, but I'm a door to door guy so, I know all about the heat and fell in love with dri fit recently as well.
Wow “if the sun hurts you then the sun is not the problem, maybe the way you take care you yourself is” dude just make me wow

why did you sell it?
@@fitnessforlife8966 one thing you can learn is to train your fore arms, yes. training certain muscles makes the job so much easier to do like fore arm strength which will allow you to evenly cut grass with weed eaters by leveling it to the lawnmower's set level which in itself is a skill to learn on how to do properly along with learning how to edge the side of the grass between the sidewalk and sometimes in the little water irrigations
@@fitnessforlife8966stop saying bro

lol that’s where I got the idea from 😂 yeah buddy!!! thanks my dude 🔥
You need to get a go pro mount so you can stop trimming one handed. 😂😂
Big facts lol, next on the wish list 😂
I’m 23 and have been mowing now for 11 years. I WILL DO THIS UNTIL I CANT. Last few years I’ve started taking it more seriously, bringing in 16-20k and getting friends on board too. If I’m eating, we’re all eating. Go out and help yourself.
Who’s paying you 50 a lawn. 🤔🤔
I own a small landscaping company and I appreciate your video. There really is a lot of money to be made, and unlike other businesses where you do the job and it doesn’t need to be done again for years, grass and landscapes always need service. I worked for the government for 10 years and hated it...now that I’m 3 years into the landscaping business, I’m making more $ and able to spend more time with my family. Attitude goes a long way in any profession but especially when you’re in the heat. Your video and advice has a good balance of being fair but knowing your worth and making what you should.
Bro I'm 30 just started my lawn business this year your just 26 and you give me motivation I just quoted a job for $80 they said no they only had 50 so I left because like you said know your worth and I do a superb job and I work alone so thanks bro💯
33 and started mine with my 7 year old son this year! 💪🏼 Keep pushing man!
Turning 30 and have been watching a lot of videos to get started. Little nervous, especially since I’ll only be able to do it twice a week. But you two give me hope 🤘🏼
I'm 33 and I started my own landscaping company around age 26 just like him. You can do it, too. There is enough grass for us all to cut. Have integrity, be honest, do a good job even when nobody but you knows the difference, and you'll be good to go.
Should have just done a $50 worthy job on the lawn instead of a $80
@@bossjulian7113 No I never do that because I give it my all or nothing I never lower my price
Love to see the hustle! If you wanna work smarter instead of harder, I got you. Love your drive. ❤️
M8 every second human being and their dog is currently doing this here in Aus, the competition is real.
I've been in this business for over 20 years,here in Miami,Fl, where it's always 90°+ @ 90%+ humidity...biggest recommendation I have is wear LONG SLEEVES.... people think you'll feel hotter,but trust me... It's the total opposite affect
That and prevents cancer from to much sun exposure
Damn, I love seeing younger people working hard and figuring things out! You are taking charge of your life and good things will come your way.

Awesome video man. Love your energy you seem like a great person.
I started off mowing lawns when I was young. Now I own my own landscape installation business and we specialize in installing pollinator gardens, habitat gardens and wildflower meadows. I just want to encourage others to pursue other aspects of landscaping as it can make you extremely valuable. People are becoming more and more interested in native plants and ecological gardens so if you learn more about those topics it can add a lot to your business!
Love this. I worked with a landscaping business for 2 years and the money is real. We don't need anyone to tell us how much our labor is worth. Do like my guy here and decide for yourself.
I am 31 and work for myself doing home improvement for last 2 years and I found a lot of value from this video. You reaffirmed a lot that I have been learning on my own being a single man business. Thanks brother. I subscribed with the condition you make more lifestyle videos . Peace ✌

I used to clean pools as a young man and remember coming across thousands of yard care pros, some would make up to 7-10k a month. One guy took care of 1 family's yards they were dairy farmers each paid 3k a month for total yard care.
To turn easier with a push mower in a fenced in yard make two passes along the fence then when making passes you can turn without the handle hitting the fence.
it’s crazy how much you charge (50$)! in canada right now i charge 27 dollars CAD which is 20.50$ USD 🤣

Make Money Mowing - Howdy! I live in north Dallas and am not able to charge what you charge and was wondering if you could let us in on what your competitors are charging and what kind of push back have you gotten. I am also doing small neighborhood lawns. Some larger ones, I am able to charge 50-60 i.e. on a corner lot with a larger back yard/front yard (Still not large). I up charge trimming hedges and roll that into the cost like $10 more every time I mow for hedges. Do you lose a lot of quotes due to high price and just take the ones you want? Thanks for the help!
same. im wondering how your getting 50- 60 for this tiny lots
Even more impressive is he did all that with one hand the whole day , the whole thing .... the other was holding the camera for us to enjoy!!!!
I like that “We don’t chase them, we replace them” thank you bro for this knowledge that you have shared, I appreciate the behind the scenes input you mentioned about mowing lawns that are right next to each other, may you continue to prosper 💪🏽💯
Can you talk about how you accept payments? It doesn’t seem like you see all your customers every time you cut their grass
Whoever is gonna see this. I recommend..Always do proper 100% work. No shortcuts
Keep learning and doing research
Never undercharge. Always charge based on your abilities and skills
Have self respect and don't be a pushover
Stick to your guns and your pricing
Eat well/healthy and stay fit
You're gonna make it!
