Lawn care business tips

My view is, you should take advantage of every season to promote a seasonal service. Once you get an opportunity to meet a new customer, then you have the ability to upsell them on an annual lawn care contract.

Right now is a great time to put out stuff for leave raking or final preparation before winter. Of course if you are in a climate that gets a cold and snowy winter.
