Default Starting Over

Hi All, Not new to the site, but in the past I was not one to post much. I've been doing landscape maint. now for about 5 yrs. I was just not profitable. I was planning on leaving the business, but I really do enjoy the work. So, this year I'm treating my business as if I'm just startin out. Fresh start, clean slate, all that good stuff. Recieved alot of good advice in the past in these forums. Spring is almost here, so good luck to all this coming year... Jim

What do you feel led to you not being profitable? How are you going to correct it this year?
