Hey guys i recently decided to start my own lawn care business. Still working out some kinks on my marketing tactics to obtain customers. I decided to get my mower and stuff early. My business will be in full action in the spring but depending on the weather in the fall and winter i could start earlier. Any ideas or suggestions that would be helpful?

Thanks

Maybe you could just do a few lawns now in the evenings or on the weekends until you feel more comfortable with scaling up?
