I'm 16 and i started when i was 14 and i did leaf cleanups and made mad money, so one day i found a junk mower and the pull cord was only broken so i bough a new cord, fixed it and told the old lady across the street from my to fire her landscaper and i will do it cheaper, and she hired me, and now i have 10 accounts, 32" exmark metro, redmax 7001 blower, cargo van w/ ramps (getting a trailer), stihl weedeater, 21" mower and various hand tools. Still expanding, my dad helps me out when im in school. I use a lot of the flyer's on this site, they helped me land a few customers, and hopefully ill keep getting more. thanks

how does my banner look on my website. do you think i should put it on the bottom of each and every page? or is that going to be too much?

Welcome to the forum!

The website looks great! *Did you do it yourself?

Is your business licensed? *Insured? Are you licensed to apply fertilizer and weed killer?

Hi Big Green,

Welcome to our forum!

Can you take some pictures of what you hand out? Will you be dressing up in a costume too?

What got you to start your own business?
