[mattamus2005]

Hi Everybody, I'm David, and im new here I live in lexington N.C and just started my lawn care busniess "Grass Patrol Landscaping" 1 month ago. I started with a 96' dodge dakota pick up truck, snapper 22'' self propelled walk behind, weed eater trimmer I got for 20 bucks. Recently I bought a echo brush trimmer, a poluan 14'' chainsaw, poluan 205mph blower/vaccum and I got some colored busniess cards 500ct, 3 magnetic truck signs, 10 yard signs 2x3', and I made 350 custom flyers. So far I have 10 customers. *2 busniess properties, 1 residential development, 5 weekly residential properties, and 2 monthly residential properties. I work part time at Wal-mart and I go to a community college for horticulture, and busniess. I want to eventually do this full time when i build up my clientail where I have year round work. Right now its just me and my fiance' doing it all. ************** David, * * *Grass Patrol Landscaping

yeah it is hard to read llol srry.
I have just been passing out flyers and busniess cards at stores, resturants, Busniesses, housing developments, taping to mailboxes, and handing them out at local home improvement stores. Also i went to local realtors and offered my services to them to help with their listings and asked for list of property managers, home owners who rent their propertys, and apartments. I had some truck signs made, and 10 yard signs im currently having done.I'll try and get some pic posted soon.
