Lawn care business tips
Hi Chris,

I saw that you posted the same message in a bunch of different areas. I deleted the others so it didn't look like you were spamming the forum. All you need is to post it once and it will be seen.

What got you started in this business?

Before anyone goes further into an unsolicited offer too good to be true, better ask more questions. Confidentiality of your personal and business info should be protected until a nondisclosure agreement is in force. Can Chris provide a business web site, street address, and examples of recent deals with references? Does he have a D & B DUNS number?

Hey guys,
The offer is good for any LC/TC company. Buyers are all over the country. Many references available. Would you like to explore? I hope to hear from you soon.

Chris,

Here is an open stage for you. Tell us what your business does, how you got started. This is a great chance to take advantage of marketing on a forum and meet new lawn care business contacts.

Hey Chris, how long ago did you get banned from lawncafe.com? Wow, they even took down your user name. Did they ban your IP as well?

My firm has been directed to actively evaluate and investigate companies soliciting via internet forums who offer zero credentials. As a public service we perform cursory due diligence background checks utilizing our vast resources to uncover potential fraud. Should any interested party require unbiased business advice, our services are available for a small fee.

Sometimes I hope that when I see a post like this first one, I can somehow get the poster to relax and take part in a forum discussion.

There is a certain way to promote yourself on a forum. It is very socially based and it's like walking into a new club. You should say hello to everyone. Talk a little and let everyone know what business you are in.

Sometimes I am able to welcome new posters in and get them relaxed. To enjoy their experience of taking part on a forum. Other times I can't.

As far as this post goes, all I can say is I hope Chris can relax and talk with people on here. I think it would help him take his business a long way.
