  • Today we're interviewing Jake from Jake's Quality Lawn Care over in Grand Rapids Michigan, taking a peak at his incredible lawn care setup! Jake has been growing his company for the last 5 years and it's crazy to see what he's put together.
    Jake gave us the full walk around on his 2022 lawn care trailer setup, including showing off his new truck, trailer, and stand on Vertex mower from Exmark.
    You can hear more about Jake's incredible story on today's episode on the Fullerton Unfiltered podcast here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...

      I did this business for the last 7 years. I was also doing Uber and food delivery as well on the side. I did a plan where I started at 4am every morning doing Uber x then I would go and cut lawns. Some days I would make 7-800. My wife thought I was crazy but after seeing the money it was good. I don't work weekends though I make enough during the week. I became a millionare and have a house and truck that are paid for.

    @jronmanlawn Před rokem +1

    I have been blessed to be able to get customers from word of mouth. Not a very viable option for big city but in my small town of around 3000 it works great. I am super busy with close to 40 yards. I am really considering hiring an employee next year. Been doing it solo since I started in 2019. I will probably be asking the ones I turned down this year if they need my services next year so I can have enough work when I hire an employee. The biggest hurdle will be getting enough work for two people. Worst case scenario they don't need my services. I am hoping I can consolidate the residentials I have now into 2 days then use two other days for commercials. Maybe I would have a full to half day to do extra residentials if I can't fit everything onto one day. The guy that taught me to mow professionally tends to offer me some properties (mostly commercials) every so often so I might have opportunities from him next season. He is trying to cut back to eventually fully retire from mowing.

Probably wait till spring to grab one. Just getting started so just about every dime is reinvested it seems, to build to something like this.

      Hey Matt! Cabinet is actually a helmet cabinet from the trailer manufacturer (since they also make snow mobile and motorcycle trailers). Dealer had a brand new one that someone ordered and then returned. So we made him a low ball offer and got it for a deal. Installed it ourselves.
