21. When Should You Go Full Time In Your Lawn Care Business? w/ Host Brian Fullerton Mar 24, 2020

Show notes

One of the most frequently asked questions I receive is when should I go full time in my lawn care business? That's a great question, one that I wanted to devote a chunk of time to and explain my thought process behind the big move.

Over the years I've always tried to give conservative advice and on this topic, I to be even more extreme on the advice we give. The bottom line is, there's a lot of factors that need to be weighed out intelligently. You have to get so many ducks in a row, that it's never an easy 5 minute answer.

I do my best to share my perspective on the topic, and hopefully give you guys some encouragement that are looking to make the jump into going full time with your own business. Enjoy!

Show notes

Today we're going to be sharing my personal story about how we've used debt over the last decade plus and my thoughts and opinions on GOOD debt.

A lot of folks have mixed opinions and mixed feelings about debt, which I totally get, but I have an entirely different approach and appreciation for good debt. This is just my story and my personal opinion, take it for what it's worth, but at the end of the day, I think you might subscribe to what I share with my personal experience with DEBT.

18. Coronavirus: Surviving Entrepreneurship During A Pandemic Mar 18, 2020

Show notes

We didn't want to talk about it, but the fight became personal when it started effecting the economy of the lawn and landscape industry just about a week ago. I had a number of people ask me to weigh in after a handful of coaching calls and DM's on instagram, so here is my opinion on the matter.

No matter what political aisle your on, no matter your beliefs about the whole situation, the facts are, people are going to lose a lot of business and number two, life will go on. This pandemic is causing a lot of people to think about their circumstances, so hopefully this is an upbeat voice and episode to help you guys make the best of things as we head into the upcoming season.

Just know that I care about you guys and am praying for everyone of you, always. Together, we can fight this off and get the economy (and everyones health) back on track. Wherever this thing takes us, we all go together. Let's do it.
