Best Commercial Mulching Mower for Nebraska

Man you are cold hearted!:laughing: he can't fire his brother. They will just have to pound the pavement and get more lawns.

There are very few lawn companies that make it with co owners. You need one and only one boss. I understand that he's only 17 and all it would take is some young girl to come his way and he might not even want to be in the lawn business anymore. But for people our age who think with the head above our shoulders it's all about the money all the time.

He may be worried his brother will fire him.:laughing:

Haha neither is firing either. Both owners but I pretty much do everything on the business side, and he helps mow and we split the payments. Not a good deal for me :-/ lol

I honestly don't think we can really afford the GrandStand unless we use all the money we have saved up so far. We don't even have a trailer to haul it with let alone a truck. I currently use my parents car and load the mowers, edger, trimmer, and backpack blower in the back of the car. It has a hitch so if we got a trailer we could haul it without having to buy another car. I'm also planning on advertising and hiring a guy to optimize our website and add SEO stuff so we rank high in Google. All of that might not add up to be all of our money but I'm estimating that it would be over half of our money.

I believe you're putting the horse before the cart on that one.

Actually the Kid is right, Marketing is a great deal of building a business but I think he's moving a bit fast. Conner can I ask what do your parents think about what your doing? I ask because if your my kid and you have a business your trying to build, I'd say consider how your spending your money because there better ways for what your trying to do. First let me ask, do you have a DBA yet?

I currently do not have a DBA because my city does not require one of a lawn business. I have everything required to be in business legally. I don't think I'm getting ahead of myself with marketing because I would just buy a cheaper mower like the the Snpper Pro SW25 just so that I could use some money for other things like advertising. I'm not planning on marketing next year with two push mowers. I was thinking i would advertise and if we picked up enough to justify a new mower I would go get one before next season.

My parents approve of our business. I'm not sure what you are asking there but they think it's a good thing. You said there are better ways for what you are trying to do. Like what? What would you say I should spend my money on instead?

I think what Ric is asking is have you ran your ideas by your parents for advice? Sometimes young people will spend too much and get themselves in a hole. Your parents have probably been there themselves and hopefully will give you some advice on how to make sure your business succeeds. I wish you the best of luck. I hope my kids are as industrious as you are some day. I can't get my 13 year old off of her butt to do the dishes.
