How To Start A Lawn Care Service Company

By Sally Delacruz


If you are an expert in taking care of the front yard garden or the lawn, then you might want to consider starting a business in that field. You can open up your very own lawn care service in Fuquay Varina NC. With the said business, you can use your knowledge and skills at the job to earn money for yourself.

If you have a company of your own, then you have to turn it into a stable source of income as soon as you can. Once you have a stable company of your own, you will earn more profits than when you are in a company. Moreover, you have the benefits of holding your own time and being accountable for yourself.

Think about starting from scratch. It might be a little bit tedious to start up your business from scratch but that should not be a problem for you. All you have to do is to follow the right steps for the said start-up. Here are the best steps to follow as well as the legal requirements to comply when you are starting this business.

First, you better get yourself a license. This is a business license that will acknowledge your company as a legal business entity. With the license, you can add more credibility to your company to the eyes of your potential clients. To get the license, you have to follow the licensing procedures set by the state office and pay the licensing fees.

The next thing to do is to decide on the business name of the company. It is a must to find a name that fits well with the nature of your company's services. Also, it should be quite an easy name to remember. Aside from the name, you also have to pick a business structure among the many available options you have.

If you are starting small, then there is no need to look for a business location yet. You can just make use of your home address as your agency address. The business location is not your primary concern here but tools for your trade. Instead of space rentals, better spend the money on buying quality shovels, rakes, and other tools of the trade.

Be sure to have a truck. This truck is what you will use to go to your client's house to provide service. Moreover, it is easier to have a truck to move around because you can just put the gardening tools you will use for providing services at the back. It will be convenient for you to have this vehicle.

After that, decide on the pricing. You have to set yourself a price range so that you do not end up with inconsistent price estimates. When you have a pricing list available, then that should make it easier for you to come up with an estimate. Clients will trust your more with their gardens, too.

Marketing the business is a must too. You have to ensure that the business is on classified ads online and on newspapers. Actively market the business to your neighbors too. You have to be proactive in getting clients to ensure that there is a steady flow of work for your business.
