Key Takeaways

✦

Prioritize early morning starts to maximize productivity and revenue, especially as a solo operator, to stay ahead of competitors.

✦

Offer additional services like plant installations or irrigation repairs to existing, high-value clients at your hourly rate to enhance customer loyalty and generate extra income.

✦

Consider battery-powered 21-inch push mowers for specific properties requiring push mowing, as they offer convenience, efficiency, and eliminate fuel-related maintenance.

✦

Strategically time the sale of used equipment during peak demand seasons (like mowing season) to get the best possible price.

✦

Evaluate your equipment needs based on current business operations; scaling back on larger properties might mean selling heavy-duty equipment for lighter, more suitable alternatives.
