Now that a lot of us will be transitioning into leaf cleanups within a month or so, I was wondering how everyone's season has been. Mine has been great. Non stop busy, and the lack of rain we had at the end of summer has finally ended and we got over 6 inches in the past 2 days. During the dry spell I still maintained a weekly schedule on all of my customers, but it was getting to the point where I wouldn't be for long. Haven't posted many lawn striping pics lately, but I do have a photo of some high visibility/reflective tape I installed on my trailer gate to get ready for the fall and winter months, where I am often working in the dark. What do you think? I would love to hear about how your season has went as well. :thumbsup:

Mine has been great as well. I used to work for a lawn company for 3 years. And then decided to have my own. So last year I started it about half way through the year. This has been my first full year of my business. And I think I did pretty well. I have about 45 accounts now. I'm planning on doing one more full season by myself. And then after that, hire one employee. This year I have all my new equipment also. Like my pro turn 148, and pro stance 36. So they should last me atleast 5 years I'm hoping. So this next year coming up I plan on being able to pocket a good amount of the money. Good luck!
