Mowing yards for CASH

[stinkyattic]

no seriously that's how it is. No sex (he's still hopin' though, lol). It's all good. I'm set with that... shall we say that I have moved on to um bigger and better things?

lol my grandpa built his own buisness on lawn care... 5-6 customers per day every day going back every once or twice a month (depending on when they wanted him to come back) we lived off him soley mowing yards for a long time (he was very successful in it o.0)

now he's got like 5 customers total... and only a single push mower and a weed eater going to each one about once every 3 weeks...

lol he refused to get a real job after he got fired from the plant cuz he couldn't just pop open a beer while working as a cashier or short order cook or something (And thank god he didn't become a short order cook.... ~SHUDDERS~) i think i'd rather eat a pubic hair and pus sandwhich then have him within 10 feet of my food..

yup..and acctually..i went around today looking for yards..the first two houses i went to..nobody was home and the third one the lady wanted me to mow it. I told her 25 to mow and weedeat. THen i started and the fucking zero turn wouldn't work right..so i pushed mowed the yard and she wrote me a check for 35. But she said this would prolly be the only time i'd have to mow it cuz they usually do..it's just been too fucking hot.

Nice! It'll be a pain in the ass to get going, but as long as you sell yourself (not like that!) to your customers than they should have no problem helping you out with a good reference.
Heres how: Do a good job on the lawn
Make "friends" with your potential clients
Ask them in a non pushy way "it would reaaaaly HELP ME OUT" if you could give me list of 10 friends or family that have lawns! Maybe call 1 or 2 of them right now?

give it a try and I'll bet you can pull it off!

i just grab the lawn mower... and maybe a weed eater, and walk around town, and knock on doors and ask if i can mow their lawns... and do it right there on the spot...
