It all depends on how much you are willing to work. As I'll show you in this video, you can make $300+ in a single day of mowing lawns. Some people choose to do this 5 days a week, grossing them about $1,500/week. I instead prefer to mow only on weekends in which I can bring in ≈ $400-$500. Let me know if you'd like to see more entrepreneurship videos!

haha, I just back from mowing today actually, I'm 19 and I run my own landscaping company. I made a round 440 just today. keep grinding boys

Imagine living in one of those houses in Orlando and you see this random guy on KZfaq from across the country talking about how much your yard is worth...

Blue collar hustle with mowing lawns haha I respect it.

$300 per day?! WOW!! That is more then most people make at their full time job. Nice!!

I like this guy's thinkin. If the customers check bounces just remind them "I know where you live 😉" haha

I am 13 years old, and I can't wait to have a mowing business

Great advice, it warms my heart to see young entrepreneurs killing it, I am happy to see you manage your business correctly and still have time to educate other via KZfaq, keep up the good work man!

Love that even after 3 years this content is evergreen! Will be sharing with my 14 year old son. Between this and his scrap business he'll be off to a good start. Thanks for the awesome content Nate!

This was really helpful Nick thanks man. I have been looking into starting a lawn care business for about a year now and you broke everything down in a very easy to understand way. You make the best content on youtube I have been watching your videos for 2 years now. Keep up the good work.

Totally going to share this with my brother in law who is in his early twenties and wants to do landscaping on the side. Thanks Nate!

I've been watching so many videos like this as I try to get my lawn care operation up and running. You are the first person who has simplified things enough that it actually feels like I can do this. All the other videos talking about Google Ads/websites/SEO...I'm sure that stuff is important and helpful, but for a small guy just starting out, it feels hopeless and impossible to really break through. Super thankful I found this video!

I've been watching a lot of your videos for making money as a younger person and I'm enjoying the ideas thank you so much. You just earned a new subscriber 🔥🤘👍

I do the same...we use basic equipment and hit 140k plus each of the past 3 seasons 😎

It's so simple but genius. I need to get a pickup so I can start in the summer. Great model and great tips.

Great video Nate! I love the idea of people doing services in their local communities to make money,. In my opinion, if you want to be an entrepreneur a home service business is the first business you should start. I started a BBQ cleaning and repairs business 4 years ago when I was first starting college and I've managed to scale it to almost 500k in revenue this past year. Aside from lawn care, there's a lot of opportunities in home services in general. The best thing to do is to scan your local market for home service opportunities by finding specific services with not many businesses servicing the particular market. That way you don't have to compete on price and can charge good money for your services. I'm at the point where I charge around $250 to clean a barbecue and it takes me under 2 hours... doesn't get much better than that 😎

I also live in PA and am looking at starting a grass mowing business so thank you for the tips and advice

Nice video Nate, great systematic approach. It's definitely not a walk in the park, but it's definitely worth it for the financial freedom & ability to choose your own hours.

Hey Nate great video with some very useful insight tips!!! It has given me food for thought. Thanks a lot 💪🏼

This is the best video I’ve ever seen very descriptive great job I will definitely use these tips!

About to Start this as my side hustle. Thank you so much!

Bro, you are so much of a help......it's people like you in the world that make all the difference!!! Peace bro and thank you! ✌🏾👍🏾

Exactly my boss told me if you make business cards to make them simple

Very wrong about social media. What I did was joined my towns Facebook group with 30,000 people, a location where people are looking for services. I posted in there and the phone was ringing off the hook, made $15000 this summer. Social media is the most effective you just have to go where people are looking.

I look up to you, man. I would love to start my own lawn business one day.

I been wanting to do this for a while. I'm going to start looking at some equipment on line. Nice video

The word lazy tactic and lazy made me watch this video, keep up the great 👍🏼 work . I have loads of morons place I live who love cutting corners and expecting big money in a short span .

Thanks for making this video. You gave me a lot of good tips, and its nice to know the standard price for mowing.

"A lot of hard work". Way to go! Anyone who's willing to work hard can succeed!

Nate I know how much you love mowing. I’m the same. I just want to stop everything and mow lawns for the rest of my life. I know it’s a lot of work but I love it. I’m glad u get some time to yourself now traveling and camping.

Keep up the hard work bro this helped me a lot

I know first hand that this is an awesome money maker! I funded my travel for a long time off mowing lawns in my free time!

Great video but just a sidenote, the mowing time alone with a push mower on those properties you were zooming in on would take at least 45 minutes by itself Not including edging trimming and blowing the debris. I like your price point of $35 though that’s a great price and then as the business grows you can Increase speed with faster and more powerful equipment and keep your rates the same which will appease the customer. There is a definite learning curve when getting good at cutting lawns though, I would suggest working for a commercial company for a summer to get some sort of experience before diving headfirst into your own lawn business

Good beginner video. I started out the same in the beginning of my lawn service business. Quickly moved up to zero turns by saving 50% of my income. With zero turn and 2 man crew easy 15-25 yards in a day. $600-$1250 a day in revenue at lowest average price per residential home.

I live in PA too and you're right, our weather sucks. Can't compare it to Alaska, but it is just the back and forth of wet cold days and icy snowy days. Then that 2 and a half months of decent weather, lol.

I do the same in UK, but have safety equipment and insurance. I do most general garden work though, not just lawns. In some areas if it is just a lawn day I can manage three to four.

i am in mass,the problem here is the competition and the low ballers that will cut that for 20 bucks

Today me and my friends created a new lawn mowing business that does car washing and cleaning out trash bins. This is good advice for us since we're only kids. We went scouting and already picked up 3 customers and 4 who are interested. We have a Monday discount which includes all of them. In my neighborhood we have to be flexible with our prices since lawn care is big in Georgia. We have to to get customers but we plan to build up prices eventually.

Awesome informative video Nate! Can you send a link to the flyer you mentioned in the video? This idea sounds interesting but would help seeing an example flyer to see how to get started😅

Thanks for the info very informative! I am planning on doing this this year!!!

Started with a 30 year old club cadet zero turn and a weed eater that hardly cranked. Now I have a brand new John Deere and all the Stihl equipment you can think of. Paying my way through college as well. Cutting grass is the way to go for sure. When I first started I averaged $30 a yard. Now I’m around $80 average per yard! Just have to work for it.

Great video Nate! I love that you point out how little equipment you actually need to start a lawn care business. I make $600-$800 a day with just a line trimmer, mower, and leaf blower, all out of my van (no trailer). This is also fantastic advice regarding basic marketing for lawn care business beginners. Thanks Nate!

This business reminds me of my friend's, dad's landscaping business. Big money, brutal work. It is worth the pay off though!

You sound EXACTLY like me I love the heat I love mowing lawns Every point you made in the video I can relate to I HATE the snow I also live in PA

Thank you so much for much sharing. Love you, bro.

KZfaqr: you cant go wrong with this business The one guy who cut his foot off: Bruh

I feel you man I wanna start this business as a side hustle but here in illinois crappy weather, but in the winter you can still plow snow

You can work hard or work smart , which do you think your doing .I think you can do so much better if you get out of that mind set and buy faster quiptment and cut your days by 2/3 and increase 300 to 900 day.With DBA , EIN , Liablity insurance .Your a walking liablity when you dont pay taxes or have insurance .If you damage some proprerty its game and match.

I’m about to type out some flyers and then put them out in letter boxes gonna make it my full time business I’m in year nine finishing in year ten and this is what I’ll do

Great video. Thank you!

Great idea going to give it try mate, that is some money fair play dude

Yes I would like to see more video's like this.

Great video, but I noticed 2 things one Craigslist is now charging 5.00 per add and also you multiplied it by 52 weeks. I live in PA and I start in May and end in late November early December. It is very hard to get several properties back to back. One thing I have my guys do is every time we mow a lawn we put flyers 5 doors down each side and a cross the street. I wish you the best, keep up the great work.

This is so great! Tell us more about similar business ideas

Green Gold!

really sick video man im planning to do this when the winter is over and have been appreciating these videos haha

Thank you Nate! Yes more videos on lawn care business please

Awesome info for starting a business like this.... Cheers

I used to live in Orlando and that is great advice but I would go more into the suburbs such as Windermere because the lawns are even smaller and you know the customers have money

Thanks for this video it was really helpful and motivational!!

If anyones looking for a great inexpensive trimmer look at the STIHL 56, cost is $200 at the time i purchased it. Its a residential trimmer but a guy that works at the dealer told me he cut 50 yards a week with it. Yes it might not last as long doing that but it is great for the money, I have used it for 2 years now and i love it, it controls really nice for light trimming and has a lot of power for heavy grass.

I love mowing the lawn so this would be a good job

Hey Nate. I watched this video a year ago and started a lawn business which I’m still doing today. I am now watching stock videos and saw you again and was like woah is that the same person as last year. Anyways man you’re doing amazing and you’re ahead of me but I’m learning from you and so interested. I would love to ask you a few questions if you’re able to find time please get back to me

I have an Electric lawn mower lol... works great, no fuel costs and never really notice a difference in power bill. Interesting Video

I’ve had great success in social media marketing. I just started my own business this January and already have 30 yards. The best way to do it is use Facebook groups and the NextDoor app.

This is an awesome video!

Im a full time trucker Monday- Friday. Which is my stable job. I make around 1,300 a week. The governemnt takes around 300 which is a full day. My father has his own lawn care business & I learned it when I work with him . I have the basic equipment like this guy. I work on Saturdays from 7am -11am doing landscaping & i easily get 150 in 4 houses. I do quick house with no trees or bushes. Only quick simple house . Basically i do this to get half of whats taken from me. So its basically straight cash & i dont get that taken away. My house are from $35-50 bucks

Great idea. I know a guy whos retired and its all he does on top of his RRSP. Connecting with a client is important. The guy I mentioned use to have no friendliness, or compassion to even attempt to be on common ground with a client. Hed take offers on his price which ticked him off, and I saw him throw his hands up when a client dropped him by $5. Sigh. How about a little sign stuck in the grass by the sidewalk as free advertiseing?

Thanks for the advice about social media

I love landscaping it’s great

Mowing is what made America great.

I live in Miami, and there is a ton of competition in the lawn care industry here.

Great video bro👍

One thing about a trimmer don't leave gas in the tank over winter or something just like if will not be used for 3 or 4 months unless your have no ethanol gasoline

more of these vids please nate cheers

Great info!

Great video!

I love cheap business ideas . Nice video mate!

holy shit this video was actually the best video on this topic so far. what a chad

A lot of areas do require a riding mower to be time efficient. My area doesn't have these postage stamp yards. 1/3 to 1/2 acre minimum, and just about every yard has hills, cause we're in the foothills. Not mowing that in 30 min, even if you're an athlete. I push mowed my yard for nearly 2 years before I finally broke down and got a used riding mower. It takes on average 1.5 hrs to push mow my 1/3 acre yard front and back.

Ur not weird ... i like the work too....its ur hard work ...ur the boss👍💪

300$ per day😮 You're only 19 in this video 😮 I wonder how big that squash that you plant is going to get. Thanks for the digital marketing agency video. It's really helpful.❤

That’s good I started like that to and now I am about to buy a big ride on machine

I started when I was about 13 with a 3 or $400 self propelled Honda mower, and $150 RYOBI trimmer and blower combo. I’m now 16 using the same equipment, but gonna kick up the workload.

Love small business ideas. Please share more.

Where's the flyer though? Thought you were going to put it in the description.

Now this is more like it I can get behind good ol hard work and raw profit

Hey, you mow AND invest. Lol awesome thanks for the vids dude.

So knowledgeable, I was impressed ur so young and I love mowing pple around here say ur a girl put ur man to work .Uhm no it’s my therapy I love it

Cool video need more

You mentioned you had a flyer template and I don't see it in the description. Is there any way I can get it?

You are not weird I enjoy mowing lawns too.

KZfaqr: 25 dollars that's not a lot. Me about to charge 10 dollars a lawn 😬

Social media marketing is exactly what you want to do, get in the small community pages for your neighborhoods. If you can get some of your clients to refer you on those pages then you'll never spend another dime on advertising. I get several leads a day just from social media referrals.

I lived in Jupiter Florida on a 1/3 of an acre and it only cost me 25 a week and that’s in a much nicer place then Orlando

Wheres the link to the flyer template?

Great job 👏 thanks

a little low on the prices but good information we are at $40 minn for a service visit , Seems and sounds easy to get and land clients but honestly its tons of hard work and dedication , clients will see the cheap guy coming from a mile away and will take full advantage of it so never ever sell your self short even if its just you running lawns ... This is more than a quick money business . RTO on door hangers are roughly a per 1000 you get maybe 10 calls . Best advice is to get a website built and get on social media ... We have a few videos on our channel that covers all this getting started first year of business and website and social media help as well .... You did a great job but for sure could use a lil more information to help you subs out ... Great work on the video new sub here will be watching from here on out

I’m 14 , have a zero turn mower and started cutting lawns this year, I made around 1 grand doing 2 lawns in a year

at the end of this vid hes like this is a lot of snow and im like lol you shod se wer i liv thats not much snow
