The Opportunity Hiding in Plain Sight
|
Hey Reader, Ever notice how lawn care guys just... vanish? One week, they're mowing. Happens all the time. Most contractors just shrug and move on. But what if I told you there's a goldmine hidden in these disappearances? Here’s an idea I’ve shared with other contractors—and I’ve seen it work really well on occasion. When you do a quote and find out it’s because their lawn guy has recently gone missing… 👉 Find out how long ago they went missing. Find out what happened. If they’re quitting due to unforeseen circumstances (family emergency, health issues, moving away)... Make them an offer: "Text your clients that you can't continue, but you're recommending me. For every customer who signs up with me, I'll pay you $X amount." Think about it...
This turns their unfortunate situation into instant cash. And you? You just got a ready-made customer list. One contractor I shared this with picked up half a dozen new clients in a week—and chucked the guy $600 for just sending the text. That’s $600 for the guy who was quitting... Everyone wins. The best part? They’re too busy chasing new leads while these opportunities slip by unnoticed. So the next time a new lead says to you, “My last lawn guy went missing,” ask a few questions. It’s not always worth chasing up... Until next time, get out there, mow lawns and have fun Stuart Lawnmowing101 P.S.

There’s a saying in marketing:People need to see your brand seven times before it sticks. And in the lawn care world, most of those “seven times” happen when you’re not even thinking about marketing. Like when you’re out there mowing a lawn in a branded shirt. Your truck might be parked down the street, but they will still know who you are. While you are just mowing the lawn. But someone walking their dog… someone peeking through the window… a curious neighbor glancing over the fence… They...
When you're just starting off, you want to say yes to everything. And honestly, if you've got the gear, you're confident doing the work, and it helps pay the bills? Then go ahead. Take the job. I did the same. In the early days, I was doing a bit of everything. Mowing, hedging, pressure washing, the odd bit of garden cleanup. If someone asked, I said yes. But as time went on, I started to see the cracks. Some jobs were a pain. Some didn’t pay that well. Some required gear I barely used, just...
When I first started my lawn mowing business, I thought I was being smart with my money. I found a cheap van for sale. It looked good, and I was imagining how much better it would look with a bit of sign writing. It ran fine during the test drive — and it would be perfect for mowing, I thought. So I bought it. About a month later, the engine blew up. Completely stuffed. No warranty. No recourse. Because it was a private sale. I was gutted. It felt like a kick in the guts, especially that...
