If you are looking to start a lawn care business, I am giving 7 tips to stand out from the crowd. Providing good quality work is not one of the tips. That is a given. The most important way to stand out in my opinion is online. If you don’t stand out online, then you are probably not going to get near as many customers, even if the quality of your work is excellent. I recommend developing your social media profiles as well as having a nice lawn care website. I would also recommend working on SEO so that your rank on the search engines.
Offering specialized services such as weed control can also set you apart in a crowded industry.

Very good tips. One thats always helped with customer relationships is to always go the distance. Don't be afraid to do a little extra when need be. It's gotten me so many referrals that i haven't had to advertise any more. It's all word of mouth.
Don't show up to your job with a lawnmower hanging out the trunk of your Honda accord. (I've seen this)
Now if only Google would stop playing games with my business profile. They shut it down almost a year ago and it's been next to impossible trying to get whatever fixed to satisfy them. They simply refer you to their guidelines and expect you to know what's wrong.
Hey I got another couple of questions. So when I form a llc with the truck I own and use as a daily driver can I keep that insured and registered under my name or does it have to go under the business's name? And the same with the trailer? If so how do I go about this?
Edit: Thanks for the informative video all of them have been a great help.
Sound advice that provides value to customers and is a differentiator for you that makes it difficult for customers to leave. Reduced customer attrition lowers your cost of doing business. Nailed it!
