It is not bad to be doing only granular applications in the beginning. Just try to put an emphasis on increasing new clients And Increasing your program closer to 6-7 lawn applications per year. Then when you get closer to capacity it makes sense to do a mixture of some granular and some liquid. Example of Granular Program with use of backpack sprayer only! App 1 - Pre Emergence Plus Fertilizer App 2 - More Pre Emergence Plus Fertilizer App 3 - Fertilizer Plus Spot Spray Broadleaf Weeds App 3b - Spot Spray Nutsedge App 4 - Spot Spray Weeds App 4b - Grub Control App 5 - Fall Fertilizer App 6 - Winterizer

Dylan Stephenson! This series is brought to you by Lawncare Leaders. We are tracking the real life weekly happenings of small business owners just like you. This will be an experience like no other as we get a chance to do life with these guys from the end of their lawn and landscape season in 2020, through their winter, as they prep for a new year and into the chaos of spring rush. This is not an interview. These are calls where I check in on business owners and ask them the hard questions… We use each phone call to build on the next and make sure that we know what they are going through and how we can help. In this series there are a total of 4 business owners. The first two business owners are going into their second year of full time lawncare. The second group, one is going into their 5th year and then the other is going into their 11th year of business. We are going to bring you 2 of these calls each week. Every Tuesday and Wednesday we will drop the conversation. And it will be in the same order. Our goal with this series is for you to be able to relate with someone that is similar in your business size. Not every phone call will be overly entertaining but that is business isn't it. We all deal with a billion decisions and come up with 100 solutions to hard problems on a weekly basis. So by hearing the highs, lows and real life thoughts of owners on a weekly basis we get a chance to go through this journey as a community. ———————————————————— Links: https://linktr.ee/Lawncareleader intentionalgrowthadvisors@gmail.com http://www.intentionalgrowthadvisors.com https://jobber.grsm.io/brittdowd7100

Don't be a stand alone body of water. Those remain the same size or worse they dry up. Be sure that you are using your cash flow streams to connect to other peoples cash flow streams. This is not to leverage a relationship simply for more money but rather to deepen the relationships and further intertwine both networks, resources and power. ————————————————————

Matt is a great guy with a great family. He started off as a pastor and slowly saw a need for mowing and lot maintenance in his neighborhood.

As things grew Matt new mental, physical and spiritual health had to be first on his “to do” list. Making sure his faith and personal well being was healthy meant being the next for his family.

After we posted on Instagram about leasing some new trucks we have been getting hammered with questions and comments about this topic. I will say this whole show is a thesis of what I have experience. Each business owners needs are different and those needs change year to year. We chat about both options and explain why Green Again Lawn has decided to start leasing their trucks. We didn’t make a full switch but are transitioning over the course of 2-3 years. As we begin to start new locations we still may start with a solid paid for truck and laid for equipment. But as we try to scale where we are at leasing seems to be our best option. ———————————————————— Please share the podcast could be someone you look up to, a competitor or buddy you know is getting after it in this industry!

A listener asks “What are you going to change next year”? — Which sparks a thirty minute conversation with myself! Listen to this episode on 5 things I did wrong this lawncare season, how I learned from those mistakes and what I’m implementing to be sure I do better next year. Five learning lessons
- Put wrong guy in the wrong spot. Didn’t give proper feedback and set specific expectations
- Didn’t put enough ownership on each route manager
- Had to give up some quality to ensure we hit the correct quantity. Going from 3-7 was big jump. Did ride with our guys enough
- Organization and systems were not there. Specifically systems around maintenance, cleaning and tools
- Did not provide myself enough margin in my days to be sure details are tightened up and taken care of. I do great job of growth, projections and vision. Need to tighten up organization and details.

The first guy mentions that that will take days and a lot of wasted time going backwards. Which guys do you think made it to the other side??
staying out of debt and going slow, taking a job with less pay for the future rather than the immediate compensation, relationship struggles you have to go back to why you fell in love or why you care for that person as a friend, people wake up every day to find themselves achieving all of their monetary or possessions dreams only to realize they have to go backwards and find out who God made them as a person and why they are here on this earth.
Stretching and experiencing pain-
Margin- The ability and capacity to take advantage of opportunities that you can’t yet see
Margin provides a growth but for growth you must experience pain
Go over main pillars in my life
Faith, family, fitness, finance, future
Family- We must make deposits into relational banks. We also must withdraw from those banks to be fulfilled ourselves Carve out time for friends and family. Be sure to keep in mind this theory
Fitness- https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.brookings.edu/opinions/exercise-increases-productivity/amp/
How many of you guys have eaten too much and you felt like crap or eaten something bad and felt like crap?
What we eat can change how we feel,
how we feel can change how we think,
how we think can determine our goals and ambitions,
our ambitions can determine motivation and work ethic,
our motivation can determine our outcomes Outcomes determine our future. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Just a reminder if ya like the podcast give us a follow on Instagram @lawncareleaderspodcast and on Facebook under Lawncare Leaders.

Clockwork Intwrview
Story of Celeste worked herself to the point where she didn’t want to live
Your not the problem your systems are
Chapter 1 Why your business is still stuck
You talk about not being really there. I can completely relate to this. I don’t have struggles hitting the stop button but the reminance of my day is still on my mind and in my demeanor
PRODUCTIVITY leaves more on your plate. You can outsource the work but you can’t outsource the decisions
What we should be striving for is organizational efficiency. When all the gears in your company move in perfect harmony to create leverage and margin
A good business is about selective efficiency not Mass productivity
SURVIVAL TRAP you go from problem to problem and get a high off of being the solution. Your business constantly pulls you back into it.
7 Steps of Clockwork
- Analyze your companies time We start off DOING everything. We are the linchpins. We have to shift from DOING to DESIGNING our work flow. FOUR D’s DOING, DECIDING, DELEGATING DESIGNING
- Declare your companies queen bee role
- Protect and serve the QBR
- Capture Systems
- Balance the Team
- Know who your serving
- Keep an eye on your business

Mowing Profit Vs Lawn Application Profit I take a phone call from Nate Riley of Riley Brothers Lawncare. In this conversation we discuss my viewpoints on why mowing may feel better for cash flow in the short term, but lawn applications are better profit. We also talk about the reasoning behind these price differences. Luxury vs necessity, ease of entry into the business, education, equipment, application practices and technical skills that allow you to be viewed as a professional and not a laborer. To Scale or not to scale! We also deep dive into one stop shop companies, margins, profit, expanding into different services and how mowing cash flow pays differently than lawn applications.

This is a documented mash up of me going door to door selling our services. You hear me get rejected, overcoming those objections and pressing forward to close a sale. It’s all a numbers game. It’s in the 2% where champions are made. Most people don’t push through pain, fear and rejection long enough to reap the benefit of 2%.

I think we all are looking for better ways to start our day/week. In this segment you'll hear how we break down a portion of our Monday Morning Meeting. From addressing goals, to weaknesses, achievements and what we are grateful for. This just gives you a little insight into how we set our perspective for the entire week. Find us on instagram to be a part of our journey as a company and to learn the best in lawncare leadership. @green_again_lawn You can also find my personal page on twitter @bdowd32 Please leave comments and feedback for better content and what your business pain points might be!!!!
