Go down the youtube rabbit hole of lawn care equipment and you can feel defeated... You don't need it man. Get a basic zero turn, some good stick equipment, an open utility trailer, and use your personal truck for pulling it around. Go make money. Just get in the game and figure out marketing and sales and all the other important stuff before you go financing $100k in equipment debt. That's dumb. Keep your overhead how, and your income high. Keep on mowing turf nation!

MY STORY:
In 2016 I had been in law enforcement for 7 years.
I was not in control of my schedule, I was hardly making any money, and I was away from my family working nights and holidays. I was capable of more, and I was silently suffering. I knew I was selling myself and my family short.
I started Florida Turf Pros as a side hustle in 2016 before going full time in 2017.
My lawn business changed my life.
I control my own schedule, control my own income, and I am proud of what I have built; a business that supports me, my family, and some employees.
If you are a lawn care business owner, this channel will be a valuable resource for you.
This really is a great industry to be in, and I hope that by documenting my journey it will help you.
