Ok 2 7ft triple cylinder mowers take a guess?

 

There's 6 k in trailers.

 

Pickup truck to move these trailer with 1 tonne mowers sat on them.

 

Plus varying other mowers 7 I think.

2 Hondas, 2 big cylinder walk behinds, mulcher mower flail mower .

 

3 Big strimmers.

 

The money is in the big mowers trailers and pickup

I'm not being negative!

But you state that you employ climbers and arborists yet then state that you work for your dad it did not seem to add up.

 

As for costs these big mowers are huge money but they cut grass fast and leave a better finish than rotary mowers do.

That johndeere you have looks like a nice piece of kit. But I would not be quick enough for me.

 

With all that kit how come your not out there full time already ?

 

Website does not need to cost the earth.

Charging £150 a day for you and a bloke is way to low, and this is not meant to seem rude but do you know much about business? How much are you paying the bloke? How much are you paying yourself? Is this thread genuine? I mean I've just re read the whole thing and I'm not sure you realise how it comes across.

I wasn't saying your the negative one sorry if it came across that way. I employ them on piece work as they have full time jobs too! Where do you get websites done I'm not clever enough to do one and I want to go full time gardening but it's not established enough and haven't got enough work coming in to warrant quitting with dad. Dad pays me a decent wage, I want to be independent but a lack of private jobs means I'm left with about 3000£ I make from private jobs! I want to make good money some how !!

Got to agree with Hodge £150 a day is contract climber pay, not enough to run a successful company with all the overheads etc.

I certainly don't know a great deal about business I'm 23 and got a long way to go and learning the ropes will take time and that's why I'm asking for advice!
