Landscape Business Course | Inspired By Landscape Business Pro, Lawn Care Millionaire, Dirt Monkey, Lawn Marketing Expert

Warning: this episode is chopped up advice and has a lopped sided perspective.... but it brings a balance to our industry. Should you buy a big mower, skid steer, excavator???

Is your business anti-fragile? Is it resilient and nimble or can it be broken easily? If you got injured would the business stop? If the economy tanked would you survive? Learn how to dominate in times of adversity instead of contract and retreat.
