Looking to expand, need advice

Gentlemen, I'm a small lawn care company, 3 employees, looking to expand into the fertilizing and spraying business. 8 years of lawn care but very little knowledge in the other feild. I'll have certification license by Dec. I would all advice on starting small, best equipment, chemicals, fertilizer, wet or dry? In other words I am a green rookie in this field and would appreciate your advice. Thanks, Blue

The most important step is to not mess up... the second would be to look at better timing... around here there is so much pre-m covering the grass seed times that dormant seeding doesn't even have a chance... stupid, stupid, stupid... I tell clients to fire the uncooperative squirt&ferts if they want me to grow grass for them...
