You registered a business in your name, at the age of 16. Right....
I'm also fairly certain you cant hold an insurance policy of your own until you're 18.

I was 17 and a few days when I registered what I said was misleading I was registered from mid December. And yes I hold my gl insurance policy. Maybe it's an Ontario thing never had to really look into it. I had a whole bunch more typed up but my phone died before I posted anyways its late if you have any more questions shoot em quickly or il reply tomorrow

I started myself last season. Last year i grossed about $8,000 between mowing and landscape jobs. I have already doubled the amount of weekly clients from last year and i am hoping to pick up a few more. And it looks like i will have a total yard renovation coming in march or april which alone will be a few grand.

The year after I want to pick up a new half ton to run my mowing and such and maybe a one ton dump for installs.. Sounds a bit ambitious but I know I can make it happen...

How do you manage doing all this if you go to school? if you do that much work do you have full time employees

I'm finished school now. And the last two semesters I was only there 2 days a week and getting credits for every 110 hours of work. Yes had 1 full time last year he's gone so looking for two for this year

You do it need more than ever for residential..what if you break a window in the house or car? What if you seriously damage a car with a rock? A lot of us smaller companies couldn't take that kind of hit.
