I am a 25 Year old lawn care and landscape LCO. I started my first business in 2006 in the state of WV and now relocating to Garner NC while still having my company in WV. I am just now getting on my feet here in NC where I am anxious to get started and get some clients! I have just received my first advertising pack that will go out this weekend which contains: 5,000 door hangers, 50 (18x24) yard signs, 2,000 business cards. With this I am hoping to receive quite a bit of calls and hopefully lock in some clients! My second set of advertising (3 weeks after the 1st set go out) will be post cards to those same targeted 5,000 houses!

In wv i obtained 115 weekly accounts with 3 employees. My return or "all back" rate from flyers and door hangers was 2.3% which worked very well and i would lock in 75-80% of those calls with work so this same procedure really paid off! I will post some of my work from wv and from here as the season passes, also if i figure out how to post my business cards and flyers/ door hangers i will do that as well.

I am excited and anxious to see what NC has to offer and get out there and do some work! Goodluck to all in the 2013 season! To all the lawn guys in johnston county if you want to send me a pm or anything would be nice to know someone around town!
