There is nothing wrong with your equipment.

But what kind of work needs doing in your area?

Here the big farms are 350hp+ tractors, there isn’t anything you could help them with.

The little gardens and such want a pretty little 3pt tractor to do their work and back into corners, they wouldn’t be impressed with a leaky older machine blowing smoke and turning big circles with drawn equipment. As well such suburban areas often have strict licensing deals, to protect the current lawn cutting services.....

I’m just not sure where you would fit with what you got.

You know your neighborhood more than we do, you need to figure your costs per acre and hour, and track down folk that want done what you can get done.

People buy convenience and prestige, you have to offer something they will look fondly at. Save them time, or money, or offer quality, or trendy coolness. Which market will you fit in and go after?

You won’t be fast or cover a lot of acres, you aren’t all polished up gleaming cool, so where do you fit that people will pay you to do some stuff.

That the question you need to figure out.

Good luck, I want you to succeed with it. You need to figure out a local market where people want your service for some reason.
