Did some more research today. There are 17 landscaping companys in the area listed in the yellow pages, now that right there would scare off most people, but I know for a fact that there are jobs out there even with that many companys out there because I worked for that landscaper this spring, and he was out straight for the 1st month, even though his prices were high because everybody calls at the same time and expects you to be there tomorrow. He did both commercial and residential work. He had 90 lawns in 2004, but for 2005 he only had around 30 left, all of them went to pretty much one new landscaper who did it for half price and others who were cheaper. Darn good way to bankrupt the competition I might add who's paying payments on a bunch of new stuff. The guys who have low overhead have the ability to charge way less and make money. Definatly something I will want to watch that because it's so easy to think big and buy new trucks, mowers, etc... and then your luck changes.
Thanks all!
