How to Start a Lawn Care Business a Whole New Way! is the title of the book and it is one of The Lawn Blogs must reads. There are a lot of books on this topic out there but only a few can capture its reader. This book when you start to read it you want to finish it...you are able to take something with you, and apply it to your business. Great job Ken! We look forward to any future works.

Starting and Running a fun, profitable
lawncare and landscape business
Even if you have a BROWN THUMB
My name is Ken LaVoie, owner of LaVoie's Landscape Mgmt. Inc. and author of this material.
This ebook and program will teach you step-by-step how to start a PROFITABLE lawn care business OR overhaul your exising one and create an above average income with HUGE benefits--like health care, retirement, TIME OFF, tax benefits--and increase your abilities as a lawn care business owner and leader in your field. I GUARANTEE that this material will save you YEARS of painful, expensive trial and error and get you on the road to BLAZING success quickly--and with lightening effectiveness. I take pride in this program, I've put my name on it, and I stand by it with a 6 month money back guarantee.
Why THIS particular program?:
- I use all these techniques in my own lawn care business which I've run for over twenty years, and I know firsthand that they work.
- I've made all the mistakes so you don't have to!
- It focuses on tuning you up, and achieving a state of being as well as teaching you specific techniques, so it's very "holistic" in nature.
What's the difference between the book and the program?:
The book alone is available in either downloadable pdf format, or as an actual paperback. The program is simply the book (either pdf ebook or paperback) combined with the Quickbooks company file and the bonuses and additional program material. (company manual, estimate forms, hosting, web builder, etc. - complete list is further below)
Ken,
My association with you has tripled my business and moved me ahead at LEAST 3 years from where I'd be if I did it all alone. Using the techniques in your program have definitely saved me time, frustration AND MONEY! Thank you!

I Walk the Walk
My lawn care business operation is a 2 man operation with several sub contractors in place.I make PLENTY of money and I only work until noon 3-4 days per week. I haven't worked a weekend in 5 years, AND we live and work in Maine, where we have the shortest season of almost any state. In addition, my only employee is the highest paid lawn-care employee in our town--he works 40 hours per week while I work--on average--less than 20. My "benefit to owner" pay is approx. $47,000 per year as follows:
My "Paycheck"
- My "Paycheck"s of $34,000
- SIMPLE company contribution of $1,050 (3% of total wages)
- Office and garage rent paid to us by my business of $3,600
- One vehicle (my lawn care truck) $3,000 conservative (details later)
- Partial phone and internet subsidy $600
- Health insurance deduction $1,324 (28% tax bracket x gross insurance amt.)

TOTAL $46,574.74 - $48,574.74
I'll do my best to MOVE AND INSPIRE you to make DOUBLE what your competitors make
I make an average of $60 PER MAN PER HOUR which is nearly DOUBLE what most other contractors make in this area. In fact, I make an average of $80 per man hour on spring and fall cleanups and $70 on basic maintenance, AND my overall prices are either the same or only slightly higher than my competition. I increased my hourly rate from $25 to $60 in ONE WEEK, and it was the most life changing, liberating experience of my career!
