Abstract/Contents: | States that many landscape maintanence contractors work in the residential market. Suggests variables a contractor should consider before entering the residential market including, "is the contractor equipped to provide the other maintenance services a commercial client will expect besides mowing." States that "another variable is whether a contractor has the personnel to meet the demands of servicing commercial clients." Notes that "often the biggest challenge in adding commercial mowing is gaining those first few clients." States that "the most common mistake contractors make when taking on commercial mowing accounts is not accounting for overhead expenses that come with the equipment necessary to service the client." |
