Start local and keep it simple. Make a list of HOAs, apartment complexes, offices, retail centers, and property managers, then reach out directly and offer a free site visit and quote.
Have your insurance, business license, references/photos of your work, service agreement, and pricing ready. Highlight that you can handle mowing, cleanups, mulch, snow removal, and salting so they can use one reliable company year-round.
Most importantly, start with smaller commercial properties, cold call/email property managers, visit properties in person, network with other contractors, and ask your current customers for referrals. Your first few accounts will help build the portfolio you need to land bigger contracts.
