GMB how to get listed as a mobile business
Hi, My name is Deanna and I am a sole owner/operater for Pawsitive Lawns LLC. I am starting a dog waste removal business with the intentions of growing and expanding into lawncare and landscaping and other services. I am in the beginning stages of operating a new business. I am starting small, as I have limited capital right now and using personal funds, but I got rejected from listing my business on google my business because of my physical location is my house, but I will be traveling to residential and commercial locations, not having people come to my location. Does anyone know how to get a mobile service listed correctly so I can be "googled" in my service area? Thank you in advance for any and all help. I truly appreciate being part of this community!3Views0likes0CommentsDo you utilize battery-powered tools?
Handheld battery-powered tools have come a long way from their first iterations, especially over the past few years. I've started making the switch away from gas-powered equipment throughout the last few seasons for my business and have found the switch to be positive for my workflow and bottom line. This is a trend I believe will continue as batteries become more powerful and long-lasting. Are you utilizing any battery-powered equipment and, if so, do you have any favorites you'd like to share??757Views3likes11CommentsBest way to gain more clients?

I am looking to start a new side business in lawn care. I may have one or two people to work with me full time so that I can keep my full time job until this thing takes off.

I have been doing my office's annual purge and came across some old invoices from the earliest power equipment my business purchased. Believe it or not, some of the equipment I use has doubled in price for the replacement model at today's cost. Since it is our responsibility as owners to be profitable enough to replace/repair equipment as needed, I find myself adjusting my equipment cost recovery number upward almost monthly in my budget. How often are you adjusting your cost recovery upward to adjust for the ongoing inflation?201Views2likes2Comments
