Name one landscaping company that mows by the acre that exclusively only offers mowing as their service. You will not survive as a company on a few easy clients with flat acres of grass that they want mowed.
Even your most basic landscaping companies will offer soil aeration. Seeding. Laying sod. Soil grading.debris removal. weed eating. Plant and tree installation and de-thatching in addition to your basic lawn cutting. And that is just the basic stuff to get your name out there. If you can't satisfy 100% of your customers needs then you will lose 100% of the job. This isn't an industry like contracting, where it's more profitable to subcontract out parts of a job to specialists like drywall, roofing, electrical and painting.
Not only that but you will need to be able to mow a whole manner of terrain using specialized, professional equipment that costs a shitton of money (slope mowers and shit).
>Paid once, and should last for multiple years with minor maintenance. What the fuck are you talking about? To acquire that much equipment, trucks capable of taking that equipment to the job site and warehousing space to store all of it is going to total in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. It's going to cost you an arm and a leg to pay off the loans you took out to afford it all to begin with. It will be years before you're in the black on that expense.
Not only that but This shits going to break on you 6 months in when someone fucks it up. you will almost always have to be driving out to pick something up from the shop or dropping something off.
Even the best companies will suffer from horrible employee turnaround,which leads to more equipment getting fucked up. You can make money here, but it's honest money. Not fast money.
