Mike Andes visited Alex Hormozi at acquisition.com to get advice on scaling Augusta Lawn Care from 140 locations toward 1,000. Hormozi said the key is franchise unit economics: if each owner makes $200,000 annual profit, selling 1,000 franchises becomes easy.

I went out to Las Vegas to acquisition.com's headquarters. I was with Alex Hormozi, and I was introduced to him from my friend and coach, Dr. Trevor Cashe. Dr. Kashi allowed me to be able to have the opportunity to ask Alex a couple questions about my business. And so Augusta Lawn Care, we've had growth over the past several years, and ultimately, I believe we need a thousand locations in order to be able to have the impact I want on the industry. Currently, we're 170. At that time, we were at 130, 140. And so I asked, what do we need to do to get to the next level? What do we need to do to really scale this? He really zeroed in on the unit economics of the franchise, trying to get it to where every single owner is able to make $800,000 in annual revenue and a $200,000 net profit. And he said, hey, if you can make it where the average franchisee makes $200,000 in annual profits, you'll sell 1,000 of these, no problems.
