Short YouTube clip (Mike Andes) discussing that a weed-and-fertilizing-only business can be highly profitable. He cites a franchise that opened a second location which offers only weed control and fertilizer treatment packages (no mowing/landscaping) and is performing very well in that area.
What are your thoughts on a weed and fertilizing business? I love it. Very high margin. Depending on your area you get very profitable. We have one of our franchise locations. They actually started our second location and only thing they're doing with our second location is weed control of fertilizer treatment packages, etc. They're not doing any mowing, any landscaping and that's their second Augusta lawn care location and that's all they're doing. And in their area they crush it.
