Mike Andes is starting a lawn care business from scratch in North Carolina with a goal to hit $300,000. He preps with a practice mowing day and a Home Depot run, then fires an employee for poor conduct toward the team, not for breaking a window.
Literally, next week, I'm gonna be in North Carolina. I'm gonna be starting a business from scratch. From zero. No customers in an area. There's no Augusta Lawn Care. And I've got to scale it up to a $300,000 business to do that. I'm gonna be mowing a lot of grass, but I have not mowed grass in a very long time. And so, therefore, today is gonna be a warm up day. First, we have to stop at the Home Depot. Why do we have to stop at the Home Depot? Because yesterday someone broke a window. Now, they got fired, but they did not get fired for breaking the window. They got fired for the way they treated the team and their manager after breaking the window and not taking own.
