Limited Exposure to Recession

Lawn care is a small slice of the consumer’s disposable income and one of the last budget items to be cut when belt-tightening is necessary. While nothing is recession-proof, many of our companies have flourished during recessions. Also shielding lawn care from exposure to recession is its high perceived value as a low-cost service that enhances both property value and pride of ownership. In fact, studies have shown that professional lawn and landscape services can add as much as 15% to a home’s value at resale.

Plus, you’ll have the peace of mind of knowing that a well-run lawn care company can count on the vast majority of its customers automatically renewing each year. This brings in recurring revenues and allows thecompany to focus marketing efforts on net growth rather than repeat sales. As a Weed Man franchisee, you’ll always be building on a growing database of renewing customers, creating equity and amassing wealth in the process.
