New Spring-Green Lawn Care Franchise Owners Off to a Positive Start

Share this post:

What’s it like being a Spring-Green franchise owner? The best way to find out is to ask one. Many of our franchise owners have been in the franchise system for 10, 15 or even more years, but we also have a great crop of newer owners who are experiencing their first or second seasons this year. We recently talked with two of our newest lawn care franchise owners: Alex Abbott in Richmond, Virginia and Tony Schmidt, owner of Spring-Green lawn care business in Madison, Indiana .

A Successful Season for Madison, IN Lawn Care Franchise

Spring is the most important season in the lawn care business. As the weather warms and weeds begin to germinate, people look for a professional lawn care service to care for their lawn and landscape. Tony Schmidt is going through his first lawn care season this spring and staying very busy.
“I’m learning a lot and excited about all the new business that’s coming in.” said Schmidt. “One customer has already told me that her yard looked better after just one application than it had in three years.”
The first season is critical to success for a Spring-Green franchise owner. Our initial franchise support is dedicated to keeping a new franchise owner’s priorities in order and prepared. Our industry leading business and marketing intelligence helps us to create a relevant marketing campaign for the local market to maximize sales opportunities. Tony went on to say,
“I’m learning a lot and working on being more organized, but overall it’s been a very positive first season.”

A Profitable Second Year for a VA Spring-Green Franchise

Alex Abbott is also dealing with a rush of new leads and sales in his second year providing lawn care in Richmond, VA.
“I’m still learning, but I feel much more in control and know what to expect now that I’m in my second year”, said Abbott. “An early spring in Virginia created an early sales rush and weed pressure, which I now have under control. Yards are turning around quicker because of the nice weather and looking awesome.”
As a second year franchise owner, Alex has been able to take advantage of Spring-Green’s marketing reinvestment program where up to $10,000 is applied to the 2nd year marketing programs. All of our franchise owners are working hard this spring and accommodating the unexpected early spring across most of the country. 2012 is off to a very positive start at Spring-Green Lawn Care and we expect to build on that early momentum with a record breaking sales season.
