Choose a name that suggests a good feeling about your work. Don’t be afraid to charge more for good work. What worked for me very well was offering to fix drainage problems. Everybody has bad drainage problems, some more than others.
Don’t limit yourself. You are the expert in vistas, screening, views from all windows, drainage, sprinkling, decks, pavements, firepits, lighting, pools and fountains, ponds with remote deck and shelter, etc. Good luck.
Well …Justin…How about “Just In Time” Landscaping & Maintenance..Makes me want to call you already!
how about calling your company …..TRUNK SLAMMER LANDSCAPE ? that way everyone Will know that you are non licensed ,and robing the legitimate ,tax paying companies ,that have expenses to pay ,to keep their non mexican illegal alien company alive ,thus supporting hard working american families.
