After quitting my job last week it seemed obvious to me that continuing to place myself into entry level worker bee positions in industries that I have no interest being in is a terrible investment of my time. I'll never be happy or successful working for someone else, but I might find happiness working to meet my own goals and finding my own success. It's time for me to begin building my business.
After a day or two of soul searching I settled on a home yard care service. I'm an expert in the field already so 'it's an obvious choice for my first business. Checking out the competition online, the local lawn care services put a negligible amount of energy into their website. They likely don't have the knowledge or skill to utilize the web to their advantage, but I do and Elevation Yard Care will be different.
Here is one local competitior
And another
Both sites are grossly over-informational and Brunner divulges too much about their prices but in all reality it probably doesn't matter because these companies aren't trying to send traffic to their website. They don't realize that in the digital age, your website is the face of your business when it has no physical location (or even when it does)
Here is my work in progress
It's got a long way to go but I'm still learning how to use Wordpress and by no means am I expecting a polished product right away but the website is already looking professional-ish and I've got a clear vision for the final product I need to get this business off the ground.
