There’s something to be said for working with your hands and being out in the fresh air. There’s no better way to do that and still maintain your entrepreneurial status than to start a landscaping business. This business is very viable for those who want to be a one-person show. Cutting grass, designing a landscape, and planting area appropriate flowers can be priced based upon the local material rate and your own labor cost. Getting the first customer is possibly the most difficult part, but using your own lawn as a springboard for marketing materials and word of mouth is a good way to start.
