18 Month Update with Mitch from Jim's Mowing (Income/Profit)

Eighteen months into his Jim's Mowing franchise, Mitchell Dennis was pulling $5,000 weeks through spring, about $1,000 a day. Mitchell left a trade as a technician, found Jim's Mowing on Seek, and started with just 22 regular clients. Today he runs a round in the low 70s across the hilly, big-block suburbs around Belgrave, and he is hiring casual help to get through his next spring. In this episode he is straight about the numbers. What a real spring looks like, why his costs ran to more than half his revenue the year he bought a car and upgraded gear, and how the 6% fee figure Jim quotes matched his own end-of-year books. He covers late payers and deposits, upselling hedging and cleanups without a hard sell, call transfers that convert, and the family flexibility that let his wife stay off full-time work after they had their son.
