Depending on where you are in the world, spring of 2023 is right around the corner. Right now is perfect time to consider launching a business. All it takes is a little bit of planning, and an investment of some sort.
Lawn mowing, yard services, junk removal, and filming are all great business ideas you can run with. Each business has their own set of pros and cons.
If you’re interested in learning more about these businesses, then read on. We’ll give you a brief rundown on what each business entails, as well as the pros and cons of each.
1. Lawn Mowing
Lawn mowing is a great business to start because springtime is when homeowners and businesses pay the most attention to their lawns. Many people and business owners hire others to mow their lawns because it’s just one of those things that need or should be done.
What You’ll Need
- Lawn mower
- Vehicle to transport lawn mower
Remember, you’re only starting and running a lawn mowing business. You are not providing any other service, only lawn mowing services. However, it is advisable that you invest in a high quality mower.
The Pros & Cons
It doesn’t cost that much money to get things going. The only major downside to running a lawn mowing business is you have to do a good job. If you do an utterly horrible job on someone’s lawn, then word may spread very quickly. You could end up struggling to land clients if that happens.
2. Yard Services
Once again, spring is the time people pay a lot of attention to their yards. You can offer general yard services that include lawn mowing, hedging, weed removal and the list goes on.
What You’ll Need
What you’ll need all depends on what yard services you decide to offer. A lawn mower might be something, as well as basic yard tools such as a rake, weed wacker, hedging tools etc. . . .
The Pros & Cons
The main con is launching a yard service business might be expensive. The biggest pro is you can charge more for providing yard services than you could if you were only offering lawn mowing services.
3. Junk Removal
Springtime is the time of year people do a spring clean. This involves removing junk from their house. Many people prefer to hire a junk removal company to tackle this task, and this is where you can come in.
What You’ll Need
For a junk removal business you’ll need a truck big enough to load up junk onto. You might need equipment to assist you in moving heavy items, such as a jack or a dolly to move appliances. Think about what you would need if you were going to remove junk from your own property, and then invest in those items.
The Pros & Cons
Like a yard service business, there might be a large upfront cost involved with starting a junk removal business. However, the profit potential is enormous for junk removal companies.
4. A Filming Business
We have noticed there are more and more people who are launching all sorts of channels online. Be it a YouTube channel, TikTok channel or a Facebook Reels channel. As spring rolls around, you can launch your own video filming services.
What You’ll Need
You’ll need a decent camera and a clevering marketing plan. You’ll also need a vehicle or access to public transportation if you plan on travelling to meet with clients.
The Pros & Cons
If you don’t have any filming experience, then you might struggle to land clients. On the plus side, you can offer your filming services to anyone who wants to start a video channel on any platform. You can even reach out to established creators to let them know you’re available in the event their regular person who films isn’t available.
Keep This In Mind
Bear in mind that no matter what business you decide to start, you’ll likely need to get a business permit. Don’t forget to check local laws and regulations to see if any of them apply to you. And you’ll need to keep records of profits/losses for tax purposes.
Final Thoughts
If you’re ready to start a business in 2023, then consider any of the above. Who knows, one of them could really take off for you. If you really hustle, you might be inspired to branch out a bit more and take your new business as far as possible.
