Hi guys, JC here from Lawn Squad Mowing, and in today's video, I want to talk about how to legitimize a part-time mowing business.
This is particularly true for you guys just starting out, but hopefully these tips help, and show you how to legitimize a part-time mowing business to get more customers.
There are a few things you can do overall, but I want to highlight some key things you can do early on to start being more legitimate (and, by default, looking more professional to potential clients).
Go to the IRS website, and apply for an Employee Identification Number (EIN), so you can properly file your taxes
Go to your local town or city hall, and register your new business information so you can be a certified business
Apply for a business bank account, to keep it separate from your personal bank account and avoid potential pitfalls with invoicing, savings, revenue, etc.
Look at getting limited liability insurance, which helps you stay protected when it comes to potential damage you might cause at a customer's job site
I hope this helps, guys, and let me know what you do to legitimize your part-time mowing business.
