Excellent well balanced bookNov 23, 2005
By David Koenig
"LawnHocker"
This book was very well written with good balance between general business advice and more specific landscaping advice. I like that he does not mind going out on a limb to recommend specific brands and types of commercial lawn care equipment. He also includes a very handy CD filled with all sorts of sheets that can b personalized to your individual use. This book should become the authoritative guide to those looking to enter the business.

LandscapingFeb 02, 2007
By Rodrigo Bermudez
Very good book on business side, not much information about landscaping itself. Very detailled information about opening a business. Costs, overhead costs, and initial capital.

 CD-ROM doesn't work if you have a MACMay 09, 2012
By tuckman
Well, the book really is helpful though the main reason I bought this was for everything that is on the CD. SO this has proven to be useless to me. They need to be more specific about compatibility, it is a 2005 product.
