- "We don't cut corners, we trim them"

- Averaged $20,000 in revenue each year since 2023

- Over 30 active clients

- Providing regular lawn care maintenance & a variety of other services

- Created with myself and 3 friends in 2022

- Managing employee hours and pay
Creating an innovative pay structure and hourly rate that gives employees a sense of value and fair compensation. While also having an implemented distribution for every dollar that enters the company.

- Making schedules with clients
After acquiring clients I have been able to successfully communicate via email, call, and text with clients to establish a schedule that works for them and whatever service they desire.
- Managing and accounting for company finances. I have been successful in creating a spreadsheet that holds all revenue and expenses for each client and service after they have been performed. Additionally, I created a balance sheet that details all of our assets and liabilities for the business.

- Allocating new clients
Acquiring clients has been a key part of my role, whether it be door-knocking, ad campaigns, or yard signs. These methods have helped us to stay busy at all times of the year, not just in the busy season.

- Tailoring social media pages to obtain new clients
Creating a Facebook and Instagram page that has been able to show off our work and persuade potential clients to use us for their landscaping needs.

- Assistant coach to a 2013 competitive boys team
- Communicated with players and parents regarding schedule
- Coaching practices and games every week

- Sold over 200 pairs of coveted sneakers (Nike, Adidas, & Designer)
- Sold one pair of sneakers for over $1,000
- Marketed and sold sneakers through eBay, Instagram, Poshmark, & Depop
- Created the business after COVID in order to make money online

- Identified profitable sneakers
I would find sneakers that had high resell value then source them through websites and stores that sold them upon release day. I would analyze market trends and customer sentiment in order to gauge if a sneaker would be a buy or a sell.

- Quality Customer Service
I shipped every single one of my sneakers either same day or the next day, this was something that was hard to come by at the time on eBay and other sites at the time. Additonally, I was able to maintain a almost perfect customer feedback section with 98% positive feedback

- Creating Engaging Social Media Posts
After acquiring the pair of sneakers, I would post engaging content on my social media pages that enticed customers to buy my shoes from either eBay or directly through me. Getting customers to buy directly through me was my main goal as I could eliminate a lot of costs and taxes.
