As many of you know, I'm planning my exit strategy from Lawn Care. However... without a spec of advertising I've picked up 5 new lawn accounts today alone. I've also have $xx,xxx lined up in spring work. I strongly believe this is due to the changes I made last year (uniforms, better customer service, etc). My questions are:
1. Do I start to turn down work because I'm too busy stuck at school? It's becoming a challenge as it currently stands.
2. Is an exit plan an ignorant decision because I'm confident that we could easily double business if we started to advertise (fully-completed website, post cards, yard signs, etc).
My personal thoughts are that I should figure out a way to take on the increased business and then use all revenue to buy assets (real estate). I HATE losing/turning down business, but I'm at a crossroads and I think I may just be running away from something good.
