For anyone new to the landscape or lawn care business or thinking
of starting such a business, the two-day Business Skills Workshop
Oct. 6-7 in Griffin, Ga., can be a blessing.
The workshop, in the Stuckey Building on the Griffin campus of
the University of Georgia, will be taught by UGA faculty and
landscape experts. It will cover the nuts and bolts of starting a
business.
Sessions will include developing a business plan, guidelines for
selecting equipment, managing employees, laws and regulations,
ways to avoid legal headaches, cost estimating, job bidding and
troubleshooting landscape problems.
Trade association representatives will be there, too, to provide
information and answer questions.
