So, what exactly are the lawn care skills that you will learn with us? Let's take a look!
Our lawn care training course will teach you the following lawn care and business skills:
- Lawn treatments (such as scarification, top dressing and aeration)
- Understanding lawn care cycles and principles
- Managing and using the necessary equipment
- How to market your business
- Pricing and preparing lawn care programmes
Lawn Treatments
Knowing how and when to treat a lawn is probably the most important skill for a lawn care specialist - this is the main reason why potential customers will reach out to you! If they suspect that their lawn is in dire need of attention, you will be required to assess its condition and propose the right treatment in order to restore the lawn's health. Therefore, while you train with us, we will teach you not only how to effectively perform lawn care treatments such as top dressing, weed control, aeration and spiking, but when they will be required and the signs that you will need to look out for.
Cycles & Principles
Certain lawn care treatments are required at specific times in the year - like weed control, for example. Certain weeds sprout at particular periods throughout the year, so you will need to have a good understanding of when these points are and what actions to take when they come around. We will teach you all about general lawn care cycles and how you will need to tend lawns throughout the different seasons to ensure they are in tip-top condition and as healthy as possible.
The Equipment
As with any other profession, lawn care comes with its very own specialised tools that are needed to carry out particular treatments. Whilst learning with us, you will learn how to properly manage and use your equipment to not only ensure they are effective when used, but that they will last a long time and will not need to be replaced as a result of incorrect use.
Pricing & Preparing Programmes
The love that you have for lawn care is one of the reasons why you would start your own business, but the potential to earn a lot of money in the process is another. The ability to properly price up your lawn care programmes is key to maximising your earning potential, which is why we ensure that you are able to do so before the end of our training course. By being able to competitively price your lawn care programmes will ensure your customers keep you in mind instead of choosing any competitors
Marketing
It's all well and good being the best lawn care professional around, but what use are those skills if nobody knows about them? As well as industry-specific skills, we will also teach you general business skills such as marketing that enable you to put yourself as well as your business in front of the people who need your service. This way you'll be able to gain a loyal customer base that will propel you to bigger and better places within the lawn care industry.
