I would like to start a lawn care business from the bottom. What equipment will I need? What will startup costs be? What are some unique options for advertising? Any advice is welcome.

A couple of lawnmowers, rakes, shovels, etc. You could start with as little as $1,000. Advertising on the Weather channel can be very cheap or cheaper still locate local bulletin boards and put up flyers where people can take your phone number with them.

Get a lawnmower, knock on the door, negotiate a price, and start cutting.
If you do a great job, she will tell her neighbor.
Keep a record of your a. new customers
b. expenses
c. income
Start out simple and work your way up. You will know what to do as you go along.
