Manage episode 478283195 series 3550642
Thinking about going solo? This is the reality of leaving a franchise and building something of your own.
In this episode of Roots to Revenue, we chat with Sean from Lawn Right — a business owner who left a franchise to go independent and now uses YouTube to grow his brand.
We cover how he found his first clients, used Facebook ads to generate leads, and turned a lawn care job into a trusted local business. You’ll hear what worked, what didn’t, and the real behind-the-scenes of building a business from scratch.
If you’re ready to take control of your career, or just want to learn how content and consistency can grow a business — this one’s for you.
