How To Start a Small Engine Repair Business

Did you ever just want to earn some extra money working on small engines and provide a little more security for yourself or your family? Or are you tired of working for someone else and being the slave to their business for 40 or more hours a week making them a lot of money while you just get by? And if you don’t perform well, they can just fire you and hire another person to take your place.

With the added security that a small engine repair business brings to you, it can be something that you start out of your garage and working at a couple hours a night and on weekends. As your business grows, it could become large enough to pay your bills and let you get away from that nagging 9-5 job that you hate going to each day.

In my case it was different. I had sold a business of 20 years and suddenly had nothing to do. I am not one to sit around and do nothing so I decided to start doing small engine repair. My background had some mechanic experience in it but not any small engine repair such as lawn mowers and generators both of which are my two most popular machines to work on in my state.

So needless to say I had a big learning curve staring me in the face and I needed to get up to speed on everything as quick as I could. My business background helped immediately with the operations, marketing and sales sides of things and this is by far the most important part of the business. Get your copy at How To Start a Small Engine Repair Business.
