Starting Your Own Small Engine Business

You are either thinking about it or you are going to make it happen. One way or another you are going to quit your day job eventually or you want to make some money on the side. I can understand that because that is exactly what I wanted when starting my own small engine business.

The problem I found out was there were plenty of service manuals you could buy to help you repair things, there just weren’t any books that would teach you how to actually run this type of business and make money doing these services.

So what did I do, I wrote my own! Fortunately for me I had 20 years of experience running other businesses and I drew from that experience to put together an easy to read and follow step by step book that would help you get your small engine repair business up and running faster and making more money than you would if you had to figure it all out on your own through trial and error.

Trial and error costs you money for each mistake that you make. You can only stay in business as long as you can afford those mistakes! And make them you will but you will also learn from them. A small business is filled with problems that can easily cost you thousands if you don’t figure out a solution to them.

Most people go out and buy some tools, tell a few friends that they are starting a business and maybe hang out a sign. That is an OK way to start but you will not get near the business you could if you marketing it correctly and sold your services in the right way. Leaving money on the table is a bad thing because this can be a seasonal business as most of the work is lawn mower related. You have to make as much money as you can during the busy season to help tide you over for winter.

How to Start and Make Money in a Small Engine Repair Business” will help you get a jumpstart on your business and will show you how to get starting in the right direction. It covers setting up your business structure, insurance, sales, marketing, education and training, where to get parts, setting up your shop, accounting, taxes and one of the more important topics is what to say yes or no to.

An investment in your business start-up is one of the best investments you can make to help you avoid a catastrophe that you might not see coming. As I mentioned earlier, you can only stay in business as long as you can afford your mistakes.

When you purchase a copy of my book, you get a 6-month FREE listing on my National Referral Website at Lawn Mower Repair Service. Just look inside the front cover for how to get listed. Believe me, this will be the best $20 you spend on your new business!

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.
