RICHFIELD, Ohio – Five landscape contractors and lawn care operators who responded to a recent survey from Lawn & Landscape have won $150 each.
The five men responded to the 2010 Benchmarking Your Business survey that supplements Lawn & Landscape’s annual report.
The winners are:
- Tim Johnson, Johnson Landscape Co., Crows Landing, Calif.
- Jay Donelan, Greenshore Lawn Care, Shorewood, Wis.
- Norman Drevitch, Norm’s Landscaping, Staten Island, N.Y.
- Mark Brause, On the Mark Enterprises LTD, Kansas, Ohio
- Javier Lesaca, Lesaca Landscape Company, Bakersfield, Calif.
The annual Benchmarking Your Business Report, sponsored by John Deere, gets into the minutiae of your P&L statements. How much do you spend on labor for lawn care technicians? How have your material costs changed since last year? What do you spend on gas? And – more importantly – what does everyone else in your region spend?
