Richey has been a good buddy of mine from YouTube for a long time now, and it's great to finally get him on the show to share his story and how he runs his lawn and landscaping business! Richey has a unique story with having a military background and then going into corporate America, but then shortly realizing that wasn't the ideal life or career for him! Richey threw caution to the wind and decided to go all in with a lawn care business of his own, and as the saying goes, the rest is history! www.LawntrepreneurAcademy.com Brian's Lawn Maintenance - YouTube ww.GIE-EXPO.com (50% Off Registration!)
