@Codie_Sanchez What’s the typical multiple you’re seeing in full service lawn and landscaping businesses operating for over ten years with revenue under $1million with 30%+ profit?
Everyone wants to be the best. But almost no one is willing to do what it takes. It’s not that it’s hard, it’s that it’s boring.
Boring constant monotonous work is what leads to greatness.
Introducing Claude Fable 5: a Mythos-class model that we’ve made safe for general use.
Its capabilities exceed those of any model we’ve ever made generally available.
RFK Jr. tells Theo Von about the Monsanto trial, where an EPA official was caught asking for a “gold medal” to kill a study that showed Roundup caused cancer.
The jury was so angry, they awarded the plaintiffs more money than they asked for.
It all started when a married couple of home gardeners were both diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma at the same time. Their Labrador retriever got it, too. The dog died.
RFK Jr. asked the jury for $1 billion.
Then he showed them the emails…
RFK JR: “We asked the jury for a billion dollars. They gave us 2.2 billion.”
“And they did that because we were able to show them documents that showed Monsanto knew of the danger and then worked with corrupt officials — a guy called Jess Rowland inside of EPA, who was the head of the pesticide division.”
“They had deliberately concealed the science, fixed the science. And now the big study that they used to prove safety has been retracted.”
THEO: “They’d found emails that it was kind of ghostwritten or something?”
RFK JR: “The head of the pesticide division — Monsanto asked him secretly, and now we have these emails — to kill a study by another agency called ATSDR.”
“And he said, ‘I can’t kill it. That’s not my agency. I can kill them in EPA, but not outside.’”
“And they said, ‘You got to do it. We can’t have this study go forward.’ And he said, ‘Okay, I’m going to do it, but if I succeed, you got to give me a gold medal.’”
THEO VON: “A gold medal in what? Just anything?”
RFK JR: “A gold medal for killing a study that showed that it caused cancer.”
THEO VON: “That’s insane! It’s at a contest level now. Things like that are so prolific that now there are awards for it. It seems baffling.”
How i look at the business with no marketing budget, recurring profits for 3+ years, and a website that hasn't been updated since Obama's first term...
I don’t get into politics online but I saw this poll just got posted an hour ago and it’s going viral. I actually don’t follow this account but it’s interesting to see how others feel sometimes.
As the owner of a landscaping business for the past 20 years - Regardless of what the bag says, never trust Miracle Gro soil or pretty much any other soil that comes in a plastic bag from far away.
If you’re a gardener check your soil before dumping it into your garden
A brand new sealed bag of Miracle Gro All Purpose Garden Soil is opened to find multiple Hammerhead worms
If you don’t know what Hammerhead worms are, just one can completely destroy your garden
Here’s how
They eat beneficial earthworms
Earthworms are vital “ecosystem engineers.” They aerate soil, improve drainage, break down organic matter, and cycle nutrients that plants need.
Hammerhead worms hunt and consume earthworms. A single hammerhead can significantly reduce local earthworm populations. This leads to compacted, less fertile soil
They Disrupt Soil Health by depleting earthworms and other beneficial invertebrates, they harm the overall soil food web
They reproduce and can regenerate from small body fragments. Cutting them in half can create more worms
🚨 HOUSE DROPS A MASSIVE AMERICA-FIRST BOMBSHELL!
US House just PASSED the amendment to the Farm Bill BANNING China, Russia, Iran & other foreign adversaries from buying American farmland.
Over 45 million acres already in enemy hands, NO MORE.
Rep. Steube: “It makes zero sense to let our enemies own AMERICAN land.”
Common sense is BACK. Protecting our soil, our food, our future
The farm bill passed and they actually stripped the protections for the chemical companies. So states can still hold them accountable for things like glyphosate.
This is exactly what I’m working on for my local landscaping and lawn care business. Every so often an opportunity arises and creates an opening for new companies to break into big markets. I did it for myself over ten years ago with Google and Facebook. Now the opportunity is with leveraging AI and also creating shorts for local audiences. Not worrying about how many views each one gets the day you post it but paying those bread crumbs with the proper landing pages to build the audience. Local newsletters are also a game changer for local service companies who are already getting 100s of emails through online requests.
