Many kids hung out with friends and family over the summer, but Marcus and his siblings did something different. They started their own yard care business, 3 Amigos Lawncare Service, with help from their mom, Terri Reed. It’s been a real hit.
Marcus, the oldest, said he wanted to start a business, which is where the idea came from. Terri saw a chance and acted quickly, buying the tools and clothes she would need for the job. Three Friends was born right then.
After a few months, the brothers have gained over 40 loyal customers. They do a lot of different things, from mowing and weeding to edging and cleanup. Because they worked hard and didn’t give up, they now have enough money to buy a house.
Terri is very happy because she is a proud mom and runs her own business. She told them, “I’m very proud of them.” “They’re hard-working young boys who have a vision and a passion for business.”
As the seasons change, the brothers plan to add snow removal to their list of services. This will keep their business going strong all year. With their weekly pay cheques and business accounts, they’re learning a lot about money and running a business.
The story of the 3 Amigos shows how important it is to think outside the box, work hard, and have family support. What will happen next for these young business owners?
