Where did this vision come from to create the Uber lawn care?
Well, so, uh, green pal is a 10 year overnight success.
My two co-founders and I have been at this for a little over a decade,
but now it's, it's nationwide in the United States.
So anywhere in the U S you can use it around 300,000 people use it every week.
And, uh, the idea, the idea we had to start it 10 years ago is the same idea we're
working on now, which is how do you make this chore as easy as pushing a button?
And the idea came from my first business, which was a landscaping company.
I had a lawn mowing business.
I ran for 15 years in Nashville, Tennessee, eventually growing it from like me and a
push mower to over a hundred employees.
And, and then it was acquired in 2012 by a big national company out of Texas.
And after that, I got, I thought I was just going to like stop working for a
while, but I got bored really quick.
And I watched the movie, the social network and they made it look super easy
to start a tech startup.
They built Facebook in like 30 or 40 minutes and it looked awesome.
And so I thought I want to be a tech entrepreneur.
And, uh, luckily I didn't know what I didn't know.
Cause I never would have started this, but I thought somebody's going to build an
app that works like Uber, but for lawn mowing.
And so that's, that's where the idea came from.
