How Two High School Friends Started a Million-Dollar Lawn Mowing Business

In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Gary Bredow tells the story of Skye Durrant and Brandon Bertrang, two high school friends who mowed lawns together for money. In fact, Bertrang even paid for college with the profits from his mowing work.

The two friends have since moved west and received over $1 million in funding while trying to make their vision a reality.
