Your Investment

Compare what you get for your investment

The investment required to purchase a Lawnscience franchise is £19,846.84+ VAT, making Lawnscience one of the lowest-cost lawn care franchises available in the UK today. This investment provides you with a protected territory, extensive initial and ongoing training, all the equipment that you will need to operate your lawn treatment business, and ongoing support for the life of your franchise. The only additional start-up cost will be either the purchase or leasing of an approved van.

Protected territory

When we create your franchise territory we want to ensure that you have the best territory in which to grow your new lawn care business. The process of territory selection begins with an analysis of the postcodes that surround your home or business base. The aim is to create a tight local territory that contains sufficient households to ensure the success of your business. Having prepared the initial territory map you are then free to amend the proposal as you will have local knowledge of your area. Normally this process goes through 3-5 iterations before we can both be happy with your new territory.

Extensive training

Your training starts immediately after you have made the decision to join our business. Whilst you will receive individual training at our Milton Keynes base, we don’t wait for that to start helping you to get to grips with the new concepts that you will need to master in order to get the maximum benefit out of your business investment.

During your pre-start classroom training, you will cover:

  • Lawn botany
  • Customer service
  • Communications
  • Operational systems

I knew that in order to take control of my income and working life, I would have to work for myself, rather than working for others. However, choosing a business to start on my own was not that simple. I was initially drawn to Lawnscience because Terry supplied me with lots of information from the start, which helped me to understand the business. Another great advantage to Lawnscience is that they gave me the opportunity to create my own bespoke trading territory, something which most franchisors could not have done. Having met with Lawnscience on several occasions to discuss their business and the way in which they operate, my mind was made up. This was always going to be a daunting decision, but I was given the opportunity to speak with all of the current franchisees about their experiences, which gave me the confidence to take the leap into self-employment. After my initial training, my marketing plan fired into action and the phone rang and rang and rang. Today, after only 7 months of trading I have already surpassed my first years sales target by over £10,000, and the year is far from over.
