My Story
Lawn Care Entrepreneur, Business Coach, Digital Marketer
My name Mark Carter from Oklahoma City, OK. I worked in lawn care as a side gig for almost 10 years. When forced to leave my 9 - 5 during COVID, almost completely without notice, I decided to formalize the lawn care business into what is now PATRIOT OUTDOORS. After meeting so many men that leave their full-time job and struggle to properly set up their lawn care business from the outset, and after watching them struggle to find good-paying clients, I felt compelled to intervene, and create a solution so that you can build your lawn care business and finally enjoy the financial freedom and control over your life. Now you can finally focus on being a man of influence over your family, your loved ones and the people you will soon employ.
