MATTHEW – JIM’S MOWING (GREENACRES)

What did you do before joining jim’s?

I worked as a social worker.

What frustrated you about your previous employment?

I did enjoy my profession, but it was just time to move on. There were some restrictions within the job, which I felt did not allow for personal development.

Why did you end up joining Jim’s over other things you were considering?

I chose Jim’s because I was entering into a new faze and area of my life, and the Jim’s system offered excellent training and ongoing support, while allowing me the independence of still being my own boss and developing my business to my own requirements.

What do you like best about Jim’s Mowing?

The responsibility of having my own business, and the associated independence of being in charge of my own life.

Jim’s offers me contact with everyday people and I can be of help and assistance to them, in a way, not dissimilar to my former job. I have some clients that I can choose to do those extra little things for, like my elderly clients, which makes me, and them feel good. Being outdoors is a bonus, and not having to wear a suit. Achieving an increase of approx. 30 new clients in my first three months, was both a personal and business achievement, of which I am proud of.

    Previous Job: Registered General Nurse

    Lifestyle, lifestyle, lifestyle. No weekends, no shift work, no stress, fewer deadlines…. and no politics. And my wife can do what she wants to do and concentrate on being a mother and raising our two boys, keeping our home and supporting me and the business.

  • STEVE (HINDMARSH)

    Previous Job: Dealer, Adelaide Casino

    I actually find it more fun than challenging. When I try something and it works, I know I've made everything that bit easier and/or more $$. I've also split my round 5 times in 5 years for a total of $90k extra income. I never miss a rock concert or birthday party, and there's never a moment at work when I wish I was at home.


  • DARREN (KIDMAN PARK)

    Previous Job: Retail - Storeman and a Salesman

    Since I bought my Mowing round, I have lost count of the number of times I have been told by family and friends how happy and relaxed I look. I knew I wasn't happy where my work life was heading beforehand, but I never realised how visible it was also to everyone else. The support we got from Gerry, Shane & Rets our Franchisors was vitally important to a smooth transition and has been on-going, only a phone call away or by email. We were impressed from the very first initial meeting.

  • GRANT (PT AUGUSTA)

    Previously Job: Security Officer at Olympic Dam

    The professionalism of the Jim's Group very much impressed us. People trust and respect the Jim's name, and that has helped us to grow our business very quickly. The help and support has been terrific!

  • Tristan (Hackam)

    Well after 2 months i grew from 80 to 105 odd clients, I did my first split after 8 months, I have landed a 1mth trial with a retirement home that I was doing some lawns for as the caretaker of all gardens which will let my wife leave her job.


  • ANDY (BRIGHTON)

    Previous Job: International Tour Guide

    Being my own boss is fantastic, I have more time with my family and set up my hours around our needs. The franchisors are only a phone call away, if I ever have any questions or need anything. I now make double the money in half the hours which means more time with my family.
