Turning a Side Gig into a Full-Time Business

When Alex* first started his small landscaping company, he was just trying to keep things simple: mow lawns, lay mulch, and keep customers happy. Business was steady, but unpredictable. Some weeks were profitable. Others barely covered payroll.

Like many trade professionals, Alex found himself caught between growing demand and limited cash flow. Equipment upgrades, seasonal slowdowns, and rising costs all made it hard to plan for growth.

I knew I could expand, but I didn’t have the cash on hand to take the next step.

A Small Idea That Sparked Big Growth

One day, a client asked if he could pressure wash their driveway after finishing the yard. It took 30 minutes — and earned extra revenue. Word spread quickly. Soon, more clients were asking for pressure washing. The only catch? Alex needed commercial-grade equipment to keep up. That’s when he turned to Kraftworks Business Financing for help.

How Smart Financing Turned Momentum into Growth

Through Kraftworks, Alex gained quick access to flexible working capital to purchase a pressure washer, trailer, and extra supplies without the long paperwork or delays typical of traditional banks.

That small investment made a big difference:

• Revenue increased within months as pressure washing took off.
• New clients booked directly for driveways, decks, and siding.
• Cash flow stabilized, allowing him to hire part-time help and plan for the next season.

Before, I was turning away jobs because I couldn’t afford the equipment, now, I can take on more clients and plan ahead — not just survive week to week.
