In Episode 69, we sit down with Derick Rose, owner of Catspaw LLC, to break down how he started a lawn care business in 2020 during COVID with nothing more than a push mower — and grew it into a year-round commercial lawn and snow operation in Wisconsin.

Derick shares how focusing on commercial accounts, adding snow removal, and building systems for all four seasons helped stabilize income and scale beyond seasonal lawn work in a cold-weather market.

We cover:
 • Starting a lawn business during COVID
 • Landing commercial lawn contracts early
 • Transitioning from residential to commercial work
 • Snow removal as a winter income strategy
 • Building a year-round lawn & snow business
 • Lessons learned growing from the ground up

If you’re in a northern state, running snow, or trying to turn your lawn business into a year-round operation, this episode delivers real insight from someone who’s done it.

This episode marks five years of the Mow Trappin Podcast — and it’s not about going viral, it’s about staying in the game.

In Episode 68, I break down what five years of consistency really looks like while building a lawn care business, a media brand, and a life that most people quit on before it starts working.

We talk about:

• The invisible years nobody posts about

• Why most people fail before momentum kicks in

• What it takes to keep pushing when results are slow

• How lawn care turned into a long-term platform

• And what moving forward really means after five years

This is a real conversation about discipline, pressure, and not folding when the vision hasn’t paid yet.

If you’re building something — a business, a brand, or a future — this episode is for you.
