If You Love Gardening, Then Here’s How You Could Turn
it into £100–£1,000 Per Week Extra Income!
Richard
Allen has been growing and selling plants very successfully
in his family run business for over 20 years. Recently he
realised there was a huge opportunity for amateur gardeners
to take their hobby and turn it into a profitable and enjoyable
business. He’s now published a great ebook (with plenty
of exciting add-ons) and I am more than happy to give it a
glowing review in these pages.
You
see, I think Richard is onto something here.
Gardening
in the UK is a £5bn
a year industry. Thanks to social-economic changes such as
an increase in home ownership, higher disposable incomes and
an ageing population, gardening is a huge and growing market.
And surely with the recession biting, people will be attracted
to simpler and cheaper pursuits like gardening.
I
checked Amazon and did some research. There really is very
little information on how serious hobbyists could start their
own horticultural business. So Richard saw the gap and went
for it. And I think he has done a cracking job.
The
marketing promotion (http://www.makemoneygrowingplants.co.uk)
is extremely well put together, but without any of the usual
hype. It’s honest, straightforward and clearly states
what’s on offer. Richard has all the credentials and
definitely knows what he’s talking about.
The
earnings claims are realistic – Richard suggests you
could make a £100
weekly side income from just three or four hours a week all
the way up to £1,000
a week from a full time operation. Through the manual he gives
the essential advice you need for choosing, buying and growing
plants plus specific strategies for selling plants to both
the public and trade.
OK,
by the very nature of the subject, there’s no way Richard
can cover every aspect of the actual cultivation process.
And if you are a complete newbie (like me), I suspect you
will need to partner with someone who already has ‘green
fingers’. But what makes this ebook so strong for me,
is how Richard devotes most time to the commercial side of
things. He shows how you can sell plants from home, at car
boot sales, farmers’ markets and craft and plant fairs.
He even shows how you could joint venture with your local
garden centre or sell direct to the public via eBay!
To
really get this business started, you’re going to need
land – a minimum of 20ft by 20ft that could be devoted
to growing your plants. You will also need transport including
a trailer to move your plants around, although you could certainly
hire that in the beginning.
Yes,
it is possible to grow and sell all your own plants and spend
no money, but it could take up to two years before you see
a profit. Richard solves this by showing you how you could
take an initial £200 investment and turn it into £1,000
then £5,000, just through buying and selling plants.
More
than the money, this is very much a lifestyle business. Although
I’m no gardener and lead a hectic urban lifestyle, the
gardeners I know are invariably relaxed, stress-free and do
something that is physically and intellectually challenging
as well as emotionally rewarding.
This
opportunity is perfect for any keen gardener, retirees, stay
at home mums (and dads) and even the whole family.
Oh,
and Richard also throws in an extra blueprint on a grass cutting
business which in itself could be a great stand alone part-time
money-spinner! Plus you get six months worth of free email
consultation, an interview CD, free ebook updates for a year
and monthly email updates.
And
for just £27, this is a bargain – especially when
you consider there is nothing like this available.
Bottom
Line: A great introduction for keen gardeners to turn their
hobby into a profitable plant selling business.
