Example Theme After Instruction Yard Care: A Great Way to Make a Bundle! Looking for a good job for next summer? Running a yard-care business is a really good bet. It involves hard work, but the payoff is worth the effort. On average, a teenager can make $1,000 or even as much as $5,000 per summer taking care of people’s yards. There are several activities required for making that much money. First, people and their yards must be found. Second, the right equipment must be purchased. Third, yards must be cared for on a consistent schedule. Finally, money must be collected regularly. As will be shown, following these four steps is critical to success in the yard-care business. The first step involves finding enough yards to create a real business. One way to find yards is to walk or drive around and look for yards that need some care. Once a possible yard is found, the people can be asked if they would like someone to care for it. Another way involves calling friends on the phone and asking if they need some help with their yards. A third way involves making flyers and distributing them to people’s mailboxes or doors. The flyer should contain the worker’s name, phone number, and types of work that can be done. Another way of recruiting customers is by word of mouth. This requires that a good reputation is built for the business over time, and people start talking in positive ways about it. The next step in running a yard-care business after finding some customers involves acquiring the right equipment. This is something that must be done over a long period of time because as the business starts up, the yard keeper has very little or no money. At first, an inexpensive lawn mower with a bag for catching grass clippings is needed. Sometimes, people can borrow their parents’ or a friend’s lawn mower to get started. Later, once some money is earned, a more expensive and substantial lawn mower can be purchased along with rakes, weed eaters, edge trimmers, hedge trimmers, shovels, gloves, plastic bags, and other yard-care equipment. Eventually, even a truck might be purchased to carry the equipment.

Now you continue with the 3 rd and 4 th paragraphs.

Example Theme After Instruction (Cont.) Once some equipment is available, the next step in running a yard-care business involves taking care of the yards on a regular schedule. Each yard needs weekly attention, so a checklist or calendar needs to be made to ensure that each yard has been cared for each week. In each season, different types of yard care are required. In the spring, weeds need to be pulled and hedges and bushes need to be trimmed. New plants can be planted. In the summer, the lawn needs to be mowed. In the fall, leaves need to be raked. In the winter, after a snow storm, pathways need to be shoveled. After the work has been done, the final step in running a yard-care service is collecting the money. This needs to be done regularly. One system involves collecting the money immediately after work has been done. This system works the best, but its success depends on the people being home. Another system involves leaving a bill for work completed. This sometimes works. A third system involves sending a monthly bill. This system usually works, but it requires paying for envelopes and stamps. In sum, caring for people's yards and all the tasks related to running a yard-care service, including recruiting customers, getting equipment, doing the work, and collecting the money, can be hard work, but they can be enjoyable and very profitable. The money that is made can be spent on new yard-care equipment. Better yet, it can be spent on items that the worker really wants like new clothes and music equipment. Still better, the money can be saved to pay the worker’s way through college. Tuition, books, and room and board can be very expensive in college. Money saved early in life by having a yard-care business can really pay off in the long run by giving a person a great start toward a successful career after college.
