Grave Care Business – Not a Kafkaesque Experience!

Many entrepreneurs have experienced the feeling of being lost. We will help you start your own Grave Care Business.

Are you working in a Kafkaesque corporation or a bureaucratic government organization?  Have you ever thought about striking out on your own?  Do you want to start your own business but you don’t know where to begin?

One of the characteristics of being an entrepreneur is the desire to ‘do it yourself.’  If you are a capable and creative person, you feel you can do almost anything.  Starting your own business should be easy.

Starting a Business Isn’t Always Easy

Starting your own business isn’t always easy but it might not be for the reasons you assume.

Our passion is cemeteries (grave care) and we also help people start their own cemetery maintenance businesses.  We have noticed 1 very common reason why people struggle starting their own businesses.

Entrepreneurs are a special breed.  We like to think we can do everything ourselves.  There is a problem with this way of thinking.  People who can do anything often try to do everything.

I mentioned the writer Franz Kafka, earlier.  Kafka’s writing often portrays a feeling of helplessness by trying to survive in a confusing, multi-layered organization.  Kafka worked for an insurance corporation in real life. Can you imagine the layers of bureaucracy he dealt with on a daily basis?

Contrary to his daily feelings of being suppressed by the stifling organization for which he worked, Kafka has an interesting quote:

I am Free and That is Why I Am Lost

Franz Kafka

I Am Free and That Is Why I am Lost

There are many interpretations to Kafka’s meaning of this quote.

Many entrepreneurs have experienced the feeling of being lost because they are free.  It is difficult to explain that feeling but if you have been there, you know the feeling. Since we are free to do anything, sometimes we try to do everything but we end up doing nothing.  It makes you feel lost.

Kafka, as a person who vilifies bureaucracy, understands freedom has its own limitations.

Have you ever felt these feelings?

Sunday Business Motivation – Don’t Dread Mondays!

If 81% of Americans dread going to work Monday morning, maybe there is a better way to make money.

Good Morning.  Today is Sunday July 10, 2022.  

Are you happy in your current work environment, or are you searching for something more meaningful? What is your long-term motivation to find meaning income instead of going to a job you dread?

Today is Sunday, the last day of the weekend. Are you enjoying your weekend with a sporting event or a picnic with your family? Are you looking forward to Monday, the start of the work week, or are you dreading going back to work. 

A 2019 article in INC. Magazine claims 81 percent of Americans feel a ‘Sunday Night Dread‘ before going to work Monday morning.  81 percent? To feel dread is understandable, especially when so many Americans are under pressure and underpaid doing unfulfilling, unrewarding work.

Simply, many people do not love their jobs.

A Better Way to Make Money

Yes, a steady job is important.  Yes, stable income is important.  But, maybe there is a better way to make money.  If 81% of Americans dread going to work Monday morning, maybe there is a better way to go through life.

We are passionate about two things: Cemeteries (grave care) and Business.  
We will help you find your passion.

Have you ever thought about starting your own Grave Care Business? We have developed a professionally produced Grave Care Business Course designed to help you start (and operate) your own Grave Care Business.

Starting a Grave Care Business: Your Personal Declaration of Independence!

Starting your own business is your own, personal Declaration of Independence.


Good morning!  Today is Sunday July 3, 2022. We are in the middle of the July 4 weekend. 

Do you ever think about the founders of our nation?  Do you ever think about what they must have felt as they drafted our Declaration of Independence?  It must have been an exciting time for them; a scary time.

The easy choice for them would have been to maintain their status quo.  It would have been much simpler to remain under British rule.  However, they wanted a better life for themselves, a better future for their families.

If you think about it, starting a business allows you to have a better life for yourself and a better future for your family.  Yes, starting your own business is scary, but it is also exciting

Starting your own business is your personal Declaration of Independence.

If you are motivated to start your own business, we can help.  

Our passion is cemeteries and our goal is to help you start your own Grave Care Business (properly, profitably, and respectfully).

Please read through our website.  We have a lot to offer. 
The full business course is only $259.95.

2022 Is Half Over – Are You Succeeding with your Business?

Summer grave care projects keep grave care business owners busy this year.


Hello, I am writing this on July 1, 2022. 

This morning it occurred to me, the year is half over.  For those of you reading this, you (we) only have six months remaining of this year.  Remember those New Year’s Goals you made in January?  You have 6 months to turn them into reality.

It seems like only yesterday we were working on our grave care scheduling for the upcoming winter season. The winter progressed nicely.  Now, July is here and summer is whizzing by.

We are steeped into the summer season right now.  Grounds maintenance and grave plot maintenance activities are keeping everyone busy but there are many other grave care services to offer, too.  Soon, August will be here, then September.  By Autumn, cooler weather grave care services will begin taking precedence.  And then winter…again.

How do you feel about the year being half over?  Are you making progress with your business?  Have you started yet?

If you are new to this website (GraveCareBusiness.com), you already realize Cemeteries are our passion.  In addition to our passion for cemeteries, we love helping people achieve their goal of starting their own business.  Grave Care is a wonderful and rewarding business to start.  Our goal is to help you start your own Grave Care Business properly, profitably, and respectfully. 

If you have any questions about grave care or the course materials, please let us know.  We are happy to answer your questions before and after you place your order.

Grave Care Business – Autumn 2021

If you have ever thought about starting your own Grave Care Business, our company has developed a professionally produced business course to help you start, operate, and grow your own business.

Autumn Cemetery Grave Care

November is here and Grave Care is especially vital right now.

Does it seem to you that we have been dealing with this Covid nightmare for far too long?  The world changed in March 2020.  We are now in November 2021 and things are still askew.

As we approach the winter months, no one really knows if the Covid pandemic will re-strengthen causing increased shutdowns again this winter..

If you enjoy visiting cemeteries in your local area, you have probably noticed an increase in the number of under-maintained and neglected cemeteries.  One of the reasons for this is that maintenance companies are having trouble finding reliable workers for general grave care duties.

Although this is bad for cemeteries, it is good for anyone wishing to start their own Grave Care Business.  Right now is a perfect time to start.  Pre-winter maintenance, plot maintenance, grave flowers for Christmas, gravestone cleaning, and many other services are in demand right now.

We find there is an untapped demand.  Families are desperate to have their loved-ones’ gravesites maintained in a professional manner.

If you have ever thought about starting your own Grave Care Business, our company has developed a professionally produced business course.  This course is designed to help you start, operate, and grow your own Grave Care Business.

For more information, please visit our main website page (https://GraveCareBusiness.com)

Grave Care Made Easier

Grave care is a rewarding and fulfilling business. Providing grave care services in cemeteries that encourage proper maintenance makes this business especially easy.

I love cemeteries that encourage proper maintenance.

Grave care is a rewarding and fulfilling business.  Providing grave care services in cemeteries that encourage proper maintenance makes this business especially easy. 

I visited a cemetery this morning.  I had never been to this cemetery but as soon as I passed through the entry gate, I could tell cemetery management greatly understands the value of proper upkeep.

I was in this cemetery to complete a cemetery mapping project.  However, for grave plot maintenance, gravestone cleaning, and grave decorations, I noticed 3 beneficial attributes.

1) A Source For Water
Gravestone Cleaning requires a source of water.  Carrying your own supply is not difficult but it is much easier in a cemetery that has a water line.

2) A Bin for Rubbish and Old Flowers
Grave decorations are in great demand especially during the holidays. Cemeteries that provide rubbish bins allow you to dispose of old decorations and trash onsite.

Cemetery_Rubbish_Bin

3) Clearly Defined Rules
Before taking on clients in an unfamiliar cemetery, I recommend that you understand the cemetery’s rules and regulations.  This cemetery provides a billboard containing their rules for proper maintenance.  Contact information is given at the bottom of the billboard.  This makes it easy to contact cemetery management to discuss my work on their grounds.

Cemetery_Rule_and_Regulations

One additional benefit I noticed in this particular cemetery is that fresh soil is easily accessible to fill in low spots or areas of erosion.

Grave Care is a fantastic business.  It is rewarding and profitable if you perform your work correctly and understand how to price your services.

April Showers Bring Cemeteries May Flowers (and grass).

Some people think grave care is strictly about mowing grass and cleaning gravestones.

Now that we’re truly coming out of the winter months, the demand for Grave Care Services will rapidly increase.  If you offer any of the Grave Plot Maintenance Services suggested in our Grave Care Business Guidebook, you will be busy this spring.

Some people think grave care is strictly about mowing grass and cleaning gravestones. While those are two important aspects of providing grave care services to your clients, grave care business owners provide many beneficial services.

Grave care equates to cemetery beautification. Wildflowers certainly beautify a cemetery. As a grave care business owner, you can nurture proper wildflower cultivation to beautify the graves you maintain. We will show you how to do this properly.

Of course, some of your clients will solely want the grass maintained on their loved-ones’ gravesites…and, that’s okay, too.

Many of our customers in the warmer states are already providing their 3rd mowing services of the season.  This time of year, it is very easy to build a client list.  In fact, demand is sometimes so heavy that we have had to turn clients away in years past.  Of course, a good pricing strategy will assure you can keep your best, and most profitable, clients.

Pricing and Job Estimating is something new Grave Care Business owners struggle with.  It is difficult to know exactly how much money to charge your customers.  If you charge too little, you won’t make as much money as possible.  If you charge too much, your customers might not hire you.  Our guidebook teaches you how to price your services so you can make the most amount of money in your business.

Grave Care is a rewarding business.  It’s not only about money but it is also about helping people and doing work that is fulfilling.

If you have ever thought of starting your own Grave Care Business, our guidebook and software course will help you get started, today.

Grave Care Services – Price Estimation

Pricing and Job Estimating is something new Grave Care Business owners struggle with.  It is difficult to know exactly how much money to charge your customers.  If you charge too little, you won’t make as much money as possible.  If you charge too much, your customers might not hire you.  Our guidebook teaches you how to price your services so you can make the most amount of money in your business.

Equipment selection is important. Our guidebook includes hints and tips of which equipment works best for gravesite upkeep such as industrial-grade equipment for large cemetery upkeep or battery powered lawn mowers for smaller jobs (pictured above). Also, we discuss many of the rules and regulations that you will need to know before providing Grave Care Services.

The materials within the Grave Care Business Course include an extensive section on how to properly price your services so you can make the most money possible. Additionally, the software section includes ESTIMATING SOFTWARE to help you calculate your prices.

Grave Care is a rewarding business.  It’s not only about money but it is also about helping people and doing work that is fulfilling.

Grave Care Entrepreneurs are Straining at their Slips

This morning, one of my Facebook friends posted the following quote:

I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,

Straining upon the start.

The game’s afoot;

Follow your spirit:…

The original context of the Shakespearean reference was a message to soldiers preparing for battle.  But, this morning I was thinking of it in terms of entrepreneurs who are “straining upon the start” to become business owners.

As I write this, it is early on a cold crisp February morning.  The world is still sleepy but soon the sun will rise and everyone will come to life.  Likewise, the year is still early.  We made it past January and the year is beginning to come to life.

The year is still new.  Maybe your New Year’s Resolutions have begun to fade.  However, if you are an entrepreneur who thinks about starting your own business, I want to give you encouragement to start RIGHT NOW.

January passed by in a flash.  If you let it, February will pass by just as quickly.  And then March…and then April…and then May.  Don’t let the whole year pass you by.  Seize it right now!

If you have ever thought about starting your own business and if you have a love of cemeteries, a Grave Care Business is a wonderfully rewarding business to start.

By starting a Grave Care Business, you can choose your own hours, perform your work in beautiful surroundings, and operate a profitable and fulfilling business.

We have developed a professionally produced business course designed to help you Start & Operate your own Grave Care Business.  To learn more about the course and order it, visit our main webpage:  https://GraveCareBusiness.com

I love the line “straining at the start.”  I think most entrepreneurs can relate.  We’re all straining like greyhounds in our slips…barely able to contain our excitement.  I understand it.  I’ve been there.  I’m excited to help you get started.

Let me know if I can help or answer any questions. – Keith

Gravesite Mowing – Battery Operated Lawn Mower

Grave Mowing

Grave care is a fantastic business to operate.  Grave care includes: gravestone cleaning, seasonal grave decorations, winterization, and other services.  Plot maintenance is also a very important aspect to many grave care businesses.  If you provide plot maintenance in your grave care business, grass mowing should be on your list of services.

Mowing Gravesites

Increasingly, I have found that customers, as well as cemetery management companies, are interested in reducing air pollution and noise pollution.  Traditional lawn mowers spew a lot of pollutants into the atmosphere.  Unfortunately, until recently, an internal combustion engine lawn mower was the only practical way to mow grass.  However, in recent years, battery operated lawn mower technology has come a long way. The torque is great and the battery life is longer.

Environmentally Responsive Mowing

Internal combustion engines have a lot of negatives.  They are noisy, require gasoline and oil, and emit pollutants into the atmosphere.  I am always looking for environmentally responsible alternatives to traditional mowing practices especially when I’m working in cemeteries.

Last month, I picked up this 80V battery operated lawn mower on clearance.  I have used battery operated lawn mowers in the past with lackluster results.  Since this mower was on clearance, I was willing to spend the money to see how well it does at mowing overgrown gravesites.  After mowing a few dozen gravesites, I’m impressed with its performance.

Grave Care and Grave Mowing

Due to its low noise and air pollution, I feel good about mowing with this mower.  In the past, I had to stop mowing when there was a funeral service nearby, but the quietness of this lawn mower allows me to continue working.  The fact that it is environmentally responsive is very good for public relations.

If you operate a grave care business, I recommend adding a battery operated lawn mower to your business.  I believe you will find a battery powered lawn mower will be looked upon very favorably by your clients.

Grave Care Business

For information on how to start your own Grave Care Business, please read through our website.  We have developed a professionally produced Grave Care Business Course designed to help you start and grow your own business.  Included within the material is a great discussion on proper protocols for mowing gravesites.  The program also includes estimating software to help you know how much money to charge for your services.

Thank you.  If you have any questions, please let me know.
