Otta's take
Theo Margolius
COO of Otta
When it comes to lawn maintenance, many homeowners typically have to deal with several contractors. This can make lawn care more complicated and expensive than it needs to be. LawnStarter solves this problem by aggregating lawn mowing, fertilizing, and maintenance into one convenient purchase point.
As a marketplace, LawnStarter focuses on helping existing lawn care businesses grow, rather than trying to push their own services. This differentiates them from other providers. The company has seen impressive growth since it was first founded, and it now operates in 120 cities around the US. According to LawnStarter's CEO, the company's revenue has grown at a rate of 100% a year since its inception.
To date, LawnStarter has raised around $18 million in funding, which is a testament to investors' confidence in the product. This confidence will be instrumental to LawnStarter's future success, as the lawn care market has grown increasingly competitive in recent years.
