Rodney Gaddis always has had a passion for lawn care. He began working in the industry when he was only 17 years old, jump-starting a successful career journey for him and his family.

Rodney and his wife, Heather, started their own commercial mowing, hardscaping and maintenance company, Gadco, in the mid-90s. At the time, the couple were subcontracting lawn care to another company preventing them from retaining all of their potential profit. So in 2005, they decided to purchase the Franklin, Tennessee, Spring Green franchise so he could control his own business, retain the profits in the lucrative area of fertilization and weed control, and also expand to residential, which would maximize his opportunity for building recurring revenue.

“I wanted an all-encompassing business—fertilization and weed control—instead of subcontracting those services,” said Gaddis. “I purchased my own Spring Green franchise to boost sales and revenue.”

Gaddis has not stopped growing and recently expanded his territory in 2015. He says the expansion is a great business move because of the rapid residential growth in the area and the potential for increasing customer density in areas he currently has business. The decision to expand was also influenced by their son, Aaron, who will soon be joining the family business full-time.

“I have been able to make a great living for my family, doing what I love,” said Gaddis. “Heather and I make a great team. She manages the office side of the business, and I take care of the labor and field work.” By working as a team, they have been able to consistently develop their business over the years and offer a full range of lawn care services to their growing customer base.
