OFI 1309: A Great Friendship, A Great Partnership & A Great Business | FFA SAE Edition | Tad Nelson | Rigby High School FFA
National Proficiency Winner, Tad Nelson. Tad's story began in the 6th grade, but it has a twist. He started his lawn and landscape business with his best friend, and they stayed friends and business partners throughout the entire run of the business until they recently sold it. And, they are not related but had the same last name. So, it was easy to name the business, "Nelson Mow & Trim". Tad and his buddy Brigham got really serious about this business in the 8th Grade, after they had had two years of experience under their belt. They took out a loan, purchased a used but very high quality Walker Mower and started marketing their business more aggressively. Soon, they were hiring employees, doing jobs in nearby cities that were much bigger than their hometown and really learning about business.
