Today, we have an incredible success story to share with you!
It’s the story of Moh Ghazala, a Jim’s Mowing franchisee who has achieved remarkable results in just six and a half months. Moh’s journey is an inspiring testament to the power of the Jim’s Group brand and the opportunities it presents for aspiring entrepreneurs.
From the very beginning, Moh’s experience with Jim’s Group has been nothing short of extraordinary.
In his first job, Moh received an unserviced lead notification and wasted no time in contacting the customer. Moh gave a quote that exceeded his expectations, and to his surprise, the customer accepted it.
This initial job not only helped Moh purchase the tools he needed but also provided him with a significant $4,000 deposit on an $8,500 project.
The level of trust and confidence in the Jim’s Group brand was evident, as the customer displayed faith in Moh’s abilities.
The power of the Jim’s Group brand extends beyond job opportunities. As Moh walks down the street, people stop him and ask about his services, simply because of the association with Jim’s Group.
It’s a testament to the brand’s reputation and the trust it has built among the community. Moh attracts attention and leads to numerous pickups from interested customers. In fact, he estimates that he has received around 25 to 30 pickups on the street in the last three months alone.
But it’s not just the brand that sets Moh apart. His exceptional conversion rate of leads into actual jobs is an impressive feat. He attributes his success to two key factors: prompt customer engagement and delivering quality service. Moh understands the importance of calling customers back within minutes, often achieving a response rate of 90 to 95%.
By detailing the job, Moh has been able to convert the majority of his leads into real jobs. Even as he refines his processes and charges competitive rates, the demand for his services continues to grow, showcasing the immense market potential for franchisees like Moh.
Jim Penman, the founder of Jim’s Group, commends Moh on his outstanding achievements. With 125 5-star ratings and a consistently high conversion rate, Moh’s success is a testament to his dedication and the immense opportunities within the Jim’s Group franchise.
Moh Ghazala is not just a franchise owner – he’s a testament to the power of a Jim’s Group franchise. His journey began with zero resources and a heap of debt, and within seven months, he was achieving an income many only dreamed of.
During a recent Jim’s Training event, Moh discusses his experience, the opportunities that a Jim’s Group franchise can provide, and how you can replicate his success. Let’s dive in!
The Starting Point
With debts totaling $58,000, Moh bought into a Jim’s Group franchise, possessing only a mower, blower, and trimmer.
Despite his shaky start, his determination, hard work, and the support of his franchisor helped him kickstart his journey on the 15th of March.
That first day was filled with anxiety and excitement, waking up at 4:30 am and waiting eagerly for any leads to come.
With no leads coming in the first two hours, he didn’t lose hope. He spent his time wisely by organizing his regulars for the next two months and strategizing on how he could serve them.
First Job, First Success
At 8:30 in the morning, the first job notification came through.
The job was in an abandoned garden that hadn’t been touched for five years. It seemed impossible – he didn’t even have a chainsaw. Yet, he decided to take the plunge and quote $7,500 plus GST, expecting the client to turn him away.
Instead, the client asked, “When can you start?”
With the deposit from his first job, Moh bought the tools he needed.
Together with two others, they worked a total of 16 hours to complete the task, earning him $7,500 plus GST. This not only helped him settle his debts but also set a precedent for his future success.
An Unstoppable Journey
In his first week, Moh earned $12,500, which rose to $27,500 by the end of the first month.
He was inundated with work, and as his reputation grew, so did his clientele.
Despite the initial challenges and apprehensions, he managed to earn $165,000 within seven months, and now, he’s aiming for $400,000 in his first year.
Moh attributes his success to three key strategies: quick responses to leads, maintaining a written record, and consistent updates to customers.
With these strategies in place, he’s not only kept his clients satisfied but also received rave reviews for his exceptional service.
The Value of a Jim’s Group Franchise
Aside from his relentless drive and customer-centric strategies, Moh also attributes his success to the prestige associated with the Jim’s Group franchise.
With the support and recognition from the Jim’s brand, he found it easier to attract clients and get jobs. The leads he received through the franchise made the job easier, unlike other platforms that have competitive bidding.
He also observed that there is an undersupply of traders and an oversupply of jobs. Therefore, despite the cost of leads, the potential for profit was immense. For instance, he could earn $4,000 from a job that took less than two days – a massive return on a $15 lead.
A Franchise That Gives Back
What sets Jim’s Group apart is the level of support offered to the franchisees.
Moh recounted how he had the freedom to contact his franchisor frequently for advice, especially during his initial days. From fielding queries to handling complaints, the franchisor was there to guide him through.
The franchise also encourages franchisees to be proactive and take advantage of all opportunities.
For example, Moh emphasized the importance of sending surveys to clients after a job is completed to obtain feedback and potential referrals. This process not only improved service quality but also created a network of satisfied customers who would recommend his services to others.
Key Takeaways for Aspiring Franchisees
Moh’s journey from zero to hero has several key takeaways for anyone considering a franchise with Jim’s Group.

Despite his initial debts and limited resources, Moh never doubted his abilities and determination to succeed. His strong belief in his ability to create a successful business was a crucial factor in his journey.
Take the Leap of Faith
Facing a seemingly impossible job on his first day did not deter Moh. He saw it as an opportunity and took the risk. The reward was a precedent for future success.

A significant advantage of a franchise like Jim’s Group is the vast support network it provides.
The recognition from the brand and the steady stream of leads make it easier for franchisees to get jobs and grow their business.
Maintain a Strong Customer Focus
Moh’s customer-centric strategies, including quick responses, consistent updates, and feedback surveys, were key to his success.
These strategies not only keep clients satisfied but also resulted in excellent reviews and repeat business.
Capitalizing on Opportunities
When he saw the massive return potential from a $15 lead, Moh realized the value of each opportunity. He used this to his advantage and maximized his profits.
The Road Ahead
When asked about his future plans, Moh is optimistic.
He plans to continue to grow his business and aims to reach a revenue target of $400,000 in his first year. He also plans to hire additional staff to handle the increasing demand for his services.
