This Dallas mom grosses $1m/year in 4 months of work.
What does she do? Decorate porches with pumpkins in Dallas and Houston.
Here’s how the business breaks down:
Orders open in July and she sells out in August.
Last year she did 900 jobs for $300 – $2,000+ each. She also charges extra for removal.
She has 15 drivers, 10 delivery guys and a warehouse staff.
She’s been in business for 4 years.
No niche is too small! I will die on that hill.
I’m interviewing her on my podcast (The Koerner Office) on Monday to dissect this business even more. I'll share everything I learn here. So excited!!

Great stuff but it’s the net I care about….
Yeah after paying dozens of staff she might not be making that much
So she’s really bringing home 60k
that’s a fun biz
how does the biz operate if it’s only 1x per year around halloween? or does she do other seasonal decor?
900 jobs in 60 days is 15 jobs per day. so 1 job per driver.
I’m curious how this makes any sense?
As well, grossing $1mil @ 900 jobs is average of $1100/job… which seems ridiculous, unless theres some sort of weird rich person pumpkin decorating contest going on in Texas.
I’d say this is filled with holes. I can almost guarantee this is some rich ladies side project, turns a loss, and she’s over inflating all of the numbers. Probably counts uber deliveries as “drivers”, and a front desk at a storage facility as “warehouse staff”.
This reeks of rich people cosplaying as “business owner”.
Who tf would pay $1,100 for a carved pumpkin delivered to their porch?
gonna k1ll myself
