Geoff Scott and his friend John started farming because they wanted to grow their own food. They started off with 32 broiler chickens, a tractor from the ‘40s, and a handshake deal with the landowner. From these humble beginnings, they’ve added Helvetia Farm Market and Helvetia Poultry Processing to their business, along with expanding Marion Acres to raise hundreds of chickens every year, along with turkeys, pigs, and cows, all of which is housed on a new, larger plot than the small farm they started with. That all-in-one approach is a big factor in Marion Acres’ success. In today’s interview, we’ll find out why Geoff decided to add their own market and processing plant, and how this vertical integration has helped them grow their revenue. We’ll also find out how they’ve built a team as the business evolved, and how they built their brand in the local community to get their meat and eggs such a huge following. Of course, there’s a lot that needs to happen before you can grow your chicken farming business like Marion Acres. We’ll find out how much it cost to start their farm, what kind of equipment they use, and how to find the right size and type of land for poultry farming. He’ll also share the mistakes he made early on and what hacks he’s learned along the way. 💥 Most New Businesses Fail From Guessing 💥 UpFlip Accelerator gives you the system to launch faster and get clients sooner. 👉 https://www.upflip.com/accelerator Or start FREE with our quick-start trainings ↓ 🧽 How to start a $140k/month cleaning business - https://learn.upflip.com/cleaning-business-masterclass 🥤 How to start a $50K/month vending business - https://learn.upflip.com/the-vending-bootcamp-masterclass 🖌️ How to…
