Local Entrepreneur has never cut down a tree - Monster Trees branch out, grow to millions of dollars.
By Grant Moser
Monster Tree Service is just another success in a string of businesses for Josh Skolnick, 29. When the Fort Washington native started the company, he had never cut down a tree in his life. “Everyone doubted me. There wasn't one person, even my accountant, that thought this was going to work,” said Skolnick. “Now I’m making millions of dollars.”
In middle school, Josh began push-mowing neighborhood lawns. He was soon busy enough that he had to hire help. Every afternoon when school finished, he would head straight to work and wouldn't stop until the sun went down. By the time he got to high school, he had invested in some commercial lawn mowers, and by the time he graduated from Upper Dublin High School in 2002, he had 80 residential accounts.
His business was so profitable that he worked out an arrangement with the school that let him leave school at 10 a.m. every day to run his business while earning school credit. Shortly after he graduated, he acquired several other landscape companies and had close to 400 full-service lawn care accounts.
