In this episode of the OWNR OPS Podcast, I’m back with Jacob Neffendorf of Rise Online Ads / Land Clearing Growth to break down the best land clearing markets in the U.S., and why market selection matters, but doesn’t limit your ability to hit seven figures.

Jacob runs ads for 100+ land clearing companies nationwide, and we get into the real-world data behind:

• Top land clearing states

• Why the South dominates demand (climate, regrowth, terrain, year-round work)

• Search volume vs competition: how to judge a market before you commit

• The “2,500 searches / 10 competitors” framework (and the math behind predictable weekly jobs)

• Average ticket sizes (skid steer vs dedicated mulchers) + what drives bigger contracts

• The real costs of mobilization, and why job size matters (especially with big iron)

• When it actually makes sense to upgrade from skid steer mulching → dedicated machines

• New vs used equipment strategies from top operators (warranty, dealer support, downtime)

If you’re running a land clearing or forestry mulching business or thinking about starting one, this episode will help you pick smarter markets, price better, and scale without killing cash flow.
