At The Grow Group and Grunder Landscaping Co., we believe the secret to success lies in constantly trying to improve and get better at what we do. Finding efficiencies within our landscaping businesses, following trends in design and maintenance, investing in training for our teams and capitalizing on the technology that can make our jobs easier are some of the many ways we all do this.
Earlier this year, we launched another tool for you to continue learning and growing your business, The Grow Show, powered by Stihl. In this weekly podcast, which we share on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and with video recordings on YouTube, we talk with experts and dissect the issues we think are most important for the success of your business.
Some of our popular recent episodes have included:
- Interview Series: Leading without the title with Mark Sanborn
- Sales: How do I handle price objections?
- Service stinks and that’s a good thing!
- Finance: What numbers matter most and how to review them
Technology has come a long way: I remember buying cassette tapes and CDs that successful businesspeople would record so I could listen to their advice while I drove around town. I learned a lot this way, and I like to think some of the business lessons even rubbed off on my kids when I’d make them listen on road trips too. Some of you reading this may even remember when our company offered cassettes and CDs like those for landscaping companies.
The Grow Show is kind of the evolution of these cassettes and CDs. We know how much time landscape pros like you spend in their truck – driving from job sites to client meetings to networking events and more – and we wanted to provide another tool for you to continue learning while you do it. We’ve gotten great feedback from listeners so far. So, give it a listen and let me know what you think!
