From uncovering the fun in prospecting and discovering your team’s motivation, he explores how residential and commercial referrals—perhaps from your clients’ neighbors—can be goldmines. Whether it’s using golf outings and meals for prospecting or tapping into community meetings, our discussion revolves around the timeless advice: go where your clients are. Join us as we uncover the secrets to thriving in the landscaping industry by mastering these essential elements of business strategy.
