Over the years, we’ve had a lot of landscape professionals tour Grunder Landscaping Co. as part of our Fall Field Trips and the other educational events we offer through The Grow Group. The tours are an opportunity to see exactly how a successful $5-million landscaping company operates, what the GLC team does well, the challenges they face, and what they’re working hard at to make better.
GLC is by no means perfect, but they are exceptionally organized, and nearly everyone who goes through their shop remarks on it. There truly is a place for everything, and everything is in its place. Here Marty gives you a peek inside their set-up and into what being organized can do for your bottom line:
Get your shop and your company organized and you’ll:
Spend less time searching for the tools, materials, and files you need to do your job
Enable new hires to learn the ropes much more quickly
Lessen the stress of your whole team
Most important of all, when you’re organized, you greatly improve your efficiency and that, in turn, drives profitability. This week find one area of your company—a station in your shop, a truck, a folder of digital files—and organize it. We guarantee you’ll feel so much better and in control of your days just by taking a few first steps.
See you next week!

We’re heading to sunny San Diego August 6–7 for the fourth annual NALP Field Trip with Frank Mariani and Marty. Join us and go behind the scenes of the San Diego branch of LandCare, a national powerhouse with a local focus. This is a rare opportunity to see how a major company that’s figured out operations, training, and culture on a large scale applies that knowledge at a $6M branch and how you can too at your business.
