In this episode I speak with Nick Conley from Nicklaus Landscaping, a landscape design and construction company based in Northern California.
Nick has been in business for around 6 years, and something he did early, which he's no doubt benefited from, was obtaining the services of a business coach. Specifically one who previously worked in landscaping, so we discuss that.
Nick also talks about the reason why he wants to build a successful business that will allow his employees to support their families.
And there are plenty of experiences that Nick discusses which will sound familiar to landscapers regardless of what country they're in, such as when he mentions how he no longer provides exact start dates for projects, as he wouldn't be able to meet the deadline, and would end up stressed and with an unhappy client, so now he just gives a very loose estimate.
