Lessons Learned from 45 Years in Business with Glenn Curtis of Plantenance Landscape Group

Differentiate your business: Look for gaps in the market and offer unique services or approaches, even if it means 'zagging' when others 'zig'.

Prioritize planning and design: Utilize detailed plans, 3D imaging, and design services to ensure client satisfaction, control job scope, and provide accurate estimates.

Invest in your team: Foster a 'people business' mentality, providing clear career paths, professional development, and a supportive culture to retain skilled employees.

Practice open-book management: Share financial information and company goals with your team to create transparency and empower them to take ownership.

Focus on attitude over skills: When hiring, prioritize candidates with the right attitude, as skills can be taught, but a positive mindset is harder to instill.
