Green Growth Method Step #5 - MDL Episode 75

In today's episode, we are wrapping up our 6 episode series about our Green Growth Method.  

 

We started back with Episode 70 where we briefly went over all five steps of the Green Growth Methods.  Each episode since then has been a deeper dive into each individual Step of the Green Growth Method.

If you missed any of those you can listen to them here.

So that brings us to the fifth and final step today which is Grow Your Business.

 

Biggest Mistake I see landscapers make is thinking that strictly making more sales is enough to grow their business.

 

This can get you in trouble because if you don't have your business set up to handle an influx of work, you'll end up in chaos.

Also, if you are putting more sales on top of an estimating system that isn't profitable,  then it doesn’t matter how much you’re working if you aren’t getting to keep any of the profits. 

As far as teaching the Green Growth Method goes, I’d definitely say this is the most eclectic step.  It is kinda a mix of a lot of things.

 

It’s marketing, it’s social media, its sales, it’s self-improvement….

The other steps were easy to pigeon hole into one topic.  This is the catch-all for all the things you need to do to successfully grow your business.

You’ll see that even though this is a 5 step method,  we don’t have it laid out in a start here at step one and work your way to step 5 and your done linear path.  

We have it laid out in a circle...kinda looks like a recycling sign.

 

And it is a circle because:
     1) all of these steps are tied together and build off of each other
     2) you’re never really done working on your business

The last thing we cover in today's episode is how important it is to have an accountability partner to lean on when you're going through the process of working on your business.

Be it a spouse, a key employee in your business, or paying to be in an accountability group...

Whatever you choose, we are all better together so make you have someone to help get you through working on your business.
