Jack Canfield, Author
This groundbreaking workshop is for owners and managers to best understand how to use data to improve performance and margins. The workshop isolates the data that is valuable, helps you better understand how to use it, and finally how to implement changes that directly improve the bottom line. The workshop will provide benchmarking information across landscape businesses of all sizes with a focus on the Midwest. It will isolate key performance indicators that can be reworked to improve profit. It will explore production – where the good data is captured and provide operational efficiencies across all levels. Lastly, it will dive into estimating so that no job walks out the door without the best possible margins in mind. Whether belts tighten, loosen, or stay the same in 2023, your business will be totally prepared.
With decades of experience spanning all aspects of the landscape industry—from spreading fertilizers to building budgets for multimillion dollar firms—Bryan has a passion for helping both people and companies succeed. Most recently he was the former Vice President of Customer Experience at Aspire before launching his own consulting business.
