Season 2 kicks off with Andrew and Mike of Green Abundance by Design, an ecological landscaping company that takes a nature-led approach to designing and caring for landscapes. With a focus on native plant gardens, invasive species management, and thoughtful lawn care, they’re helping homeowners improve their properties while enriching the natural environment.
In this episode, we explore the counterintuitive decisions that fueled their growth—especially creating year-round jobs in a seasonal industry, raising rates with full transparency, and earning customer support by putting people first. Dennis also shares the business growth chart framework that helped them anticipate choke points like staffing, trucks, parking, and support roles—so they could solve problems before they slowed momentum.
If you’re interested in building a small business that lasts—with strong roots, smart systems, and long-term thinking—this episode is for you.
