About this listen

What happens when two buddies in small-town West Virginia go from mowing neighbors' lawns with a John Deere to running a thriving hardscaping company? In this episode, I sit down with Randall from M.R. Landscapes to unpack the raw, unfiltered story behind their evolution from maintenance to installs, how they battled seasonal cash flow nightmares, and the moment they realized hardscaping was their future.

We talk about building a team, the pain of being stuck on the job instead of working on the business, and the power of budgeting, proposals, and communication in closing jobs fast. If you're a contractor trying to scale your business, navigate partnerships, or figure out when to finally hire that key crew member… this one’s for you.

Listen in for:

  • Why being on the tools too long might be hurting your growth

  • The danger of “bank account barometer” thinking

  • How SynkedUP helped shift their margins and mindset

  • And what it really takes to lead a team through the highs and lows

This is the cost of doing business; and it’s what they don’t show you on Instagram.
