EXECUTIVE COACHING
My Story
Before you work with any coach, you need to know if they are qualified to help you get where you want to go. Most of them have not built a successful landscaping company, and certainly most of them aren’t still running one. There are way to many wannabe coaches who have no real track record of success. I started my landscaping company, Treppendahl Landscape, in May of 2012. We grew very quickly, focused on big projects in both commercial and residential. As a 24 year old I chased top line revenue and raced to the million dollar mark. We hit it between year 3-4. That was also the first year we lost money. I didn’t know my numbers, didn’t know how to hire people, didn’t have systems, it was chaos. We were doing $1.5M and losing over $100k a year. I acquired over $400k in debt to dig me out of the hole I got myself into that year and the following one. Working literally 90 hrs a week, recently married, trying to have kids, it was awful. However, in the midst of all this chaos, I met a mentor, a coach, who helped me when I needed it the most.
He quickly identified my problems and as painful as change was, it was less painful than the road I was headed. I quickly began to listen and watched my company transform. Within 6 months were profitable, and within 14 months we profited over $100k! Meanwhile, I slowly built a leadership team and learned how to market myself. I stayed the course. Withn 4 years we were debt free, and wihin 6 years I had completely worked myself out of operations. Within seven years, this is nuts, my family and I were able to move 700 miles away to another state, to pursue a better life in the foothills of the mountains in Greenville, SC. In these 20,000 hrs, I learned a ton about how to get out of trouble, how to grow the right way, how to scale marketing, and how to build a winning team. Now, I help others do the same. We work with landscapers that are over $750k to help them get to that $2M, $3M or beyond mark, while helping them work less and worry less. I’d love to help transform the journey you are on!
