Year-End Reflections: The Highs and Lows of 2025 & Grunder Landscaping with Marty & Vince

Описание: Marty Grunder and Vince Torchia conduct Grunder Landscaping Company's 2025 year-end review using their Four Ps framework: Platform, People, Process, and Profit. In this honest conversation, they celebrate adding $4 million in revenue and 40 people with low turnover, while acknowledging where they fell short—from training gaps when growing fast to cash management challenges that required daily AR reviews. You'll hear what they learned about hiring key players, why "trust the process" only works when people actually understand the process, and what Marty discovered by rereading his 2014 journal.
