My friend David Whittaker hosted me on his Grass to Gratitude podcast this week, and boy did we cover some ground. David and I met through industry events in my early days after college. After a very successful career, he decided to cut it short, take a huge leap of faith, and start EquiScape Business Advisors, LLC. If you take the time to listen, you will hear what a great guy he is, and how much he loves this industry and the people who work in landscaping.
This was a wide ranging conversation that covered all kinds of random topics, but mostly it was just two dudes talking about the landscaping industry and what we have witnessed these last thirty years since we entered the occupation.
There’s no lack of gratitude, and as many stories as we shared, there are so many other wonderful people that have been part of our respective stories.
We are in the business of building relationships with people who do landscaping and aquatics, as a service to those who need our services. It’s all about people…
—Kurt Bland, President
