Profit First for Lawn Care and Landscape Businesses

Profit First for Lawn Care and Landscape Businesses by Christeen Era & Steven A Rigolosi

 Many owners of lawn care and landscape businesses found their companies on the belief that they would make more money working for themselves than they would as employees. Dedicated to the maintenance and beautification of properties, they believe that their hard work and their expertise in softscape, hardscape, irrigation, or snow plowing will guarantee their company's success. But technical knowledge alone won't generate profit or help a company grow. In fact, the owners of lawn care and landscape companies often find themselves sacrificing their personal health and family life as they struggle to stay afloat and turn a tiny profit.  It doesn't have to be this way. By decreasing their expenses, managing their cash flow, and planning for strategic growth, these business owners can transform their companies into profit-making machines that reward them generously for their hard work, passion, and entrepreneurial spirit.  Profit First for Lawn Care and Landscape Businesses provides a comprehensive, industry-specific toolbox, not available anywhere else. The Green Profit Toolbox™ was created to help owners of lawn care and landscape industry businesses ensure strong profits and long-term growth. Christeen Era has identified not only key business models and best practices in the industry but also the hidden bleeds that kill your profit margin and destroy your bottom line. She helps you see what you never saw before with assessments that provide a clear, accurate snapshot of your current operations. She's mapped out a road to success that helps you identify your best customers and most profitable services, allowing you to smash through the unseen obstacles that stand in your way. Best of all, she's your biggest supporter. When you use the Profit First for Lawn Care and Landscape Businesses program, you pay yourself first, and you pay yourself well.   Do you want more income and more time to spend with your family? Do you want to stop worrying about making your payroll and paying your taxes? Do you want to grow your business without taking on crushing debt? Profit First for Lawn Care and Landscape Businesses explains how to achieve these goals, helping you achieve long-term business stability, strategic growth, and (just maybe) the life of your dreams.

The Tree Identification Book - George W. Symonds Cover Art

The Tree Identification Book

The Tree Identification Book by George W. Symonds

The classic easy-reference field guide with more than 1500 photographs: "An almost foolproof practical reference book." — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)   This useful book for botanists, horticulturists, and nature lovers is made up of two parts: Pictorial Keys and Master Pages. The Keys are designed for easy visual comparison of details that look alike, narrowing the identification of a tree to one of a small group—the family or genus. Then, in the Master Pages, the species of the tree is determined, with similar details placed together to highlight differences within the family group, thus eliminating all other possibilities. All of the more than 1500 photographs were made specifically for use in this book and were taken either in the field or of carefully collected specimens. Where possible, details such as leaves, fruit, etc., appear in actual size, or in the same scale.

Beyond Buds Marijuana Extracts—Hash, Vaping, Dabbing, Edibles and Medicines by Ed Rosenthal

Beyond Buds is a handbook to the future of marijuana. Prohibition’s end has led to a technological revolution that’s generated powerful medicines and products containing almost zero carcinogens and little smoke. Marijuana icon Ed Rosenthal and leading cannabis reporter David Downs guide readers through the best new consumer products, and demonstrate how to make and use the safest, cleanest extracts. Beyond Buds details how award-winning artisans make hash and concentrates, and includes modern techniques utilizing dry ice and CO2. The book is a primer on making kief, water hash, tinctures, topicals, edibles, and other extracts from cannabis leaves, trim, and bud bits, and it goes on to explore and simplify the more exotic and trendy marijuana-infused products, such as butane hash oil (BHO), shatter, wax, and budder. More complex than lighting a joint, these innovative products call for new accessories — special pipes, dabbing tools, and vaporizers — all of which are reviewed and pictured in the book. Beyond Buds expands on Rosenthal’s previous book Ask Ed: Marijuana Gold — Trash to Stash. Completely updated with full-color photographs that are both “how-to” guides and eye candy, this book enables not only the health-conscious toker but also the bottom line–driven cultivator.

Second Nature - Michael Pollan Cover Art

Second Nature

Second Nature A Gardener's Education by Michael Pollan

"One of the distinguished gardening books of our time," from the #1 New York Times –bestselling author of The Omnivore's Dilemma ( USA Today ).   Chosen by the American Horticultural Society as one of the 75 greatest books ever written about gardening   After Michael Pollan bought an old Connecticut dairy farm, he planted a garden and attempted to follow Thoreau's example: do not impose your will upon the wilderness, the woodchucks, or the weeds. That ethic did not, of course, work. But neither did pesticides or firebombing the woodchuck burrow. So Michael Pollan began to think about the troubled borders between nature and contemporary life.   The result is a funny, profound, and beautifully written book in the finest tradition of American nature writing. It inspires thoughts on the war of the roses; sex and class conflict in the garden; virtuous composting; the American lawn; seed catalogs, and the politics of planting a tree. A blend of meditation, autobiography, and social history, Second Nature , from the renowned author of The Botany of Desire , In Defense of Food , and other bestsellers, is "as delicious a meditation on one man's relationship with the Earth as any you are likely to come upon" ( The New York Times Book Review ).   "Usually when Americans have wanted to explore their relationship to nature they've gone to the wilderness, or the woods. Michael Pollan went to the garden instead . . . and he's returned with a quirky and pleasing book." —Annie Dillard   "A joy to read." — Los Angeles Times
