Run a Better Landscape Business| Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Run a Better Landscape Business Workshop: Virginia • Alberta • Minnesota • Massachusetts • Pennsylvania • Michigan • Ontario • Providence Most green industry owners are working too hard for margins that still feel too thin. You know the work. You know how to lead crews. You know how to get jobs out the door. But if profit keeps disappearing somewhere between the estimate and the invoice, the problem usually is not effort. It is the business fundamentals behind pricing, operations, and accountability. That is the pain point the Break Records Tour is built to solve. In two days with some of the best educators in the green industry, attendees get a clearer understanding of the numbers, systems, and leadership habits that strong landscape businesses rely on. Then they turn those lessons into a practical plan they can bring back to the business right away. What to Expect Day One | The Main Stage (8:00 AM – 5:00 PM) | Sam Gembel • Financial clarity you can act on Understand where margin is slipping, what the numbers are really saying, and which issues to address first. • A pricing framework grounded in real benchmarks Learn how to estimate work in a way that supports healthy profit, not just top-line revenue. • An operational diagnostic for your business Identify where capacity and margin are being lost across crew utilization, scheduling, and route efficiency. • People and team systems that actually work See the hiring, onboarding, and accountability structures that help teams perform without the owner having to drive every conversation. • AI tools you can use this week Explore practical ways operators are already using AI to save time on estimates, job postings, client follow-up, and crew communication. • The daily habits that improve leadership Learn the simple check-ins and end-of-day reviews that help great operators lead with more consistency. • A written 90-day plan Leave with a focused, prioritized action plan instead of a notebook full of ideas. Day Two | The Backstage Pass (8:00 AM – 12:30 PM) | Brian Fullerton An immersive facility tour of A&N hosted and led by Brian Fullerton inside a real host company. • A real operation, open to you Walk through rotating stations led by the team behind a high-performing landscape business. • The systems behind what you see Connect what is happening in the yard, fleet, crews, estimating, sales, and culture back to the principles from Day One. • Peer conversation that cuts through the noise Spend time with operators facing similar challenges and learn from the discussions that surface in the room. • Three actions for Monday morning Close the experience with three specific actions to take back and apply immediately. Why It Matters Across two days, attendees will: • Learn the financial and pricing systems strong contractors use to protect margin and improve profitability • See how leading companies build accountable, aligned teams so the owner is not the bottleneck • Leave with an operator-built playbook that can be applied right away Just practical education, proven business principles, and a room full of operators committed to building better businesses together. Every attendee also leaves with the official Break Records Tour tee, because this is more than an event. It is a community of operators committed to breaking records together.
