In this solo episode, Jeremiah Jennings tackles one of the toughest realities of growing a landscaping company becoming too labor-heavy. Drawing from his own experience at Growing Green Landscapes, Jeremiah breaks down what happens when payroll gets out of control and how to balance your crew size with your revenue. He explains the key metrics that every owner must know revenue per employee, labor-to-revenue ratio, and revenue per man-hour and shares practical steps to systematize operations, cross-train teams, and eliminate inefficiencies. From using LMN and job costing to cut wasted labor to forecasting smarter budgets for 2026, this episode is a blueprint for small business owners who want to grow sustainably and profitably.
