6 reasons to attend GROW! 2011

Registration is open for GROW! 2011: A three-day learning experience for landscapers hosted by Marty Grunder and Joe Calloway. The event will provide advice on how to grow business, even in this challenging economy.

Grunder gives six reasons for attending this year’s event in Dayton, Ohio, from Feb. 10-12.

1) Joe Calloway. Joe is the author of “Becoming a Category of One,” and he will be with us all day on Friday and Saturday. Check him out at www.joecalloway.com. If you haven’t heard Joe speak or read this book, you are missing a lot. What you will learn from him is worth the price of admission alone.

2) Gene Marks. Here's another great speaker you won't want to miss. He runs The Marks Group, out of Pennsylvania. Gene is a techie friend of mine who is also an author. His fifth book is titled “In God We Trust, Everyone Else Pays Cash.” He works with landscapers all over the country to do things quicker and better using technology. He has helped Grunder Landscaping Co. save time and money. Gene’s website is www.marksgroup.net.

3) Matt Caruso. Matt’s a phenomenal hardscaper out of Sterling Heights, Michigan. He has been working with me for several years and always has helpful information to share. He will speak, but best of all, he’s at the event the whole time and ready and willing to help you.

4) Myself. Of course, I will be speaking to the group. Click here to see the Agenda.

5) Networking. You will be able to share with Green Industry owners from all around the country. They will be ready and willing to answer questions, talk about their businesses and ask you about yours. Everyone has a story to share at GROW! Sharing is what GROW! is all about.

6) Invest in yourself and your company today and get your 2011 off to a great start for you and your team members. It’s going to be a great year. But only if you think that way and take action to make it a great year. The best investment any entrepreneur can even make is always in themselves and their people.
