Krisjan Berzins doesn’t want his crews at Kingstowne Lawn & Landscape to be jacks of all trades or drive all over the city. Since starting his company almost 20 years ago, he’s seen plenty of other contractors’ crews attempt to juggle multiple services at once, only to become masters of none, and sit in traffic to do it.
“A lot of companies will send a crew (to do) a little bit of everything,” says Berzins, president and CEO. “There are certain benefits to that. It is more efficient, potentially, to provide five different services at the same time. You could make the case that you’re reducing travel time and load time. But unless you have a special way of doing it, generally, most companies fall under that ‘master of none’ category. They’re doing a little bit of everything, but not really doing it very well.”
