The Enterprise Value Specialists at Ceibass work with business owners in the lawn & landscape industry to enhance the value of their businesses and help them transfer ownership of those businesses.

At this time of year the first action any lawn & landscape business owner can take is to inventory their commitments for the coming year regarding their business,” said Tom Fochtman, Ceibass CEO. “ Everything starts with your intentions, your commitments. What are your revenue goals, your profit targets, your plans for equipment, your employees, your customers, your year? Notice that I didn’t ask what  you would like to have, or what would be nice, or your minimum goals or stretch goals. Everything starts with commitments.”

Ask yourself what are you and your management team committed to produce for the year? This will give you direction to know what you and your team will be responsible for during the year, (and what you’re not responsible for) so that you can hold yourself accountable for your performance.  This is a valuable skill that your management team will need to develop – the ability to look into the future, make commitments, set goals, identify interim goals and then deliver by the end of the year,” added Tom.

Generally, commitments revolve around employees and staff, systems and procedures, equipment and maintenance, and retaining and getting new customers.
