Let's Get Some Positivity Rolling
In this episode, Jay Worth welcomes Jon Foote to the show!
Better known on the internet as The Industrial Tarzan, Jon is a contract climber. Kind of like how companies hire a "fractional" CFO or Marketing Manager, Jon contracts with companies on jobsites where they need a climber but can't afford to bring one on payroll full-time.
During our conversation, Jon talks about how safety-minded culture, comraderie, and knowing your numbers are critical to success in the Tree Care industry.
Jon is also a competitive climber and is sponsored by Gap Arborist Supply in those events. Like ZigZagMan, The Industrial Tarzan has a large social media following. You can click a link below to check out his content!
