Customer Reviews
Great podcast for Landscape design + outdoor living company owners!

Can’t hear it anymore
Love this show and have listened for a few years. For some reason over the past few months it’s become a whisper show and the audio is too low to hear while doing any type of physical labor.
Techo- Bloc Philly
Got the opportunity to listen to Josh live on the hardscaper growth at the Techo-Bloc Philly Showcase. He has great insights to what this industry requires for growth and leading your team to a unified vision so you can scale at any level.
