How Jeff Stopa Built a 40 Person Landscaping Business
In this episode I interviewed Jeff Stopa, owner of Stopa's Landscaping in Connecticut. Jeff shares his journey from starting the business at 19 to building a company with up to 40 employees, offering services like lawn care, landscape design, fencing, masonry, and holiday lighting.
Key Highlights:
Team Success: Jeff credits his team’s longevity to a family-like atmosphere and mutual respect, which he fosters through support and fair treatment.
Customer Focus: He emphasizes the importance of clear communication, quick callbacks, and accurate estimates to build trust and maintain a strong reputation.
Marketing Strategies: Jeff relies on SEO, local Facebook groups, and community referrals to generate leads.
Winter Diversification: Moving away from snow plowing, Jeff focuses on services like holiday lighting to sustain revenue during the offseason.
Advice: Jeff encourages landscapers to track financials closely, communicate effectively, and balance work with family life.
Jeff’s story offers practical insights into scaling a landscaping business while maintaining strong relationships and work-life balance.
