#164 - Realtor to Landscaper: Drew Alexander on First Impressions, Faith, and the 80/20 Rule

from Turf Nerds: A Lawn Care Podcast · host Evan Lindman and Greg Durbin

The From the Field series is back, on this episode of Turf Nerds: A Lawn Care Podcast and we’re joined by Drew Alexander of First Impressions Landscaping (serving North & South Carolina). Drew shares how he pivoted from real estate into full-service landscaping, why first impressions matter, how he built steady work through realtors and reviews, and what he learned about saying “no” by following the 80/20 rule. We also dig into faith, praying before work, and using the business as a ministry. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tap Here for Turf Nerds Merch!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Look!
