Phil Gentry: The Tech Stack of a Modern Service Business

The retailers winning right now aren't working harder. They're working smarter — with the right tools running in the background while they focus on what actually matters.In this episode of Board Meeting Wednesday, I'm breaking down three platforms that are transforming how retail and service businesses operate: HighLevel, Mindbody, and Notion.GoHighLevel for marketing automation and CRM. Mindbody for booking, memberships, and client management. Notion for organizing everything so your team actually knows what to do and when to do it.I've been deep in the trenches of retail for years. The operators who figure out their tech stack early are the ones who scale. The ones who don't are buried in busywork wondering why they can't grow.Today we pull back the curtain on all three.
