“You can’t hide passion” Enzo Ferrari knew. Ettore BUGATTI knew. Henry Royce of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars knew. They all started with the intent to produce the best. That starts with an obsession with the goal. Be the best. To be the best it takes relentless focus. Resilience to the ups and downs. I’ve recently found a small group of clients committed to owning one of the finest lawns in the UK. A small group of people who look forward to owning a piece of art, English garden art. A...

Storm Elin came through the UK over the weekend. I was in my van. Let's say it was windy, and wet. But It was quite relaxing to listen too as well. So, for once I recorded the sounds from my van.

You may think that a guy who is growing a fine lawn business is fit (very), well the truth is I’m fitter than most, but not as fit as I could be…. This got me thinking about fitness habits and what options are out there. I also got to think about how they run their business model. When I started listening to a podcast called Acquired, I got an idea that would not only make me fit but also my lawn service Lawn Plan. It’s amazing what you can learn if you travel up and down the M1 as often as...

I wanted to book mark a significant change in thinking. For so many years the period from September to January has been hard, for my mind. I always thought it was a school thing, to do with my ADHD and Dyslexic ways, I'd run off looking for new things, or was it I was looking for a way out. Well 4 weeks ago, I was held onto, and given the chance to start doing the one thing I never thought I could do, which was focus on my lawn service Lawn Plan during a period when everyone said you...

The more I stay focused on Lawn Plan and doing One Thing Well, the more I'm digging into doing things better, I mean really better, and the more I'm trying to even out the business model. Today I concluded 2 major breakthroughs: Grow Lights used on football pitches, grow grass all through winter, so why not do the same on a Lawn Plan reset. Even thought its the end of the 2023 season, the 2024 season is coming, and because I can only work on a select number of lawns, to help with the...

Today I changed back the logo on the All Gardening website, a simple enough task, but a vital one. You see I've started to settle on a real purpose for All Gardening, and it was a long way to go, but it's come from a heart felt place. The All Gardening logo tells a story, an ALL story, it tells a story of doing everything, then one day doing just one thing. Today and into the future I plan to grow the finest lawns in and around London and Yorkshire. Deciding on that has been a...

It's not easy to unpack what I've learnt. But lets say I am trying to. Today I share what I think I now understand about my mind, dyslexic and adhd. I'd always thought differently about things, I'd try to hide things and suppress things. But that was going to be life-limiting. So it had to change.

I took a photo last week, it was of me walking on a lush lawn. It made me think, "I'd like to have been waking barefoot". Which made me settle my thinking on my marketing strategy. Its simple, but not been easy to devise. Home page header creative. Take some idea into email. Take the email and share on social. Some will love it, and some will leave.
