Twice a year, a group of landscaping business owners step away from the day-to-day and spend a few days doing something most never make time for; working on their business instead of in it. That’s what the GIM Winter Retreat is built for.
Some Things Need to Be In Person
Online calls are useful. But there’s a different level of clarity that comes from being in a room with people who are running the same kind of business you are. The conversations go deeper. Problems get solved faster. And you leave with more than notes, you leave with a plan.
Inside the GIM Winter Retreat
The Working Sessions
These aren’t presentations you sit through. They’re working sessions built around the actual businesses in the room. Carson and Chester dig into what’s happening in your company, from sales, operations, hiring, cash flow, and the group works through it together. Practical, focused, and no filler.
The Setting
The retreat is held at an upscale venue. That’s intentional. The environment helps you shift out of operator mode and into owner mode. When the setting is right, the thinking follows.
The People
Everyone in the room has skin in the game. These are owners who are serious about growth, willing to be honest about where they’re stuck, and generous with what’s working. The peer conversations alone are worth the trip.
What You Walk Away With
Clear Communication
Most bottlenecks in a landscaping business trace back to a communication problem. You’ll leave with specific frameworks to fix how direction flows through your company, from you to your team, and from your team to your clients.
A 90-Day Plan
Not goals. A plan. You’ll leave with a concrete 90-day roadmap built around your business, with clear priorities and next steps. It’s the bridge between what you learned at the retreat and what actually changes when you get home.
What Gets Covered
A Tailored Breakdown of Your Business
Every session starts with your actual numbers and your actual situation. No generic advice.
- The Gaps — Where is revenue leaking? Where is your team breaking down? Where are you leaving growth on the table? You’ll know by the time you leave.
- The Quick Wins — GIM’s approach has always been to get you ROI fast. The retreat surfaces the changes you can make in the next 30 days that will show up in your business immediately.
- Fast Idea Exchange — Some of the best moments come from rapid-fire sharing between attendees — what’s working in their market, what they’ve tested, what flopped. You compress years of trial and error into a single conversation.
Who Gets the Most Out of the Retreat
Owners Who Show Up
This retreat is for owners doing $750K or more who are serious about reaching $8M. The ones who get the most out of it come prepared to be honest, ready to challenge their assumptions, and committed to acting on what they learn. If that’s you, it’s worth the trip.
