    After your consulting session, I clearly see and feel the following facts: we have a deeper understanding of our own management and owners' involvement. Our everyday stress level has lowered. More confidence in strategy and decision making. We became way better leaders, and our team is a lot more motivated, seeing our goals clearly.

    Our company engaged George to help us implement LMN Software for our business. He especially helped us understand our costs and was crucial to setting up amazing estimating templates for pools, landscapes and maintenance. At the same time he helped us restructure our priorities for improvement. Our company runs so much better now… more responsive, attentive, and thoughtful. Looking forward to working with him more! He is a wealth of knowledge.

    It is unbelievable in hindsight how far our business has come since working with George. He is always available for advice, and thoughtfully presents the pro’s and con’s of any big decision. He taught me how to take the emotion out of a situation, analyze ONLY the facts and make a decision. We look forward to working with George again.

    George helped us get over the hump to make the big decisions we need to make to get to the next level, without adding lots of people. He would remind us, “if it does not put you out of business and the downside risk is low, then try it.” – Ironically George is cautious. All about improving the bottom line before the top line. The how to do it is so clear for us now. We look forward to working with him as we grow, and would recommend him highly to our peers.

    Contacting George put us on the right track from day one, and with his help, our company was able to hit our annual sales goals in the first 6 months! Best decision ever. We are lucky to have found a George, and had the good fortune to work with him. We recommend him highly.

    George has been offering Earthscape consulting services over the past 8 years. In that time, his guidance has helped us grow over 300%, while making our business run more smoothly. I personally have worked less hours every year over the past 4 years, and this has been in part due to George's business advice.

    George was very attentive and listened to our concerns. He brought many things to our attention on how it should be billed in our business, and therefore ensuring it was costed properly, resulting in us saving money. He had some good tips on how we could organize our garage/shop/yard better as well, making it more efficient.
