Client Success Stories

Gerard and Nick L.

Owners of Above and Beyond Lawn

Starting a lawn care business was a big leap for us, but Mike and Patty's program made it feel achievable. They helped us create a plan, build a solid foundation, and understand how to work together as partners without stepping on each other’s toes. Thanks to their support, we’ve grown Above and Beyond Lawn into a business we’re proud of—and our partnership has never been stronger!

Dan and Chelsea H.

Owners of Blue Chip Pool Service

Starting a pool business felt like diving into the deep end without knowing how to swim. Mike and Patty's program was like having a lifeguard by our side! They showed us how to turn our passion for creating backyard escapes into a thriving company. From setting clear roles to managing finances, their advice was invaluable. Now, we’re not just running a successful business—we’re doing it together with less stress and more joy!"
