@Michaelfiore In the visual industry we are in, I do feel like it is a benefit for them to see the design.

Customers with the ai designs are ready to buy not just look when they visit and I’m all for that!

@Michaelfiore @adamstatonsmith It’s Dewalt for me. I will say my choice was heavily influenced by how many tools/batteries my dad has that I can supplement my tools with.

@AUBradLaw I am on your side with the Kentucky baseball team canceling the midweek, I think it should be treated as a forfeit and should negatively affect RPI.

Teaching student athletes if you don’t feel like showing up to work it’s ok you don’t have to. #zaciswrong

@CrosbyBaseball why not bring up Tromp? When do we cut losses with Murphy ?

I was talking to someone this morning about the difference between a Botanist and a Horticulturist, but I think this picture explains it better.

Who wants to argue and throw me out of the game today. Rest in peace to the best in baseball #bobbycox

[Brad Law @AUBradLaw]

Managers all over baseball should get tossed today to pay tribute

@Michaelfiore Not buying but SELLING!

One of the things that first pulled me into the plant world as a kid was growing a special cucumber variety with my grandma.

The proceeds from those plants went into a scholarship fund. Years later, we still grow that same variety today, and now I get to help award a yearly scholarship to a local student pursuing agriculture or horticulture.

Pretty cool seeing something that started with one plant come full circle.

@Travis_Junk Luckily I send as many as I can back to the suppliers/warehouse. Usually I can give some away to customers but there is always some that I help magically disappear in the fall. 🔥

Big thank you to jacks!

@Michaelfiore Praying for yall!

My best tips on speaking to a camera that feel timely given timeline discourse:

- The camera isn't judging you, you're judging yourself

- Speak like you're vibing with your best friend

- Vary pace & tone, don't just recite information

- If you're really bad, go do Toastmasters for reps or improv to kill internal self-judgment fast

- If you're boring at all it literally doesn't matter at all what you're saying, no one cares. Fix that first

- It's more like singing a song than giving a speech, the energy is often more important than the substance in that it gets a viewer to keep watching so you can deliver substance

One of the best parts of being a grower + retailer:

We don’t guess what works… we grow with it first.

Then it goes straight to the retail floor.

Working with Jack’s makes that easy—what we trust in production is exactly what we hand to customers.

And this combo basket right here might be my favorite of the year.

This is a blessing! Lined out to the street all day and we are still rolling!

Just because you can operate a lawnmower doesn’t mean you are a qualified landscaper or deserve a landscape discount.

Do you have a discount program for landscapers ?
