Save the Date for Tuesday’s Miniature Gardening WebinarBy Abby (Kleckler) McGarry

Earlier this week a reader posted on the Lawn & Garden Retailer Facebook page that with the kids off to school, she finally has a chance to sit back and catch up on industry news.

I can’t imagine she’s alone! There’s no better time than now to take a break from the day-to-day and evaluate your business.

Start next Tuesday, Sep. 22, at 2 p.m. (ET), with a free, 30-minute webinar on “Maximizing Miniature Gardening.” Mary Palmer Dargan, owner of Dargan Landscape Architects in Atlanta, Georgia, will talk about both miniature plants and hard goods. From containers to landscapes, customers are embracing miniature gardening during all seasons, and Dargan has what you need to turn this category into a profitable undertaking.

Register now; you won’t want to miss it.

Just Keep Running

Have you heard of Jon Gordon? In a recent meeting a colleague brought up the name, and I, of course, had to Google him. I found that not only is he a motivational speaker and best-selling author, but he’s also a great storyteller.

Check out this story (it’s a video) about how as a positive leader you have such an impact on your team. I think you’ll enjoy it. I did.

Cheers,

Abby
