Who is our guest?
"Bryan Clayton isn’t your typical CEO – he’s a true innovator in the lawn care industry.
As the founder and CEO of GreenPal, often called the ""Uber for lawn care"" by Entrepreneur magazine, Bryan has completely transformed how homeowners find and hire local lawn care pros.
Today, over 300,000 people rely on GreenPal, with thousands of lawn care transactions happening every day. It's all thanks to Bryan’s deep understanding of the market and his ability to meet customer needs in fresh, new ways.
But GreenPal is far from Bryan's first success. Before GreenPal, he built Peachtree Inc. into one of Tennessee’s top landscaping companies, driving it to over $10 million in annual revenue before selling it to Lusa Holdings in 2013."
