Bryan Clayton is CEO and co-founder of GreenPal an online marketplace that connects homeowners with local lawn care professionals. GreenPal has been called the “Uber for lawn care” by Entrepreneur magazine and has over 200,000 active users completing thousands of transactions per day.

 

Before starting GreenPal Bryan Clayton founded Peachtree Inc. one of the largest landscaping companies in the state of Tennessee growing it to over $10 million a year in annual revenue before it was acquired by Lusa holdings in 2013.

 

Bryan‘s interest and expertise are related to entrepreneurialism, small business growth, marketing and bootstrapping businesses from zero revenue to profitability and exit.

 

In this episode, Bryan and I discuss his journey from teenage lawn mowing hustle to exiting from that company. Once he realized that money and material possessions weren't everything, he jumped back in the entrepreneurship game. We talk about the mindset entrepreneurs need to have to profitable scale and sell their businesses.
