You could run the best lawn care or landscaping company in town... but if your brand looks outdated, confusing, or just plain boring, you’re losing business before the first phone call. In this episode, I’m joined by branding expert John Dalton of McFarland Stanford—someone who's helped rebrand billion-dollar companies like FedEx—to talk about the hidden messages your visual branding is sending (and why it matters more than you think).

We dive into:

  • Why tree icons and old fonts aren’t doing you any favors

  • The simple formula big brands use to create unforgettable impressions

  • How your truck wrap could be accidentally camouflaging your business

  • Practical (and affordable) ways to refresh your brand without rewrapping your whole fleet overnight

If you’ve ever wondered whether your brand is helping or hurting you—or if you've just had that nagging feeling that your 20-year-old logo might be the mullet of marketing—this episode is for you.

Ready to make sure your brand is saying the right thing? Hit play.
