Trends provide opportunities for differentiation in the tree care and green industry 

Do you know how to differentiate a trend from a fad? A macro trend from a micro trend? In this podcast Judith Guido explains how to distinguish trends from a fad and how micro trends in technology, like mobile apps and drones, can help contractors differentiate themselves from the competition. That differentiation can, in turn, help drive your company’s brand awareness, build a positive reputation, generate publicity and increase productivity.

Tell us: based on Judith’s advice, what will you do to differentiate your company from the competition?
