Columbus, OH – January 24, 2024 – Quality Yard & Home Maintenance, a leading provider of lawn care, landscaping, and other home care services in the Columbus, Ohio metro area, opened early-bird registration for its 2024 Business Leadership Conference today.

The Conference, slated for February 29, runs from 8:30 am to 3:30pm, and includes on-site lunch for all attendees. A snow date is scheduled for March 1.

Entering its fifth year, the day-long Conference offers a day of leadership training, networking, and fun. The conference focuses on helping small contractor-type businesses improve their chances of success and includes two parallel tracks.

Track 1 is intended for business owners, upper management, and leadership teams, and covers topics on “Planning for Growth & Developing Bench Strength,” “Developing and Executing Strategy,” and a Round Table Discussion among attendees.

Track 2 targets supervisors for those small businesses, and their crew members who have “upward potential.” Topics include “Supervision Secrets,” and a “Great Crew Leader” Workshop, and will also include a Round Table Discussion.

Facilitators for the conference are Phil Harwood and Tabetha Varwig from Tamarisk Business Advisors in Grand Rapids, MI. The organization serves as strategic advisors to small businesses, primarily functioning to help increase the value of the business in anticipation of succession or a planned exit.
Jeremy Nestor, Founder and President of Quality Yard & Home Maintenance, said the 2023 conference attracted 110 attendees. With the addition of a second track, Mr. Nestor expects that figure to increase.

“Our goal is to empower crew leaders, supervisors, managers, and business owners by learning how to take ownership, delegate properly, strategize, learn from others, and build a team for growth,” he said.

When asked about his motivation for hosting the conference, Mr. Nestor replied, “We are an active company willing to openly share what has worked and what hasn’t worked for us, and we're always trying to learn from other professionals.” He said networking with attendees at the conference helps him fulfill that mission.

Registration is $125 per attendee during the early bird registration period ending January 31. Companies are encouraged to join the event as a group: five or more attendees pay only $100 each during the early bird period. The individual investment will increase to $150 per attendee on February 1, but will also include a 20 percent discount for groups larger than five.
