Summary
This is a big one. We officially launched three crews for the first time ever, and I'm breaking down what that really looks like behind the scenes. From lining up enough work and managing new expenses, to handling delays, sick days, and the investment into trucks and equipment, this episode is all about real growth in real time. If you're pushing to level up your business, this will give you a clear picture of what it takes and how to make the jump with confidence.

| 0:21.6 | Hey, what's going on, guys? Welcome to another episode of the Fullerton Unfiltered Podcast. |
| 0:26.4 | It is your host, Brian Fullerton here. Hang in with you guys, good morning. |
| 0:30.5 | Today, I want to talk about an exciting new chapter in Brian's lawn maintenance, something that we've |
| 0:35.9 | been working towards and looking forward |

| 1:36.8 | navigate these as well, my gosh, shoot me a DM because I'd love to hear what's working |
| 1:40.5 | for you guys out there as you guys have multiple crews, multiple setups, and a lot of great stuff going on. First things first, before we do, |
