Tim interviews Rick Watkins, owner of Big Buckeye Lawn Care, about the significant professional and personal setbacks he has recently faced. Watkins explains that his landscape construction business failed due to a dissolved partnership and mounting financial losses from unpaid client accounts, forcing him to liquidate his assets and close the company. This professional upheaval inadvertently provided the necessary time for Watkins to address physical ailments resulting from years of hard labor, necessitating extensive surgery on his shoulder and elbow.
Both Allard and Watkins share stories of past business failures, stressing the importance of viewing these incidents as setups for future success rather than outright failure. Ultimately, the conversation highlights the profound support and genuine connection they have found within the green industry community through professional networking events. Watkins concludes by actively seeking new opportunities in sales, product representation, or even a return to medicine within the Northeast Ohio region.
