182: Why Moore Green is a Great Place to Work

<p>We love working with business owners who are dedicated to creating “Great Places to Work.” They are committed to creating opportunities for their team members and giving back to their communities. Today’s spotlight shines on a living, breathing example of that commitment!</p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Blake Moore began working in the family lawn fertilizer business when he was 11 years old. While he enjoyed working outside and being with friends and family, he wasn’t sure lawn care was his future. While pursuing an accounting degree in college, he entered the horticulture program and found his passion. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At age 32, with his wife expecting their third child, he left the family business and began his own venture. Since that time, Blake has gone from a “solopreneur” who wore all the hats to a business leader who strives to find opportunities for the team members to grow and develop. Through teaching and coaching team members, Blake has found an unexpected joy in business. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Losing his wife to cancer, Blake became a widower, which helped him realize that work supports life and not the other way around. Blake has since remarried, is happier than ever, and is proud of his combined family of eight children. He has served as a board member of the Utah Pest Control and Lawn Care Association for more than twenty years, actively serves in church callings and loves to travel with his wife. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Join us to learn why Moore Green is a great place to work!</span></p> <p><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Profit by Design is a Tap the Potential Production in collaboration with Small Business Consulting Group. </span></em></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Show Highlights:</strong></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Finding the time to run a business, live life to the fullest, and focus on creating relationships with customers</span></li> <li styl
