ONCE UPON A TIME...

A talented and determined landscaper decided to start his own business. He did great work, had wonderful clients and hired exceptional people. But at the end of the day, he wasn’t making any money. Frustrated and anxious, he didn’t sleep well, spent way more time working than he wanted to, and missed spending time with his family. This was hardly the “happily ever after” he envisioned when he started his business.

Thankfully, this is not the end of the story. But does it sound familiar to you? Painfully familiar?

We understand.

Nextra Consulting was started by Grant and Marla Harrison in order to help other landscape business owners avoid the mistakes, stress, headaches and pain they experienced.

After closing their landscape business (and thereby, saving their sanity and their marriage), Grant spent the next number of years engrossed in learning what makes a business successful. He began sharing that insights and information with business owners and saw the difference it made in their business and their life. And so Nextra Consulting was born.

Nextra Consulting exists to provide navigation, experience and training to landscape business owners. Using Grant’s extensive knowledge, experience, and industry connections and Marla's impressive organization, administrative and baking skills, we seek to reduce the pressure on owners so they can concentrate on what they do best.
