Most green industry business owners are exceptional at building. You know how to grow a team, manage a season, keep clients, and push through the hard years. What you built is real — and for many of you, it represents decades of sacrifice, discipline, and ingenuity.

But there's a question that tends to get postponed: What happens to the business next?

Not next quarter. Not next season. The bigger next — when you're ready to step back, hand the reins to someone else, or sell what you've spent a lifetime building. That question deserves a real answer. And it deserves to be answered long before circumstances force the conversation.

"The businesses that last aren't just the ones that worked the hardest. They're the ones that were built — intentionally — to endure."

Why we're partnering

At Tamarisk Business Advisors, our work has always been about more than the exit. We specialize in helping business owners protect their legacy — through the structure, leadership, and ownership architecture that ensures what they've built can truly endure. We help our clients build clarity, confidence, and a plan for what comes next.

But over time, we kept seeing the same gap: business owners who had worked hard and grown their companies, yet whose financial foundation wasn't as strong as it needed to be when transition conversations began. Without clean books, clear margins, and a CFO-level understanding of their own business, too many owners found themselves with fewer options at exactly the wrong moment.

That's why we're proud to partner with Cycle CPA.

Cycle CPA is a firm built specifically for the green industry — offering bookkeeping, controller services, and virtual CFO support tailored exclusively to landscape, lawn care, tree care, and related businesses. Founded by people who understand the rhythms of your world, Cycle CPA brings a true business mind to accounting. Their approach — focused on where your business is going, not just where it's been — aligns directly with everything we believe about serving business owners well. Founded by Phil Harwood, Esq., an attorney and seasoned business advisor, and Tabetha Vetter, CEPA, a Certified Exit Planning Advisor, Tamarisk works with privately held businesses at every stage of the ownership journey through the Tamarisk Method™ — combining deep assessment with intentional design: replacing instinct with structure, and assumption with clarity.

What this means for you

Together, Tamarisk Business Advisors and Cycle CPA offer something most advisory relationships don't: a complete picture. Financial health today — and ownership strength for the future.

Whether you're actively planning an exit, thinking about passing your business to the next generation, or simply wondering whether the company could run without you if it had to — this partnership was built with you in mind.

You don't have to navigate these questions alone. And you don't have to wait until the answer is urgent to start looking for it.
