Graeme Mann - Landscape Juice featured member - LJN Blog Posts

A good network is only as good as its members; now with over 1,100, the Landscape juice Network's success relies on the wealth of information and experience that is added by members. Surveys suggest that only 1% of any social group are creators and actively add new content at any one time, whilst a further 9% adopt an editing or modifying role; the remaining 90% are lurkers and readers it's called 90-9-1 principle. One member who is very much in the 1% bracket is Graeme Mann of The BGS Group - Graeme's deep knowledge and passion for his profession readily shines through; he always has time to stop and help fellow maintenance and landscaping practitioners, either with a link to useful information or from the deep reservoir of his knowledge, accumulated over many years in horticulture and turf management. Graeme's background is accounting and this has proved to be a valuable resource, shared with fellow members on LJN - it's sometimes a thankless task being in the one percent bracket but Graeme carries it off with good grace and is a much valued member of the Landscape Juice Network. The BGS Group carries out domestic and commercial lawn, garden and estate maintenance around Berkshire, Hampshire, Surrey.

Great idea Phil and a great first endorsement in Graeme Mann - he phoned me out of the blue in December last year to help me with some artificial lawn advice and spent around 45 minutes explaining what my options were; he then remained in contact by email offering further advice and answering my questions - a great guy!!

Well done Graeme!
