Greg Herring

You have done the hard work. Starting the company. Employing people. Building the customer base. The question is whether you are getting the reward. I created The Herring Group for two reasons: one, I saw a need in the landscape industry for financial leadership. And two, I have a passion for restoring life margin to business owners and helping people live well. My passion for growing businesses grew significantly when I witnessed the results of the absence of business formation in the DR Congo. From my time in the DR Congo and my time with clients, I am humbled by the risks that business owners embrace. I am inspired to help them build businesses that support their communities and make life on earth a little more like life in heaven. I have served as a CFO for both public and private companies and have significant experience in the landscape industry. In my work life, I enjoy hiring smart, down-to-earth financial leaders – meaning that they are more than just data producers. Our team at The Herring Group takes a seat at the leadership table, with a CFO-level lens and an operational mindset. We're constantly on the lookout for ways to improve your business and create positive cultural shifts, all while empowering owners to make more informed business decisions with greater confidence. This gives growing companies a competitive advantage and the courage to create real change. If you haven't guessed, I'm also a data nerd. I love scouring the numbers, looking for the story. I think that data only gets you so far, in that if it's not relevant, interesting or actionable, then it's not working FOR you. We help turn your data into smart information and action. We have also created a trusted source for industry financial data, The Herring Group Benchmark Report.

You can also find my writing on our blog at http://herring-group.com When I'm not working, I enjoy my idea of life margin – spending time with my wife and three kids, bike riding and being involved in my church and work in Africa. I know you work hard, too. And it’s one of my greatest joys to see you get your reward. Let's get to know each other and see if we're a good fit.
