In addition to running his landscape company, Salcido also purchased a mechanic and hot rod shop, as well as coaching other businesses.

“I am super excited to pass on my knowledge to other business professionals, so you can hopefully bypass a lot of the headache and heartache that I went through,” he said. “I want you to learn from my mistakes and push your business forward, further, faster.”
