RING THE BELL SPOTLIGHT PLEASANT LANDSCAPES
At Ramblin Jackson, we’ve always celebrated our clients’ incredible achievements, and today, we’re thrilled to spotlight Kelly Slater, the newly appointed CEO of Pleasant Landscapes. Kelly’s journey with Pleasant Landscapes spans over 15 years, during which her vision and leadership have been instrumental in shaping the company’s growth and unwavering dedication to exceptional customer service. As a finalist for the Landscape Leader of the Year, it’s no surprise Kelly has elevated the company and come so far. In her new role, Kelly is leading Pleasant Landscapes into an exciting new chapter marked by innovation and a deeply rooted commitment to its employees. One of the most transformative changes under her leadership is the company’s shift to employee ownership. “It’s incredibly rewarding to know that our people who helped build Pleasant Landscapes will have a stake in its future,” Kelly shared. Through
an employee stock option program, team members earn stock shares after five years of full-time employment. As a result, she’s building a sense of ownership and investment at every level. Beyond employee ownership, Kelly’s vision includes constructing multi-tiered leadership teams that empower emerging leaders and inspire initiative. “Our goal is to foster excitement and ownership at every level,” she explained. Her approach redefines leadership by focusing on inspiration rather than traditional management, ensuring all 56 employees see themselves as vital contributors to the company’s mission. Pleasant Landscapes, a Charleston institution since 1991, continues to set new industry standards. The company is expanding its design-build and maintenance services while integrating AI tools to streamline operations and enhance customer experiences. Kelly’s innovative efforts have earned her industry
recognition, including a finalist position for Landscape Leader of the Year!
As a local business, Pleasant Landscapes exemplifies community-focused values. The company’s ongoing support for Lowcountry Orphan Relief is a testament to its dedication to giving back, providing time, resources, and funds to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children in need. At Ramblin Jackson, we’ve been fortunate to support Pleasant Landscapes and witness their journey firsthand. Kelly’s leadership is inspiring, and we’re excited to continue partnering with Pleasant Landscapes as they grow and redefine what it means to be a leader in the landscaping industry. Congratulations, Kelly, on this well‑deserved milestone!
THE FUTURE OF PRODUCTIVITY IS HERE AI THAT HELPS YOU PLAN, CREATE, AND THRIVE
Turn philosophies into productivity. To get even more personalized suggestions, you can teach your AI assistant about the philosophies, beliefs, and books that drive and inspire you. Next time you pick up a book or think about a mantra that moves you, record your thoughts using the app. Your digital assistant will consider that information and provide specific insights when you ask for daily to-dos or check in on your progress.
Have you ever wished you had a personal assistant to help you stay on track and organize your life? Thanks to the latest in AI, you can have a sidekick in your pocket who knows all your long-term goals. Voice Notes AI is a handy app that allows you to record notes on anything from your stray thoughts, to-do lists, or ideas. It’s not just about giving you reminders — it’s a powerhouse for organizing your day, managing tasks, and even helping you brainstorm ideas.
Pencil in your perfect day. Voice Notes AI is an intelligent way to plan your day and the tasks you need to complete. It will ensure you’re always in alignment with your long-term goals. Record your priorities, what you want to accomplish, and details about your life. Then, start your morning by asking your AI assistant to provide a plan for the day and give tips on what would help you get closer to your goals. The app then pulls information from your recordings and cross-references it with your calendar to create customized daily lists.
Upgrade to You 2.0. Your AI assistant can teach you about yourself and help you develop better habits. Once you have added several recordings to the app, ask it for a personality analysis as a fun way to learn how you think. You can also ask it to help you create an effective wind-down routine at the end of the day to help you for the rest of the week. Try making a “worry box” where you record concerns and ask your assistant to give suggestions on overcoming them.
