From Service Titan to Aspire: Eli Zevin’s Playbook for Growth

This week on Trades Talk, host Justin White sits down with Eli Zevin, General Manager of Aspire Software, to explore the power of technology, implementation strategy, and what is coming next for the landscape industry.

Eli joined Service Titan in 2016 with no background in trades or software and spent nearly a decade helping contractors succeed before taking on his new role at Aspire. From startup culture to scaling enterprise systems, Eli shares what he learned about change management, software adoption, and the importance of delivering real value during implementation.

In this episode, Eli shares: • How early startup culture at Service Titan shaped his leadership style • Why great software implementations focus on outcomes, not checklists • How Aspire is helping contractors track labor variance and upsell opportunities • What role software plays in supporting mergers and acquisitions • Why the green industry is poised for massive professional growth and wealth creation

Eli also shares a preview of what to expect at the upcoming Ignite conference in Anaheim, where Aspire will dive deeper into its product roadmap and how it plans to support the evolving needs of the industry. If you are looking to scale your systems, improve processes, or understand the next evolution of business technology in landscaping, this conversation is a must listen.
