Marc Wiener has been in landscape architecture for the last 24 years. He wants to offer a completely unique service to Long Island and his clients: a landscaping company that designs, maintains and even offers pest control so residents can take full advantage of the backyards constructing. He&rsquo;s been running his company, ALM Site Design, since 1999. He recently acquired his third <a href="http://mosquitojoefranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=franchisee-voices-marc-wiener-of-mosquito-joe-8697" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mosquito Joe</a> territory and intends to take his business all across the North Shore.

Tell us a little bit about your background.

I&rsquo;ve spent the last 24 years in the landscape architecture industry and I&rsquo;ve been a volunteer fireman for the last 15 years in the Commack Fire District. I have some experience investing in other companies and their products, including GLT (Green Living Tech), a company that grows medicinal cannabis through a unique vertical growing system. I was very much involved and we were growing for several pharmaceutical companies in the area. This was back in 2013. During this time, I was also running my own business day-to-day as a director of sales and construction in landscape architecture for my company ALM Site Design which I&rsquo;ve been running since 1999. And now I&rsquo;m onto <a href="http://mosquitojoe.1851franchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=franchisee-voices-marc-wiener-of-mosquito-joe-8697" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Mosquito Joe</a>.

I have a degree in landscape architecture from Syracuse University and another degree in forestry from my local State University of New York.

Why did you choose to become a franchisee with Mosquito Joe? How did you learn about the brand?

For about two-and-a-half years, I was looking for the right fit for me. My main goal is to become an absentee owner in the next five years. It&rsquo;s just a great business model. I&rsquo;m very familiar with landscaping and the backyards here in town and it will complement what I do. People are spending a lot of money on their backyards but they can&rsquo;t enjoy them around here. I run ALM Site Design, and have since 1999. How many landscaping/design places can offer maintenance and a service like Mosquito Joe? This is another level of service I can provide after my design.

I&rsquo;ve been doing this since the &lsquo;80s and I&rsquo;m not afraid to get my hands dirty.

What&rsquo;s next for you and your business? Do you have any development/expansion plans with the brand?

I want to own the Gulf Coast of Long Island and the entire North Shore. I just acquired a third territory a couple of weeks ago.&nbsp;
