Talk About Diversification:Pennsylvania entrepreneur adds landscape services to her rental busi

摘要

In Michelle L. O'Donnell's mind, it's simple: Bigger is not better. She says that her southeastern Pa.-based company, 82 Rents and Services, Inc., does not benchmark others. It benchmarks itself."If we're making money and our employees are happy and our customers are happy, that's all I need," says O'Donnell. "That's what every business should be about, making sure all your employees have jobs. Knock on wood (and she does), we've stayed the course. If you're grounded and you know your direction and have a plan to stay on course, you're fine. You can't be all things to all people."
