Greg Wittstock, The Pond Guy Pondcasts

Did We Agree or Disagree 🤔

In 2024, I flew into Vegas for the day to check out the first All American Koi Show. I was impressed. I met the founder, Hector Mardueno, who had the basic misperceptions about Aquascape (you have to be exclusive to buy from you guys 🙄) that so many non CAC’s have.

I invited him to attend my Standard Academy and much to my surprise he did!

Hear what the Founder has to say about his experience at the Aquascape Academy and learn why he’s bringing the Founder of Maru Koi Magazine back with him next month!

Greg Wittstock's ubiquitous influence on his tribe and the pond industry at large are synonymous with his well known, tested, and often heard phrases, “Work on your business, and not in it”,“All business is, is fixing problems”, “Ponds Done Right-Customers Served Right”.

On this episode of The PondcastGreg chats with Peter Woytowich, owner of Premier Ponds of Madison CT. As an early and successful retailer of Aquascape, Peter might be the longest tenured non-CAC contractor who after 26 years became a CAC! Like the proverbial pebble tossed into a pond, Peter's Company has maintained a continual arc of professional success.

Peter exemplifies this "stick-to-the-system" attitude that has fueled his steady growth and rippling effect, growing a profitable business over the last twenty-five years with the core lessons he learned from Greg when they first met back in 1999 on a build-a-pond project in Chicago. A very uplifting message of staying true to your path, sticking to the script, and always continuing learning!

FoxTerra will be at Pondemonium!!!

The Premiere Landscape Design Firm in North America will be at Pondemonium! Better yet, they’ve now come to view “living water” as a premium to man made.

How Justin and his TEAM only recently arrived at this conclusion makes for a great Pondcast!
