Lawn and landscape jobs slip away while the crew is on the mower and nobody hears the phone. A text back within a minute, a booked estimate and quote follow-up keep them on your route.
What slips away in a lawn care or landscaping company
- Calls on the mower. Nobody hears the phone.
- Estimate requests. By evening, they have asked two other companies. See why the first reply wins.
- Bigger quotes. Beds, sod and irrigation go quiet after the quote.
- The spring rush. Everyone calls the same week.
- The off-season. Nobody checks in, so some never return.
What we would build first
A text-back that books estimates
A missed call gets a text from your number within a minute. It says it is automated, asks what they want and offers real estimate times. See how missed call text back works.
Quote follow-up
A reminder follows every quote for beds, sod or a landscape job. Silence gets one or two check-ins, then it stops.
A CRM with stages that match lawn and landscape work
New request, estimate booked, quoted, won, on the route, paid. Compare tools in best lawn care software for small business. A free or low-cost app covers many solo operators.
Check-ins between seasons
A spring restart text and a fall cleanup offer, sent only to customers who opted in. STOP always works.
A review ask after every finished job
One text with a direct link, sent the same day. Read how to get more Google reviews for the rules.
What should the assistant say about weed control and sprinklers?
Nothing technical. It books the visit and hands it to a licensed person. The Texas Department of Agriculture requires a license to apply any pesticide to lawns, trees or weeds for hire, though fertilizer-only applicators do not need one. TCEQ requires a license to install, repair or service an irrigation system. It never recommends a product or a sprinkler fix.
Marketing that fits lawn care and landscaping
- Google Business Profile. Real yard photos, your service area and review replies. See the profile checklist.
- A phone-first website. Services, neighborhoods and a quick estimate request.
- Meta ads for seasonal work. Spring and fall cleanups and installs. Read what a Meta ads budget buys first.
A seasonal rush, handled
In busy weeks, every missed call still gets a reply. You set how far out it books. When the calendar is full, it offers the next open week or a waitlist.
Who this fits
It fits owner-run lawn and landscape companies where a crew lead answers the phone. If an office person answers within minutes, it is a poor fit.
How pricing works
- First call: free, 15 to 30 minutes.
- Price: set on that call, flat and in writing. A text-back alone is a smaller build. A CRM with routes, booking and a dashboard is larger.
- Monthly: hosting, AI usage, upkeep, updates and support. You own what we build. If we run Meta ads, ad spend is paid to Meta directly.
What it will not do
It does not answer the phone, measure a lot or give chemical or irrigation advice. If a free or low-cost app already covers what you need, we will say so.
