A little update. No cool pictures yet, but we're planning on getting back to work April 1. So far the first two rounds of mailers have worked out ok. Have gotten 25 estimates out of them and landed 4 full service accounts that will be doing our new landscape maintenance packages. Have the third round going out sometime next week which will hopefully produce a lot of phone calls. Also I'm working on two landscape design jobs so this years shaping up pretty good.

That's awesome man! Hope you have a great season!......I'm having a hard time selling the lawn maintenance agreement to my old customers. I only have 2 customers that want to take advantage of it. I didn't do anything as far as advertising this year because of the schedule at the firehouse. Who knows, I might be doing lawns fulltime next year if things keep going the way they are going

Yea not all of my existing customers are going with the packaged deal but I got 4 or my old ones to sign up so far and might have another 2 or 3. I think even the new people get a little scared when they see what the total cost for the year is, even though its close to the same as their previous landscaper. Hopefully a few will still get back to me that I left estimates for last week.
