How to get more lawn care and gardening clients

A lawn care or gardening business lives on regular clients close together. Ten regular customers on one street beat ten one-off jobs across the city. Your marketing should build dense, repeat rounds.

Build your round

  • Focus on a few suburbs close to home.
  • When you get a new client, flyer the neighbours on both sides and across the road.
  • Offer a small discount for regular fortnightly or monthly service.

Get found online

  • A Business Profile with your service area and plenty of before-and-after photos.
  • Pages for lawn mowing, garden maintenance, hedging, green waste removal and reticulation, if you do it.
  • Clear prices for a standard block, and what changes them.

Keep clients

  1. Turn up on the same day each time.
  2. Send a text the day before.
  3. Offer seasonal extras: fertilising in spring, pruning before winter.
