Landscaping Leads
Landscaping leads from a lead site often go to several companies at once, and the lowest bid wins. The ones we produce come from your own website, Google listing and ads: calls and quote requests that are yours alone, counted in booked jobs.

Why bought leads let you down
- The same homeowner asks several companies for a bid, and the cheapest one usually gets it.
- Many are price shoppers who want budget work that isn't worth a crew's morning.
- Some never answer when you call back.
- You pay for every lead, whether or not you win the job.
Residential jobs and commercial contracts
Residential projects
Patios, plantings, cleanups. Homeowners compare photos and reviews, then call a few companies. You win them with project photos, reviews and a quick quote.
Residential maintenance
Weekly mowing and seasonal programs. Smaller tickets, but customers renew every year and often add snow removal.
Commercial maintenance contracts
Property managers and business owners hire by bid, not by search. A page for commercial maintenance and snow, plus a fast quote, gets you on the bid list.
Lawn care leads
Lawn care pays when the stops are close together. So we aim your pages, ads and Google listing at the neighbourhoods where your crews already mow, and the quote form asks for the address and yard size up front. New customers then sit on routes you already drive, and they're easy to offer fertilizing, aeration and fall cleanups.
When the calls come in
- Late winter
- Design and patio projects get planned.
- Spring
- Cleanups and lawn sign-ups arrive all at once.
- Late summer and fall
- Snow contracts get signed.
Your ads follow that calendar, and pause when the crews are full.
Leads you buy vs leads you own
| Bought | Owned | |
|---|---|---|
| Who gets the call | You and the companies bidding against you. | You alone. |
| What you pay for | Every lead, won or lost. | Your plan and your ad budget, while the calls from your listing and reviews cost nothing extra. |
| Whose phone number it is | Often the lead site's. | Yours. |
| When you stop paying | The calls stop that day. | Your website, listing and reviews keep working. |
How we produce yours
A page and ads for each service you sell, your Google listing and reviews, and a text back on every missed call while you're on a job. Google's Local Services Ads, the pay-per-call ads at the very top of the page with the "Google Verified" check mark, can add calls you pay for one at a time. The full setup is on landscaping marketing agency.
