Spring is coming. You know what that means—every homeowner and business owner is about to wake up and realize their yard looks like a disaster. The question is: Will they call you or someone else?
Here’s how the top landscapers dominate spring demand before their competitors even realize it’s happening.
1. Book Jobs Before Spring Starts
If you wait until April to start booking jobs, you’re already behind. Smart landscapers use the off-season to lock in clients for spring. How?
- Send out reminders now – past customers need cleanups, mulching, and maintenance. Email them. Call them.
- Pre-sell seasonal packages – offer a discount for booking early. Example: “Sign up for our spring package now and save 10%.”
- Use referrals – ask your best customers to send a friend your way. Give them a small discount if they do.
2. Set Up Smarter Scheduling
Spring is chaos if you’re not prepared. The best businesses run tight schedules.
- Group jobs by location – stop wasting time driving across town.
- Limit service options – focus on what makes you the most money. If mowing wastes your time, upsell mulching, cleanups, and aeration instead.
- Use scheduling software – Jobber, Yardbook, or whatever works. You need efficiency.
3. Sell Easy Upsells
Want to increase your profits? Offer easy add-ons that clients actually want.

Final Tip: Don’t wait. Landscapers who take action now own spring. Everyone else plays catch-up.
