The problem

Why lawn care marketing usually stalls

Lawn care runs on a season that never stops moving. Spring fertilization, summer mowing routes, and fall cleanups all compete for the same crews. The companies that grow plan their marketing around that calendar instead of reacting to it.

We build that system: high-intent search campaigns for the services your routes need, Local Services Ads with the Google Guaranteed badge, and local SEO that keeps you in the map pack across every town you serve.

Every lead is exclusive and tracked. You see call recordings, form fills, and cost per booked route, so you always know what your marketing is producing.

FAQ

lawn care marketing FAQ

What is lawn care marketing?

Lawn care marketing is the system that puts your company in front of homeowners searching for mowing, fertilization, and cleanup services, then turns that attention into signed routes and recurring plans. Done properly it combines paid search, Local Services Ads, local SEO, a converting website, and fast follow-up.

How much does this cost?

Management packages start at $1,750 per month, with ad spend paid separately to the platforms. Tiered plans run $1,750, $2,500, or $4,250 per month depending on how much of your marketing we handle.

How fast can lawn care ads produce leads?

Paid search and Local Services Ads typically produce leads within the first week of launch, which matters when the season opens. Local SEO compounds over three to six months and lowers your blended cost per lead.

Are the leads exclusive?

Yes. Every lead is generated in your own ad and search accounts and goes only to you. We never resell or share a contact with a competitor in your market.

Can you help sell recurring contracts?

Yes. We run campaigns and follow-up sequences designed to convert one-time quotes into weekly, biweekly, and seasonal service agreements, which is where lawn care margins live.

Do I own the leads and accounts?

Yes. Website, ad accounts, CRM, and every lead record are yours, on a month-to-month agreement with no long-term contract.
