"What's your 2026 Business Goal?" Jobber Summit Travel Giveaway

Our goal is to grow beyond owners/operators and have enough work to hire some employees this year. We are currently updating our website, inquiring about networking groups to join, and updating marketing materials. We have a desire to offer more design+build services in the landscaping/hardscaping space. We are based out of Minneapolis, MN. We also need to figure out more streams of revenue for the 5 months of winter, instead of just snow plowing, in order to retain employees year-round. Big goals for 2026-2027!

Lawn and landscape company (also run a holiday lighting company) 2026 Goals: No particular order

• tighten up my routes. (specific marketing, more disciplined in doing 5 arounds, say NO way more, push for referrals with a bonus for same neighborhood)...any other ideas send them my way
• revenue goal hit 250k (lawn care only...lighting the goal is 300k) so basically double. with better routes that is very very possible as wed thur routes which are much tighter than mon tue...if i can replicate that on mon/tue i would be just about there.
• more consistent marketing and sales. don't wait till its time for the seasonal work to push it. goal is to start 6 weeks prior to go time
• for premium add on services. price for profit. (made money...but honestly not sure if the headache was worth the squeeze. better marketing would have helped as some of those services super seasonal, but the routing sucked as i was driving all around leave one are then get a call to go back. one service in particular, if i had them all lined up from the beginning i could have literally did them in half the time. less rental time, less drive time. charge the same but a proper profit margin)

Our landscaping cooperative's goals for 2026 include getting our marketing strategy formalized and put into motion and building up our savings!

I just started my business this month after years as a real estate agent and seeing a big hole that needed to be filled in that industry. A reliable, trustworthy handyman who can show up to a property quickly and give a clean, line-by-line quote for the items that need fixed or replaced and, if requested, have the issues repaired in a timely manner so to not jeopardize the transaction. As a real estate agent, I realized how difficult it was to find someone willing to do this and have the quote returned quickly. 

Now onto the goals.

Q1 Goals: -Stay consistent with marketing, -Track every job, -Track time on site, -Track drive time, -Track Admin time, -track hourly effective rate. These are important goals because I've never done them. This will build the foundation of where I am and where I should set my goals. That being said, I do have some goals in mind already. 1. 9am-5pm M-F only (I'm willing to make some exceptions for good clients in an emergency). While we all need to work, losing quality time with my family and friends shouldn't happen. 2. Tighten my service radius. I'm doing smaller jobs that are too far away because I'm a new business and am hungry for work. The last job I did I had an effective labor rate of $44/hour before expenses. Simply not enough for before expenses. This this goal is 10 jobs within 20 minutes of my house (office). Of those 10 jobs, I'd like to obtain a 50% review rate. As for a Q1 dollar amount, I'm shooting for $9k-$11k. 

Q2 Goals: 1. Revenue Target: $24k-$30k. 2. 30+ total reviews. 3. 4 total realtor relationships (that are producing at least 2 jobs per month). 5. Be one week booked out (other than the time I've set aside for realtor quote jobs). 

Q3 Goals: 1. Revenue Target: $30k-$36k. 2. Increase minimum service call if demand supports it. 3. Maintain 50%+ net margin. 4. 60+ total reviews. 5. 30% of jobs from repeat/referrals. 6. Be consistently booked 1-2 weeks out. 

Q4 Goals: 1. Revenue Target: $30k-$40k. 2. 100+ Total Reviews. 3. 40% of jobs from repeat/referrals. 4. Realtors sending me steady small repair work. 5. Be in a place where I need to decide if I'm going to stay a 1 person business or add part-time help for 2027 scale. 

All of that aside, here is a TLDR simplified:

-I want to be averaging $7,500 per month by June 30. 

-Work 4-5 job days per week (no more)

-by the end of the year, be booked out consistently for 1-2 weeks

We are an HVAC and electrical company that has been using Jobber for a few years, but we are NOT utilizing it to the potential it has. For 2026, we need to do more marketing and going after new business and want to figure out how to have Jobber help us with this!

My goal for this year is to use Jobber and scale up my handyman/junk removal business to at least six figures. I just started the business at the end of 2025 and can’t wait to see how far we can go with the help of Jobber!

Jumping into a full rebrand and amalgamation of 3 of our 5 companies. Also ramping up and getting more techs so we can reach our financial goals and expand our brand! :)

This may be something that's new, but Jobber has asked us the question and heard our response's. Send the question right back at the company we all use and love, so WHAT IS JOBBER'S 2026 BUISNESS GOAL?

Tightening our systems so the business runs smoothly, building a strong and loyal team, positioning ourselves as the premium go-to cleaning company in Colorado Springs, and focusing on profit over chaos. We’re working smarter, not harder...creating stability, raising the standard, and building a company that grows without burning out the boss. 💪🧼

Being a tree care company in Southwest Florida, 2025 was spent wrapping up 2024's hurricane damage and a lot of preventative maintenance during the Summer.

We have expanded our consulting to include tree inventories, provide more PHC, and offering multiple services within our maintenance contracts to help strengthen our recurring revenue. We are excited for 2026 and looking forward to it's lessons.
