We’re In Q3 — How Are Your 2025 Goals Holding Up?
Now that we’ve officially entered Q3… I’m checking in: • Are you where you thought you’d be by this point in the year? • What worked well in the first half? • And what needs to be tweaked so you don’t coast through summer? For us, we’re doubling down on and been using this visual from our Blueprint Series to stay focused each quarter: Would love to hear from others: What’s one change you’re making to finish Q3 strong?2Views0likes0CommentsPricing Advice & Client Management Tips for New Landscaper
Hi everyone, I’m fairly new to landscaping and trying to get a better handle on pricing my work and managing clients. Right now, I mostly check local prices and try to go a bit cheaper, but I’m still confused about charging per hour versus per job. For example, sometimes a job might be tougher but I get it done faster because of experience or efficiency. If I charge hourly, I worry I might be punishing myself by charging less for harder work done quickly. So I usually price per job and just guesstimate a fair rate. I’d love advice on how you set prices fairly and consistently. Also, what tools or software do you use to manage your clients and jobs? Are there any good free or low-cost options for someone just starting out? Any tips regarding profit, couting in gas, time, etc I'd love to hear thanks so much! I’m based in Lima, OH, if that matters for local pricing tips. Thanks so much in advance!53Views1like3CommentsQuestion

I need help with identifying the best financial software that integrates with Jobber and how to set it up effectively. I currently have Jobber, QuickBooks, and Gusto (payroll). I want Jobber and QuickBooks to integrate effectively and be streamlined so I can track revenue and expenses per job. I want to job cost every job separately and haven't figured out how to do this effectively outside a spreadsheet. I feel like one of the software out there should be able to handle this, im assuming I just don't know how to get it to work on Quickbooks. Also for my business, we have some expenses like quote percents and marketing percents that get taken out after wages so I need freedom to add these types of things to each job. Let me know if you have any advice, comment on what software you use, or ideas on how to get this to work best. Thanks23Views1like0CommentsComparing Suppliers

We use enhancify. We considered Wisetack. However, we require down payments and don't like that payment gets released after work gets completed. We stumbled across Acorn and saw they integrate with HouseCall Pro. On their quotes, they offer a monthly finance rate the customer could get if they used Acorn (estimated rate of course). Is this a possible integration in the future, or is there something similar? tia291Views2likes5Comments
