Hot dog! And no, we’re not talking about the lawn. This Pro got his entrepreneurial start from none other than a hot dog stand! But, in the midst of winter when all the toppings froze (yikes!), Blake knew this seasonal business wasn’t going to cut it. It was time to jump into something fresh, this time, with the weather on his side. Read more

McDonough Lawn Service

Jeffrey entered the outdoor service industry over 15 years ago, but it was only in 2018 that he decided to go out on his own. That’s where we come in! From our first call with him, we knew (and secretly hoped) he’d become part of the LawnGuru family. He is one of those people that you feel you’ve known forever after just a few minutes of conversation. He’s a skilled landscaper and therefore enjoys adding flowers & mulch to transform a blank canvas Read more

Behind every great lawn, is an even better provider! Our August Provider of the Month, Vincent, has mowed nearly 1,500 lawns with us since 2017. That’s 10.9 MILLION square feet of grass! To put it into perspective, if football fields all had grass, that would be eight years of consistent lawn maintenance at the Big House. While Vincent is a jack of all trades, he says, “nothing will ever beat a quality grass cut.” Read more

Provider Add-Client Feature

LawnGuru is built by providers for providers which is how we try to spot and prevent problems. We share the same problems so it only follows that we should share the same solutions.

When Skye and Brandon were their own two man crew, they never wanted to

decline sales for services that were outside their box and hated tracking down past-due invoices in order to get paid.  Read more

20 / 70 / 10 Overview

Overview: 20 / 70 / 10 Ranking System

20/70/10 is how we view our business, customers & providers. We borrowed this thinking from Jack Welch of GE fame, and it’s essentially Pareto’s principle on steroids. It has proven itself over and over again as an effective way to break up and understand all our users.

2019 Overgrowth Policy Update

Why Make A Change?

Overgrowth was built into our app from the beginning when we were only offering on-demand cuts to customers and had to protect providers from abuse or wasted time (money).

Over the course of 2017 and 2018 mowing seasons, we realized we’d lost more than two thousand recurring customers after an overgrowth charge. TWO THOUSAND! 

We really hadn’t reanalyzed it since 2015, and seeing this outcome and what it could’ve meant for your bottom line we knew we had no choice but to find a better way.

Recurring customers are the foundation upon which we Read more

Provider 911: Bullet Proof Your Business

We had an epiphany this year which we believe is a game-changer for you. Seriously.

In the near-term this is going to put out fires for your business, in the future it will allow you to represent your business as all-capable and unlock revenues you aren’t able to capture today.

If you’re planning a vacation, have a personal emergency, or equipment issues you can now make sure your non-LawnGuru customers are taken care of for you by fellow LawnGuru Pros, profitably. 

How?

By extending our seamless link to encompass provider to provider cooperation, you’ll be able to ensure your customers are always serviced. Individually we accomplish a lot, but with this ability to work together we’re all big, fast and flexible. This is in its infancy but validated from our experience as providers and what we all see in industry facebook groups.

This is version 1.0 and 1.1 is already on the way. For now, we’re calling this “Provider 911”

How it works:

  • You opt-in (email support@lawnguru.co)
  • You give us your customer addresses and the price you can pay for each (ie: you charge $40, you can pay $35) We store this on file so you’ve got your math pre-baked ready for emergencies (or spontaneous trips!)
  • We map the properties, put your payment on file, and keep them ready for you
  • Shit happens or you decide to take a break, you text the DEDICATED PROVIDER 911 NUMBER (734-707-9594) the addresses to activate at the prices you set.
  • We activate those jobs immediately and place them into the marketplace for you
    1. Conversely, you can now pick up jobs and help out your fellow providers
    2. We are taking nothing on these, just credit card processing fees. Yep. We’ve got you.
    3. The price you choose is important, make sure you’re paying enough to get the jobs filled but not losing money.

      4. Read more
