High standards and repeat customers the key to success

Running a landscape business can be extremely difficult. There are so many things to consider.

Your team is an important part of your company. Managing and motivating employees is often the most difficult aspect of any business, and the landscape industry is no exception.

Getting new customers and keeping them are frequently the next most difficult challenges.
Repeat customers, as well as new customers, are critical to a company’s survival and growth.

However, ensuring repeat business through your team is frequently difficult. Customers can leave at the drop of a hat if they have a minor problem. To ensure repeat business, it is critical that your team is switched on and responsive to the standards you know as a business operator work.

How do you ensure that these requirements are met? By making use of an employee handbook. If you want your landscape business to not only survive, but thrive, this tool is a must-have.

3 real breakthrough benefits of an Employee Handbook

As mentioned above, a Landscaping Employee Handbook will improve many areas in your landscape business. One important benefit is that your team will instantly know what is expected of them.

Many landscaping businesses do not operate efficiently because their team have not been told the specifics including the rules and expected level of service delivery.

You must be specific.

Below are 3 real benefits you will see almost immediately when you prepare and mobilize an Employee Handbook in your landscape business.

1. Sets the benchmark for customer service

As you already know, customer service is crucial in any landscape business. Your business revolves around customer service including online reviews.

Achieving 5 star reviews for every single customer should be your goal. If it isn’t, your business will struggle to compete and in the end struggle to survive. Set the standards for your team with a reference tool that communicates specific details.

2. You will be building authentic trust with your customers

A successful landscaping business is all built around trust. Being authentic and building trust is key to ensuring repeat customers which in turn, builds your business in all areas.

Not only do you need to build trust with your customers, so does your team.

3. Stops you repeating yourself

A good friend of mine once told me if you don’t want to repeat yourself, don’t have kids or run a business. How true this is. Implementing an Employee Handbook means you will not have to repeat yourself over and over again. Your team will have a document they can refer to first.

Make sure you always refer to the Employee Handbook when they ask you questions. It must be consistently reviewed and up to date.

Take it seriously and your team will take it seriously.
