Our valued ethics have paid off, too, because we have recently had a major local plant and gardening store choose us to use as their landscape-installation contractor. We now get tons of business with the marketing paid for only by our actions.

I like your philosophy, “we decided to market our landscape company as a family-owned business that always shows up on time and completes the job.” What you did (and continue to do) is “walk your talk”. In the world of contractors and sub contractors, it’s so easy to get lost, but when you outshine the completion by showing up and completing a job to your customer’s satisfaction, even in tough times, yours will often be the first phone to ring.

Great job! Great way to build referral business!
