If you didnt know it already or you need a reminder on why your landscaping bill is worth it, heres a list of five reasons why hiring a commercial landscaper is an absolute must for the average business owner.
Never underestimate the power of a first impression. Your customers first impression of your company begins way before you sit down with them face-to-face it starts the moment they step out of the car. Whether its fair or not, the appearance of your property on the outside is a direct reflection of the work that happens on the inside.
Having a neatly trimmed and raked lawn, pruned shrubs, and clear walkways will add to the communitys property value while also helping you stay competitive with other local businesses.
Thats where your professional landscapers come in. A landscaping company will keep your property looking sleek and manicured year-round, thereby ensuring your clienteles first assessment of your professional ability is a positive one. Simply put, the number one reason why hiring a commercial landscaper is essential is because your business first impression
Landscapers are good at what they do. You may have a green thumb, but a seasoned landscaper has expert knowledge of plant life cycles and treatment strategies, combined with years of training and experience in applying them.
Business owners, especially of restaurants, hotels, and spas, invest hundreds of dollars into flowers every summer to create an oasis for their clients. These business owners know the value of outdoor aesthetic, but even they have suffered financial loss by selecting flowers that cant withstand the sun exposure or environment they are planted in. Choosing the wrong plants will lead to them drying up and dying prematurely. Reinvesting in landscaping is costly and avoidable, simply call a professional landscaper the first time.
Landscaping is much more than watering and weeding. A professional technician knows the best time of year to prune trees to facilitate growth and the best fertilization techniques to encourage lawn health. They know the why, when, how, and how much that someone with a knack for gardening just cant match.
Whats more, professional landscapers often develop a keen eye for property design. Their expert observations and advice will help match the aesthetic of your property with your company values. They can even spruce up your storefront for a special occasion. A few shrubs here, a splash of colorful flowers there youd be surprised at the difference a well-designed landscape can make.
The third cost-saving advantage of hiring a professional landscaper is one that often flies under the radar. When youve outsourced your landscaping maintenance tasks, you dont have to pay for the many products and tools that regular lawn upkeep requires. Businessowners sometimes scoff at this suggestion, thinking the price of a few tools from the local hardware shop are a small drop in the bucket on the financial books.
What they dont realize is that the cost of upkeep is far more extensive than owning a rake and a hose. Yes, if you did your landscaping yourself, youd probably need a rake and a hose. But youd also require a lawnmower, a weedwhacker, shovels, wheelbarrows, ladders, pruning sheers, bags of fertilizer, pesticides, and much, much more. A landscaping company will already have all of these materials, so that you can rake in those extra savings and put them to better use elsewhere.
As an added bonus, a professional landscaping team probably uses high-end, premium products too. What youd buy over the counter at your local department store is no match for high-quality and extremely effective commercial equipment.
A more obvious benefit to hiring a landscaper is the time youll save. An hour here and an hour there doing property maintenance on your own quickly adds up to lost time, lost productivity, and ultimately lost profits.
Instead of you or your employees breaking their back with hard outdoor labor, hire a large working crew that uses efficient and time-tested strategies to care for your lawn. The experienced team of workers will always out-perform you and your employees. Theyll do a better job, and take less time to do it too.
Business owners that own larger properties with many plants and trees should take heed to the final and fifth reason why hiring a landscaper is a good idea. That is, the fact that professional landscaping services have long-term safety benefits. Nature is wild, after all. Trees are prone to disease. Gardens are preferred havens for mice and insects. Not only are landscapers trained to handle these issues when theyre already a problem, but a technician that comes regularly will be able to detect their warning signs ahead of time.
Theyll notice and cut weak tree branches before they fall. Theyll catch nasty pest infestations at the beginning stages while theyre still treatable. Some companies even offer snow removal services throughout the winter. The snow removal services of a commercial landscaper will keep your propertys pathways and parking lots clear and safe. The bottom line is, the preventative care actions of a prudent landscaper can save you a pretty penny or two in safety and liability.
Commercial landscaping will save your company precious time and hard-earned money. Be one step ahead of your competition by having the best first impression. Its time property maintenance is seen for what it is a valuable business investment. Call Cherry Oak Landscaping to trim your business agenda and grow your profits today!

When I prune, I not only cut away dead stuff, but I sometimes also cut away healthy stuff. That may seem counterintuitive, but intentional pruning allows a gardener to control the direction of growth. By sometimes cutting away healthy stuff, I am able to encourage growth in a desired direction and stop growth in an undesired direction in an effort to get a desired resultthe 2.0 or 10X version of the plant.
Ive been meditating over this idea of PRUNING over the last few days. God has been showing me how this idea of PRUNING can be applied to all areas of my life, not just my garden.
To give you a better understanding of the timing of this writing, we are 6 months in to the COVID-19 experience and at the beginning of a world movement for equality, with an emphasis on the black community after the tragic death of George Floyd.
As I contemplate the concept of pruning, I also filter it through some core beliefs like
When pruning my plants, I must start with the end in mind. Where should the growth stop, where should the grow start and what direction should it go? What do I want the plant to look like in the end? What needs to be removed so it can bear healthier fruit? Is there dead weight? What is my desired end result? I must take into consideration all of these questions before making that first cut.
With everything going on, I have been asking myself how do I want to come out of this experience? What do I want to learn from it? What is it teaching me about myself? What fruit do I want to bear as a result of it? Andthis is where it gets uncomfortable sometimeswhat needs to be pruned away so that I can grow into a healthier, more vibrant, fruitful version of me? As a Christian, I must go to the original personal development book, the Bible.
1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes a so that it will be even more fruitful. John 15: 1-2 (NIV)
Weve already experienced some fruit as a result of circumstantial pruning. My husband and I have learned through this time of social distancing that by pruning away eating out and random shopping, we have an abundance of financial resources to put to other uses. If Im seeing fruit from unintentional pruning, think about the effects of intentional pruning? What else do I need to prune out of my life, partially or entirely, to get better or different results/ fruit?
In the past, we pruned our television cable subscription from our lives so that we could have the financial resources to eat healthier and get desired results with our health and bodies. Before that, we uprooted our lives from the place of my birth and replanted miles away so we could have a fresh start as a family.
More recently, Ive taken a deep dive into my subconscious belief system to see what needs to be pruned there for my life to produce better fruit.
Hard stuffright? Those shears can be sharp!
And, what is the ultimate fruit that I am supposed to produce?
5 I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 This is to my Fathers glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. 9 As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Fathers commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. 12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down ones life for ones friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command 17 This is my command: Love each other. John 15: 5-14, 17 (NIV)
What is my ultimate desired result of intentional pruning? LOVE! The fruit that I should produce, the fruit that should be the basis for all other things is LOVE.
How am I adding value to others? Are others worth adding value to? What do I need to prune from my subconscious belief system so that I can see all people thought he eyes of the One who created themwith love? Without regard for color, position, religion, race, social status, financial status, clothing choices, lifestyle choices, the car they drive, the house they live inthe list goes on. Where am I casting judgment or determining value?
6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5: 6-8 (NIV)
Thank God He didnt wait until I was perfect to love me. Thank God He didnt wait until I fit into some man-made social box to see my value and determine I was worth it. What do I need to prune away so that I am not holding back opportunities, friendship, a smile, an act of kindness, forgiveness?
One of my mentors, John Maxwell, says he tries to see everyone with a 10 on their forehead. When you see others as having value, they rise up to that expectation. I am human and it is only because of the Jesus in me that I can do that. In my humanness, there are people in my life that I need an extra bold Sharpie to be able to place that 10 up there. Dont pretend you dont know what Im talking about. LOL!
I never said pruning wasnt hard and sometimes painfulbut Im challenging you to see pruning as beneficial and even necessary to achieving a desired end result. Im challenging you to make it part of your personal development. Im challenging you to consider it worth it!
Pruning takes us out of our comfort zone and at the same time encourages and promotes growth. Pruning leads to the healthiest, most delicious fruit.
Who wants some of that?
