Here’s a simple way to leverage Facebook and get more eyes on your business—takes just 5 minutes a day. 1. Log into Facebook on your personal account. 2. Search for your local city in the search bar. 3. Go to the ‘People’ tab and start sending friend requests to people in your area (up to 20 per day). 4. Post daily about your business on your personal page. Share what you’re working on, whether it’s a video or a quick update like, “Just finished this amazing project—let us know if you need help!” The key here is consistency. Posting every day ensures you stay on people's radar. When I had my landscape company, this was part of my nightly routine, and it made a huge difference. Remember, marketing is about being intentional. Don't be shy about talking about your business—whether online or in person. People need to know who you are and what you do! If you haven’t tried this strategy yet, give it a shot today. It’s a quick, free way to build up local visibility and generate more work. 🌱

Hi, I’m the owner of a landscape construction company in Central Ohio started in 2022. I do all project base work from landscaping & hardscaping design, drainage, and light excavation. I am wanting to move my business into solely a design + build company and hire my first full time employee that has experience in the hardscape & excavation industry. I am hoping to put a good system in place for marketing that gets me the quality leads to make that happen.
