Tim Johnson Landscaping maps 600 sites in 2 weeks!

Tim Johnson Landscaping, a leading landscaping service in North Carolina, specializes in high-end residential installations and commercial property maintenance.

They faced a challenge when scaling their operations—inefficiencies in their property measurement and proposal process were slowing growth and creating bottlenecks. Then they turned to SiteRecon for help.

Scaling quickly put a lot of pressure on the company

Time Constraints: Tim’s team had to measure hundreds of properties manually within tight deadlines, including a massive portfolio of over 600 properties to prepare for Aspire system implementation. The task, initially estimated at 450 properties, grew unexpectedly.

"It was crazy. We needed it done in less than two weeks," Tim recalled.

Data Inaccuracy: Manual measurements often led to discrepancies in property details, particularly in identifying boundaries for complex parcels.

"You’d get properties with multiple parcels or areas that weren’t even really owned by the client. It was a mess to clean up," Tim explained.

Resource Allocation: Sales and operations teams were stretched thin. Tasks like manual measurement took time away from higher-value activities such as client meetings and strategic planning.

Inconsistent Processes: Without a streamlined system, property data often lacked consistency, making it harder for crews and account managers to align expectations.

Automated measurements to the rescue

By adopting SiteRecon, Tim Johnson Landscaping automated property measurements, freeing up valuable time and ensuring accuracy. Key features of SiteRecon addressed their needs:

  • Speed of Measurement: Properties were measured accurately and returned within hours.
  • Feedback Integration: The team could review and approve measurements to ensure accuracy before finalizing proposals.
  • Scalability: SiteRecon easily handled their portfolio of over 600 properties, even as additional addresses were identified.
"You’ve got a good process for making sure you get it right," said Tim. "And now, as we’ve grown together, it’s been a game-changer."

Results speak for themselves

  1. Streamlined Operations: SiteRecon enabled the company to turn around maintenance proposals in 24 hours, a significant improvement from the previous timeline of several days or weeks.
  2. Increased Accuracy: Tim appreciated the use of up-to-date aerial imagery from Nearmap, eliminating concerns about outdated maps and improving trust in measurements.

    "The accuracy was my number one concern, but y’all nailed it," Tim noted.
  3. Enhanced Productivity:
    -Sales teams could focus on client relationships instead of spending hours on measurements.
    -Crews benefited from detailed, color-coded maps, reducing confusion and errors during project execution.
  4. Stronger Client Relationships: Fast, accurate proposals helped Tim’s team impress clients and win more business. Face-to-face client meetings were backed by detailed, professional proposals that inspired confidence.
"Being the first person there with a proposal often makes the difference, and SiteRecon lets us do that," Tim emphasized.
