My top 3 takeaways from the L&L tech conference

Landscaping is still the American dream

Aug 23, 2024

Lawn & Landscape's technology conference event is a three day event in Atlanta, GA. It had over 20 sessions and 50 exhibitors, here are my top 3 takeaways from the whole conference:

Running a landscaping business is the American dream

Niwar took his family business from bankruptcy to $10 million dollar a year in 7 years 🤯. Heather transformed her sleepy old family business into a fast moving, tech forward business. How? Get the right people on board, invest in technology, stay positive, and stick to the grind.

People, technology, attitude and hard work remain the keys to success

If you're not measuring your business, you're leaking money

18.9% of jobs nationwide are unprofitable, and most owners don't know this because they don't keep tabs on their business. It's hard to measure everything, but at a minimum, measure curb time, drive time and production time.

If you feel like you're behind on AI, don't worry - Duranta has you covered!

A live poll was conducted during the conference: only 3% of landscapers are really using AI to meaningfully help in their day to day work. We see this as a missed opportunity: we think that between AI and other technology, our software will help you save 3 hours per day. We do this by making it fast and easy to use your mobile phone to create beautiful proposals, and to run your business.
