“We’ve seen a 2–3X improvement. Back in the day, I was excited when we had 6% net increases. Nowadays if we don’t hit 12%, it’s a problem. That’s a night and day difference.”

“Everyone on my team is held accountable to their numbers within the Aspire platform (KPIs, dials, reports), and productivity has increased because of it. What’s more, because we’re able to create quick and accurate bids, we can propose twice as much work in the same amount of time.”
“Navigating the system is very simple, even without much training. Personally, I am twice as productive because of Aspire. I am able to complete proposals quickly, which frees up time to research opportunities for enhancements.”
“The system also allows us to review earned revenue, so we have a better understanding of our true performance and margins throughout the month—not just at the end of the month. As a direct result, our enhancement and tree divisions are experiencing rapid growth and our bottom line has increased 5%+.”
“Organizing schedules and tracking hours has become easier, which has allowed me to stay focused on the task at hand. Aspire helps me understand what we have coming up and what has been completed.”
“Because Aspire helps us stay organized and informed by tracking hours, schedules, and job costs, we have increased crew production. For example, we are currently tracking to achieve an 80% acceptance rate for upsell proposals in our tree division—this is huge!”
“I’ve seen our gross margins increase 18% since using the Aspire platform. That’s significant. On bottom line, we’ve seen a 2-3X improvement. Back in the day, I was excited when we had 6% net increases. Nowadays if we don’t hit 12%, it’s a problem. That’s a night and day difference.”
“I knew Aspire was working the day that I walked into our field supervisor’s office. There are five guys in there, and they’re always fighting with technology. That day, three of them were on a computer in the Aspire platform and the other two were on their iPads, building schedules and analyzing data. I’ve been fighting the technology battle since day one, and to see it working in the field was a ‘wow’ moment.”
