What you'll learn

  • How property managers and homeowners find and vet landscape companies today
  • Where referrals fit in the buying cycle, and the stages most companies miss
  • How AI search is changing the way buyers find contractors
  • Simple steps to stand out at each stage before the spring rush

For most landscape companies, new work comes from referrals and long-standing relationships. That works until a key property manager retires or moves on, and the pipeline goes quiet. Today’s buyers, from property managers to homeowners, research contractors online, compare reviews, and increasingly ask AI tools for recommendations before they ever pick up the phone. In this session, Scorpion’s Trey Pelz walks through each stage of the landscape buying cycle, from awareness and research to decision and referral. You’ll see where most companies show up, where they go invisible, and what buyers look for at each step. You’ll leave with practical ways to build a pipeline that doesn’t depend on who you know, just in time for spring planning.
