Green Thumb Gardens is a landscaping and lawn care company serving the Seattle area. Owner Tom Anderson started the business 15 years ago with a truck and a mower. Today, the team of 8 handles everything from weekly lawn maintenance to complete landscape design and installation.
Landscaping is highly seasonal in Seattle. Spring and fall are busy with cleanups, but summer and winter can be slow. Tom was tired of the boom-and-bust cycle—scrambling for work in off-seasons and turning away customers during peak times.
“Most customers would call us for a one-time job and then forget about us. We wanted to build relationships that lasted all year, but we just didn’t have time to follow up with everyone.”
After every job, send a thank you with photos of the completed work and next service recommendations.
Spring cleanup in March, summer maintenance in June, fall prep in September, winter services in November.
In January, promote full-year maintenance contracts with early signup discounts.

“Spring and fall reminders for yard cleanup services filled our calendar. Customers sign up for the whole season now instead of one-off jobs. Our revenue is much more predictable.”
