Lawn and landscape professionals enjoy networking – anywhere, anytime. Trade shows, seminars, association meetings, message boards and so on, contractors are always eager to share ideas and learn a business tip or two that can net them extra dollars on the bottom line.
Message boards, chat rooms, podcasts and Webcasts represented the first wave of online networking and learning. Now, Lawn & Landscape is pleased to debut a new method of connecting with other professionals in the lawn and landscape industry – our social networking site, www.lawnandlandscape.tv. It’s a one-stop site for enriching your business and industry knowledge as well as communicating with your peers. In addition to social networking capabilities, blogs and photo galleries, one of the main components of our site is video. Think of it as a You Tube for the lawn and landscape industry.
Whether you’re a small, medium or large landscaping firm, www.lawnandlandscape.tv provides social networking tools such as blogs, video sharing and before and after lawn and landscape photos and designs to communicate with real contractors just like you. It’s what our message board community has been asking for, and we’re excited to bring it to you.
Installing and maintaining landscapes is a visual process. Seeing a new construction project take shape or observing the maintenance technique of a seasoned crew is a beautiful thing. No longer do you have to search the Internet in hopes of stumbling upon a site that offers dedicated videos and photo galleries pertaining to operations, field training, plant identification, business seminars, as well as conversations and opinions that actively shape industry trends.
Lawn & Landscape TV is a shared community. This is a dynamic site that relies on the industry to regularly populate it with relevant industry videos, photos and forum conversation. Think of it as a landscape that continuously takes a fresh look with each new enhancement. Additionally, we’d like to create a section of our TV site for commercials and radio spots you’ve produced so your peers around the country can share and learn from these marketing efforts.
Log on today and take advantage of all of the features the site has to offer, including posting your own blog, participating in forums, posting photos of your landscape projects, sharing videos from You Tube and communicating via the social networking capabilities.
Visit the site every day to take in new training videos and stay updated with our news feed, delivered instantaneously from lawnandlandscape.com. We look forward to seeing the free flow of ideas that will make your businesses better. We’d also like to hear ideas you have for other additions to our new site.
