landscaper of the year finalists
"Last year, we landed a $250,000 commercial
installation project where the customer didn't
want to hire anyone who used subcontractors,"
Cromley says. "We were
able to run that project
very fluidly…. as we put
in plants, for instance,
drip irrigation came in
right afterward. Plus, we
can determine our own
schedule — no waiting
for another subcontractor
because he got stuck on a
large project or his equipment broke down."
Another key success
factor is the move toward high-end clientele,
which occurred slowly as
the duo's confidence in
their abilities to handle
larger projects grew and
customer referrals snowballed.
"It was sheer happenstance — no grand
strategy, and we didn't
do anything marketing-wise aimed at only highend customers," Cromley says. "But we knew that's
where we wanted to go."
