One time aerations
Every spring and fall we get countless calls for folks inquiring about a one time aeration. We go out and aerate, provide a lawncare estimate, and 99% of the time it's a one time $50-$60 "pop" and we never hear from them again even regardless of future marketing and calls. Scheduling and routing becomes a hassle as well.
Hardly seems worthwhile.
I've made the decision to eliminate the one time aeration customer.
The last few calls we simply ask if they are interested in a complete lawn care program (fertilizer with insect and weed control) and if they say no we just tell them we only provide aeration to our full service lawn care customers. One told me that's "B.S." and just hung up. Oh well....
Anyone do similar?
