“If you make a sale you make a living. If you make an investment of time and good service in a customer, you can make a fortune.”
What sets us apart part from the thousands of landscaping companies in Michigan? The ability to empathize that the properties we service are peoples homes/businesses. These are the properties people invest into and show up to every day. So do we do things that are above standard? Do we do things that exceed most codes? Absolutely. Because at the end of the day what’s the loss? Structures last longer, people get their value, and our reputation excels.
The thing that disappoints me the most is seeing how the services industry has declined at such a rapid pace. The amount of times I have heard “the last guy didn’t do that but you guys clearly care” is getting to a point I can’t even count.
I genuinely can’t lay my head down at night knowing we didn’t do things to our standard. To build an empire you have to be personal, exceed expectations and create a relationship where your client knows you have their best interest at heart. I despise shortcuts for a better rate.
“Strive not to be a success but rather to be of value.” It saddens me when I see people go with the cheaper guy because I know they’re making a decision in few years they’ll regret. I never want to be anyone’s regret and that’s what ESSERs is about. Value over success.
To all my clients, thank you for your trust and thank you for all those who refer us to others because you see the value. It is the biggest compliment we can receive since it is such a core value of our services.
