Key takeaways
  • Offer last year's extras to every customer in the same month; most people say yes to what they bought before.
  • The core of landscaping CRM is on Koira's Grow plan, $249 a month plus usage, with no per-person fee.
  • Customer page or portal and automatic estimate follow-ups decide most of it for landscapers.

What a CRM does for a landscaping company

A landscaping customer is a property: its size, its beds, its irrigation and what the owner wants done each season. Remembering that is what keeps a maintenance customer for years.

The CRM also sells the extras: the aeration, the mulch refresh, the fall cleanup, offered to the customers already on the route.

What to keep on every landscaping customer

  • Lot size and turf area
  • Gate codes and pets
  • Services on the plan
  • Beds and plant notes
  • Irrigation zones and controller
  • Extras bought last year
  • Projects quoted and declined
  • Preferred day
A tip from the tradeOffer last year's extras to every customer in the same month; most people say yes to what they bought before.

What a CRM should do for landscapers

  • A page for every customer with every visit, estimate and invoice
  • Follow-ups on open estimates
  • Seasonal asks to past customers
  • Review asks after paid jobs
  • Recurring service plans, which matters for landscapers

How Koira does it

In Koira every customer of a landscaping company has a page, on every plan: visits, estimates to sign, invoices to pay, receipts and a way to book again, from one link in every text, with no app or password. Notes like lot size and turf area live with the customer, and review asks go out after every paid job.

Grow, $249 a month plus usage at cost, puts the record to work: calls answered on a Koira number, open estimates nudged on day two and day four, and past customers texted and emailed when the season turns, with one tap to book.

For landscapers in particular

  • Seasonal email and text campaigns. On Grow, seasonal reminders go to past customers who agreed to hear from you.
What Koira does not doKoira does not do payroll, inventory or a dispatch board for a call center. If you need those, a larger system may suit you better.

From Jobber pricing and GorillaDesk pricing, checked October 8, 2026; Kickserv pricing, checked October 9, 2026. Jobber's pricing page blocks a plain fetch and changes its prices with a team size picker, so we read it in a real browser. The $29 a month per added user is in the note behind each plan's user count. GorillaDesk prices by route with a slider that fills in by script, so we read each route count in a real browser. A cell names the lowest plan that lists the feature; "Not listed" means we did not see it, so ask. Prices change often, so check the page before you buy.
