- Have You Ever Had A Shit Week?
In this week’s episode I am chatting about my week and the recent talk I delivered about bridging the gap between designers and landscapers. There are lots you can take from this episode and apply it to you and your business.
My son has been ill meaning I have been working from home. Which has been difficult to say the least! However, last week I delivered a talk on behalf of Kate Charles Garden Design to the garden design professionals Facebook group with a discussion after about the gap between designers and landscapers. In around 8 weeks this topic will be available in full within the TLC membership (link below to join)
What is your experiences when working it comes to working with a designer if you’re a landscaper and vice versa? Let us know!

23 min - New Years Resolutions - Planning and Goal Setting for 2022
In this week’s podcast episode Paula is talking about new year’s resolutions and setting goals.
A common misconception is if you haven’t planned your year by 1st January then you shouldn’t bother. NO you’re never too late to plan for the year.
- First set some SMART goals, these need to be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time sensitive. For example, if you would like more clients, how many more? How much is each client worth?
- Keep your goal in mind, you can create a vision board, screensaver etc. You need to keep seeing these goals so they’re at the forefront of your mind. You could even create a dream jar, so you write one goal on a piece of paper and put into a jar or box to pull one out every day to spend a couple of minutes visualizing achieving that goal.
- Another thing you could do is a gratitude jar which every week you write down what you are grateful for and what you have achieved so then at the end of the year you read through them all. It reminds you of what you’ve done over the year in business and personal life and can be motivating.
- Planning in small steps - planning your goals but in weekly, monthly, quarterly, chunks in order to achieve your year goals.

12 min - Reacting To Our 2021 Year In Review Video
In this week's podcast episode, Paula and Charlotte are talking about our year in review and what this means for you and your business moving forward.
What is a year in review video?
It looks over all your highlights and successes of the year to reflect back on and see what you have achieved. You don’t have to do this as a video, even just writing down all your successes is a good way to then reflect and review. You can then share snippets of these as a social post on your social profiles.
If we set you the task to look at your year, and take every month and write down one big or small thing that you have achieved in your business, you’d be amazed at what you will find and you will have 12 things.
This also helps to plan your year ahead to see where you can take your business in the upcoming year.

8 min - Closing Of Your Business For Christmas
In this week’s podcast episode, Paula and Charlotte are talking about successfully closing your landscaping business for Christmas.
- Banner, pop up or a paragraph by your contact form on your website - with please note we are closing from x date to x date, for them to know if they inquire you will be back after that date.
- Autoresponder on your emails - so if anyone emails they will receive your email saying you are closed and will reply on your return.
- Email Signature - A Christmassy signature detailing your closing dates.
- Social Media - posts about Christmas closure so your customers are aware.
This is all to prepare your client why you’re not responding.
Answering service - we use an answering service all year round so that we do not miss calls but even using just over the Christmas period can be hugely beneficial.

12 min - Learning From A Show Failure
In this week’s podcast episode Paula and Charlotte are talking about a recent show they exhibted at and learnings from it.
Grab your ticket for Virtually Limitless - https://hopin.com/events/virtually-limitless/registration
What you sell is what you sell - For example, if you say you can install a water feature but you don’t normally do it and it went wrong, you should’ve reccomeded someone or said we can’t do it because it is not the client’s fault.
Good customer service and winning a customer back - Listening and understanding your client’s frustrations. Try to see things from their point of view with an honest conversation and work out how you can put it right.
Communication - If you’re going to say something make sure it is true because if a client finds out you are lying they will lose all trust.
Staffing - Having staffing issues cannot be an excuse!
Having everything in writing - Make sure you keep all emails to refer back to if they try to say you didn’t tell them things. For example, a supplier had a delay on a delivery so that if you have an issue with the client you can show them what the supplier has said.
TOP TIP: Getting the customer to sign contracts. Paula uses Docusign so that if the client thinks they are getting something different you can show they have signed the contract which says exacty what they’re getting.
