John F replied to Richard Farley's discussion Nature Loving Customers !!!

"It's interesting though how many customers see any creature within their garden territory as an intruder .
Fear of the unknown perhaps ?
Must admit though the unfortunate label of slow worm does them no favours . "

Billybop replied to Richard Farley's discussion Nature Loving Customers !!!

"to be fair, if they were unaware of what Slow Worms are, from the name alone, they might sound like a pest, like some outdoor type of tape worm"

Billybop replied to Brian's Garden Maintenance's discussion Clients contracts for wet Grass cutting

"hi Brian, the charge would essentially be doubled. Tripled even. Or something close to that. Depending on when I would be available to return. Especially on the big gardens which are not easy to reschedule. So there is no incentive for the customer…"

Hi Kimberley,

Thanks for the welcome. This site looks like a Godsend! Started my gardening business part time two years and going full time this year following redundancy. The advice here is invaluable and look forward to making a few posts soon.

Cheers

Hello Kimberley

Thanks for your reply. Interesting... I thought I was the one who had been keeping a low profile for too long! I have always, and indeed still do, have more than enough work via word of mouth, however, recent changes have suggested to me that a change is a foot and a new appraisal is required perhaps you could talk me through some of the broad pointers of your industry?

Regards Andrew

Hello Kimberley I guess I was blinkered to the fact that PR plays a important role in horticulture, having been only marginally involved on the commercial side I imagine I have blissfully been working away for over 30 years in amenity and teaching to perhaps now see the benefits of this. All my work has really been word of mouth but having just joined the site and discovered old friends I can perhaps now see the 'light'.

Regards Andrew
