Clean Earth LandscapingI’ve been using yardbook for two years. I started as a solo operator lawn care company. In my second year I evolved to a Landscaping and Water Feature company, I did $154,000 in revenue that year. I’ve scaled into a full-on water feature and landscaping company this year, and have increased revenue 300%. I would absolutely consider Yardbook to be one of the pillars of our success. The tool is amazing and keeps evolving. It allows me to interact with customers, create invoices and estimates, and handle all my billing. It also is my one-stop-shop for job planning and scheduling. Now that I have an employee, they can access everything they need for each job as well. Yardbook is an amazing tool, like I mentioned, I could not recommend it more! There are other CRM tools out there, but the yardbook offerings are on par with all of them! And best of all, there’s a free version of Yardbook, which is essential for new businesses who need to keep costs low!

Hoppe's Lawn Care LLCYard Book has been an awesome software for me to get organized and run my business. I am still using the free version, and it does a great job. In the future I may go with the paid version, but for right now, I would give Yardbook 5 stars.
ACE OF SPADES Gardening & DesignHonestly, as a new business owner, with no business or crm experience, this system confused me. I then looked into other crms. LOL came back to yardbooks and never looked back. Few weeks of none stop and I'm pretty fluent in the crm. They have videos to help you progress and the suggestion team is quick and amazing. If you just starting, Yardbooks is probably the best out there.

Yardbook, in its sole discretion, may provide links to other locations or websites on the Internet. The content of such third party websites have not been reviewed by Yardbook and are maintained by third parties over which Yardbook has no control. You acknowledge and agree that you use or follow these links entirely at your own risk. Yardbook is not responsible for the damage or loss suffered by you arising out of, or in connection with your access to or use of these third party websites, including, but not limited to, damage or loss to your computer system or loss of data arising from your use of documents or information found on these third party websites. Any links to such third-party websites are for your convenience and the inclusion of such links on our website does not imply any endorsement, guarantee, warranty or representation by Yardbook of the quality or accuracy of the content, information, products or services or other materials provided to you on those third party websites.
You are solely responsible for and must pay all applicable taxes, and any applicable third-party fee (such as telephone charges, mobile carrier fees, ISP charges, data plan charges, SMS and third-party payment processing fees) that may result from your use of our Services.
Prior to sending the first message, you must obtain agreement from the message recipient to communicate with them - this is referred to as "consent", you must make clear to the individual they are agreeing to receive messages of the type you're going to send. You need to keep a record of the consent, such as a copy of the document or form that the message recipient signed, or a timestamp of when the customer completed a sign-up flow.
If an individual sends a message to you, you are free to respond in an exchange with that individual. For example, if an individual texts your phone number asking for your hours of operation, you can respond directly to that individual, relaying your open hours. In such a case, the individual’s inbound message to you constitutes both consent and proof of consent. Remember that the consent is limited only to that particular conversation. Unless you obtain additional consent, don't send messages that are outside that conversation.
You may send a message to an individual where you have a prior relationship, provided that individual provided their phone number to you, and has taken some action to trigger the potential communication, and has not expressed a preference to not receive messages from you. Actions can include a button press, alert setup, appointments, or order placements. Examples of acceptable messages in these scenarios include appointment reminders, receipts, one-time passwords, order/shipping/reservation confirmations, drivers coordinating pick up locations with riders, and repair persons confirming service call times. In this case, the message can't attempt to promote a product, convince someone to buy something, or advocate for a social cause.
If you submit feedback, comments, ideas or suggestions (collectively "Suggestions") about our Services, you acknowledge that such Suggestions are unsolicited and that we may, but have no obligation, to use your Suggestions.
