Commercial Landscaping Cold Calling Script

"Hi, this is {{yourName}} with {{companyName}}. I'm reaching out because we provide commercial landscaping services for businesses in {{areaName}}, and I noticed your property at {{propertyAddress}} might benefit from some of our services. Do you have a quick minute to discuss your current landscaping situation?"

**If they say yes or seem open:**

"Great, thank you. I'm curious—who currently handles your landscaping, and how satisfied are you with the service on a scale of 1 to 10? [Listen and take notes]

The reason I ask is that we specialize in {{specialty}}—things like [mention specific services relevant to their property]. What we've found is that many property managers and business owners are paying for basic mow-and-blow service when they could be getting comprehensive grounds management for a similar investment.

Here's what makes us different: We assign a dedicated account manager to your property. That means one person who knows your property inside and out, notices issues before they become problems, and is accountable for the results.

I'd love to schedule a brief property walk-through—about 15 minutes—where I can show you specifically what we'd do differently and provide a detailed proposal. Would later this week work, or is early next week better?"

**If they mention they're happy with their current provider:**

"That's great to hear—a reliable landscaping partner is hard to find. Just out of curiosity, when's the last time you got a competitive bid? [Listen] The landscaping market has changed a lot in the past {{timeframe}}. We've been able to offer better service at comparable or lower rates to businesses who thought they were getting a good deal. Would it hurt to see what else is out there? A 15-minute walk-through costs you nothing and might save you thousands."

**If they're the wrong contact:**

"I understand. Who would be the right person to speak with about grounds maintenance for your property? [Get name] And what's the best way to reach them? Perfect—would you mind if I mentioned that you referred me? Great, thank you for your time."

**If they're in a contract:**

"No problem—when does your current contract expire? [Note the date] I'll make a note to follow up about 60 days before that so you have options. In the meantime, would you like me to send over some information about our services so you know what's available when that time comes?"

"Hi, this is {{yourName}} with {{companyName}}. We provide commercial landscaping services in {{areaName}}, and I'm reaching out because I noticed your property at {{propertyAddress}} might benefit from our services. I'd love to schedule a quick 15-minute walk-through to show you what we could do. Give me a call back at {{yourPhone}}. Again, that's {{yourName}} at {{yourPhone}}. Looking forward to connecting."
