Quick answer
What you need to know

The full answer below explains the tradeoffs and how this applies to a field-service business.
The full answer
This question matters because landscaping calls often happen while the owner or crew is already working. A caller may need design consultations, planting, maintenance, sod installation, outdoor lighting, project estimates, and a slow response can turn into a lost opportunity.
Intake questions to ask
Capture the caller’s name, confirmed phone number, property address, service need, urgency, timeline, and any access notes. For landscaping, the follow-up questions should change based on the service type and whether the caller is new, existing, residential, commercial, urgent, or recurring.
Useful details include:
- Contact information and preferred callback method
- Property address and service area fit
- Service type, urgency, and timeline
- Photos, access notes, budget, or scheduling constraints when relevant
Where Tinylawn fits
Tinylawn can ask configured follow-up questions, capture a transcript and recording, and send a structured summary. That makes it easier to quote, schedule, escalate, or pass on the lead.
