Feels like a very elegant Quick books for Landscapers, only free. Besides advertising, how will you make money?

@rsolo20 Thanks for the note Robert! We're exploring some focused monetization approaches including premium features and services among others. Some analysts estimate the lawn and landscape industry to be $76B (and that's just in the US) so we feel we are very well positioned to create and capture a lot of value in the market which is fragmented today.

@briangamido what about lead gen? I'd love to use a dedicated service like this over Angie's list or thumbtack to field landscapers - and I'm sure they'd gladly pay for leads

@passingnotes Hi David, thanks for the note! We've heard a lot of demand for this from our users too and we're definitely exploring some approaches.

@briangamido @passingnotes this is nitpicking (everything looks really great overall) but the shady, overgrown forest image you chose for the main homepage backdrop doesn't seem to reflect your product or customer base. perhaps one of the images you use further down in the page (photo of someone's yard? nicely manicured grounds?) would be better?
