Knowledge and the Desire To Do Things Right
It’s not a guarantee of success in the landscape business, but knowledge and doing things right has always been the cornerstone of every reputable company.
Great landscapes involve equal consideration for design, horticulture, engineering and the unique conditions of each property.
Installing and maintaining landscapes with an understanding of how these “systems” work is the smartest strategy for getting beautiful and sustainable results.
If you build a reputation on these principles you’ll have the basis for the “coveted” referral work. There is no better way to do business.
LandscapeAdvisor is all about helping you learn information and skills that follow this model and set you apart for success.

About Roger Bisbe
I’m a professional landscape designer with over 30 years experience. The majority of that time I operated a landscape company where I designed projects and produced them with our crews and equipment. I also developed working relationships with other companies to do some of the specialized work.
6 years ago I dissolved the contracting division of the business and now operate as a designer / project manager. I really enjoy working through the entire process with the homeowner.
As a designer / project manager I provide the level of detail I know the planning phase requires, and then implement the project by bringing together the best tradespeople in their respective fields.
LandscapeAdvisor is an extension of what I do everyday – and that is to educate and advise on all topics that make up a successful landscape.
If you currently have a landscape business or would like to start one, my articles can help. I write them in the context of how I operate my company to consistently grow a loyal customer base and “word-of-mouth” business.
You can find out more about me and my business timeline here.

I welcome your e-mails with any thoughts, questions or experiences (good & bad) you may have had with a landscape. Pictures can be helpful so feel free to send one along. Perhaps I’ll use your question or situation for one of my articles.
All the best!
