Why You Should Add Landscape Lighting to Your Home Improvement Business
See Your Business in a Whole New Light
As a home service professional, you have the privilege of working directly with homeowners, helping make their properties more functional, comfortable and attractive. That’s what makes outdoor lighting a natural extension of what you already do. Whether you provide landscaping, lawn maintenance or deck and patio services, exterior lighting is a relatively easy add-on with big ROI potential.
Here are 4 Reasons Investing in an OLP Franchise Makes Sense
-
Win more bids as a one-stop shop: Homeowners are likely to turn to contractors they trust, even for different services.
-
Offset seasonality concerns: Depending on where you’re located, exterior services such as roofing, lawncare and painting tend to slow down in the winter months. OLP franchisees, however, stay busy all year with holiday lighting services.
-
Broaden your client demographic: Exterior lighting services make inroads to higher-end clientele, people who are proud of their homes and want to keep up with the Joneses, so to speak.
-
Cross-market your services: There’s marketing synergy between complementary businesses such as landscaping, irrigation, deck building and exterior lighting. Cross marketing these services will lower your cost-per-client and increase your “share of wallet.”
