Most landscapers think residential snow and lawn care can’t scale profitably. Summit Lawns in Lincoln, Nebraska, is proving otherwise. With 4,000 clients and five profit centers, owner Ted Glaser has built one of the Midwest’s fastest-growing lawn and landscape companies.
In this episode of The Landscaper’s Guide, Jack Jostes talks with Ted about the painful “Summer of Diamonds” when he lost half his staff, how he rebuilt with a stronger model, and the systems that keep Summit Lawns growing year after year.
You’ll discover:
- Why residential snow and lawn care can solve cash flow and training challenges

- Why social media matters for both hiring and AI-driven search visibility
