I’ve been receiving weekly lawn mowing services from a provider on GreenPal for a couple months. It’s been long enough now I feel like I can post a quick review. Pros: -Easy to open an account and post my yard -Received five quotes within 24 hours -Rates are competitive -Got my first service within just a few days of posting -The guy who is doing my lawn has been consistent, shows up on time, and does a fantastic job Cons: -My grass grows pretty slowly. It’d be nice if I could do once a month. Every two weeks is okay though. All in all, I’m very happy with GreenPal and the service from my lawn care pro.

My friend and I just started a lawncare company and have just the basic setup for now. We don’t have any capital we can use to put into products or extra equipment- we’re just going off the little bit of cash we have in our pocket. We have the following basic equipment: 54” deck z turn mower, leaf blower, hedge trimmer and snips, edger, string trimmer and of course garden rakes and shovels and basic hand tools. Also have access to small push mower if needed but it’s not ours per say. Our first customer, we used GreenPal to bid on the job. We knew we’d lose our ass on it because it bid for a whopping $27. Took 2 hrs to do it. (Forgot to mention I just do the business side of things and he does the work so it’s mostly a 1 person team in the field). Ended up being an ass of weed eating because they had let it grow up really high under their porches and around their wood line and then they had a bunch of junk piled up around the porch that had to be moved out and then back in. Ended up changing their future price to $40 - wasn’t happy with that so dropped it back down to $35. Takes $20 in gas to get to the house. Then today we quoted some people at $70 to mow, trim, edge, and blow the clippings and also trim hedges. The breakdown is $60 to mow, $20 to trim hedges, and we charged $10 extra on the mow because we didn’t have the push mower and they told us we could fit the z turn threw their gate but definitely no where close so we had to cut the 500sqft of backyard with the STRING TRIMMER! And our price for hedges is supposed to be capped at 10 hedges but the hedges were so over grown, it actually ended up being more like 25 hedges. It was 10 contractors bags full of hedge trimmings. Took 5 HOURS to do with the both of us working at it. When we asked for $20 more she about lost it!!! (We tried to sneak it in there as a haul off fee for so many bags of clippings because we knew it was actually our fault for not counting the hedges or even thinking about it before we started and it was worth WAY more than $20 for all that but we just went straight to work and didn’t confirm a new price with the client first - it was our first real customer and big job so we were excited and got carried away). Tomorrow we have a client booked that also wants 10 hedges trimmed (we stopped by and counted this time) but wants 1000sqft of yard push mowed (can’t get in the gate with z turn) and also has massive amounts of weeds he wants killed. We quoted him at $175 - $65 for mowing, $75 for weed killer and pulling, $20 for the hedges, and $10 for extra weed eating due to overgrowth. - Is this right? I don’t want to lose our ass again. What are going rates and standard services that typical landscapers and lawn care pros do?

**Founder, Bryan Clayton shares the story:** It all started when I got a Nintendo 64 with Super Mario Kart. My dad got pissed off because I was playing Nintendo all day long, and he talked to the neighbor one day, and the neighbor was like, *‘Hey, I'm looking for someone to mow my yard.’* He goes, *‘My son cuts grass.’* He came up to my bedroom and said, *‘I got a gig for you. You're going to go mow the neighbor's yard.’* I said, *‘I don't mow yards.’* He goes, *‘Well you do now.’* I got paid $20 for an hour of work, and from that day forward, I was hooked on entrepreneurship. The first thing I did was start passing out flyers all over the neighborhood. Before I knew it, I had 10 or 20 customers. So, I stuck with that little lawn-mowing business throughout high school and college. Then, when I graduated college, I had to make a decision. Would I stick with this lawn mowing business that I had run in high school and college, or would I do something else in my life? I didn't really want to be a blue-collar laborer for the rest of my life. But I could quickly envision what this business could become if I had 10 or 20 employees. And I thought, *‘Well, I'm going to see how big I can grow this.’* I made a business plan and thought it would be worth it if I could get to a point where I had two or three crews going out every day and didn't have to personally do the work anymore. By year two, I had 20 employees. That business eventually reached $10 million in sales and was acquired. **Q: How old were you when, when you sold the business?** 32 years old. I made the decision to sell it at age 30, and it took me two years to get it sold. I tried to retire. I tried to just do real estate investing and it got really boring. Life didn't have meaning anymore. I didn't realize it, but my company was the reason why I got out of bed in the morning. So, I needed another mission. And that's where GreenPal started, the Uber of lawn mowing. **Q: How did you scale GreenPal into a $30 Million tech business without knowing how to code?** Well, it started with naivety. When I was running my landscaping company, I saw it was hard for consumers to quickly get pricing and discover which landscapers were reliable. And then, as a service provider, it's really hard running that kind of business because you don't have time to run sales, give estimates, or even answer the phone. You're literally cutting grass, and at night, you're mailing out invoices. It's just a grind. I knew that somebody was going to build a platform that solved all those problems with a clean user experience. What I didn't have was the technical acumen. I started attending tech meetups but had no luck finding technical people to start the business with. I told two friends about the idea, and they said, *‘I'll quit my job tomorrow and do that with you.’* It was two guys that worked in sales at Dell. The three of us formed this company. We pulled our money together and sketched out what we thought the app would look like on a whiteboard. We took pictures of those boxes and started talking to dev shops. We landed on one of the quotes that was $180,000, and we paid these guys to build what we thought the app should be. It took them 9-10 months. When we got it back, we quickly realized that this was a huge mistake. This thing barely worked; it was clunky and unintuitive, and there was no way we could do this if we couldn't go through iteration cycles quicker than 11 months. At this point, we're all broke. I had taken all my proceeds from selling my business and locked them down in highly illiquid investments. So, even though I had cash-flowing assets, I had little money in the bank. I was very cash-poor. **Q: What did you guys do from there?** I personally made the decision that no matter what, from that day forward, I was just going to work as hard as I could on the business. We have this terrible app; let's go door to door and talk to as many people as possible, pitching them on the idea of using it. We did that until we got a hundred people, and they would always tell us everywhere the app sucked, but they never told us I don't need this. And one English lady said, *‘Oh, it would be divine if it did work.’* That stuck with me. Now we got to go find somebody to help us build this thing. My co-founder is like, *‘Well, I found this thing called the Nashville software school. It's a boot camp for nine months, and it’s $12k.’* He put $12k on his credit card that he didn't have, and he started attending the Nashville software school 8 hours a day. Whatever he learned in a given week, he took and started rebuilding the platform from the back end. We're like, *‘Word. Dev - check. Zach's going to become one.’* He's like, *‘Well, what you don't know is that it's going to take a lot longer than you think and somebody has got to build the front end of this.’* So I started going to YouTube University, looking up how to code HTML, CSS basics, and JavaScript tutorials, and I started taking every online class I could. After about three months, I became the world's worst front-end developer. But it was just enough where I could take what he was working with and connect to it and build the views. We got to about 400-500 customers and then we got to a point where we could start just rinse and repeat. People ask me if I will start another startup. I will never do it again. It's so much not fun, and your odds of success are so small. **Q: How did you scale the platform and get hundreds of thousands of users?** If I had to distill it into one thing, it would be the marketplace's ability to generate demand. I knew that Google was going to be a channel for us and I was thinking, *‘Man, this may be the channel.’* We won't compete for these head terms, but we could compete for the long tail. So, we had five or ten service providers in Smyrna, Tennessee. We interviewed them and wrote content about them. It was unique, rich, organic content about these small business owners that didn't exist anywhere else. From that bottoms-up approach, we started noticing in Google Analytics that we were getting a little bit of traffic. **Q: How did it feel when you made your first $10 million off of that?** Scary. I thought, *‘Man, I don't know that we can run this at $20 million. I’ve never ran a $20 million business.’* If you're feeling imposter syndrome, it's a good sign. You want to feel it at almost every step of the game because that means you're pushing it as far as you can. We didn't celebrate it because we've never really felt successful or like we've made it. It's always felt like day one. And it's always been like, *‘Oh, look how far we've come! Yeah, but we've got to figure this thing out.’* P.S. Every week I interview entrepreneurs to inspire to inspire the next generation of founders. For more stories like this one, feel free to subscribe here.

The project: converting an AMC Ghostbusters ghost trap popcorn bucket into a dynamic prop featuring: * various LED sequences on different parts of the prop * a servo to open and close the doors * sound effects played through a self-contained speaker * triggering a mini fog machine to emphasize lights * (maybe) a rumble motor for added effect The wokwi link: The issues: A lot of these components don't like to play nice with each other because of the board's timer. I'm using a Trinket Pro 5v and so far I've been successful at triggering the door servo mech and the LED sequences without any conflicts. I added an LM386 amplifier and a speaker to push wav files using the TMRpcm library and that's when things start to break down. By its lonesome, the speaker works great, but combining the LEDs and/or the servo functions in the sketch brings about screeching from the speaker, "noise" from the LED sequences doing their thing and, the servo jittering like a nervous chihuahua on his 3rd cup of coffee. Instead of using Servo.h, I switched to ServoTimer2.h as was suggested to others around the net in order to break the sharing of the timer, but I'm not seeing any difference in behaviour and I suspect the library is just old and no longer supported. One option I'm considering is to offload the audio playback to a DF Miniplayer or knock-off board, but I've not used them before and wanted to get the opinion of more experienced makers before ordering a few. I'm open to any other suggestions as well. A quick note about the wokwi - it doesn't include the LM386 module or that I'm powering the components externally, NOT from the arduino pin. Ultimately, the plan is to put this on a LiPo. And finally, here's the code (also found on the wokwi). #include <FastLED.h> #include <ServoTimer2.h> //#include <Servo.h> #include <SD.h> #include <TMRpcm.h> #define SD_ChipSelectPin 4 #define SPEAKER_PIN 9 TMRpcm audio; #define BAR_LEDS 5 #define RING_LEDS 8 #define BAR_PIN 8 #define RING_PIN 5 ServoTimer2 doorServo; //Servo doorServo; CRGB LED_bar[BAR_LEDS]; CRGB LED_ring[RING_LEDS]; uint16_t brightnessScale = 150; uint16_t indexScale = 100; DEFINE_GRADIENT_PALETTE( es_emerald_dragon_16_gp ) {   0, 255, 255, 255,   127,  198, 224, 112,   204,  106, 255,  0,   255,  25, 52, 77 }; DEFINE_GRADIENT_PALETTE( gr65_hult_gp ) {   0, 255, 255, 255,   48, 108, 4, 133,   89, 143, 24, 172,   160,   15, 237, 137,   216,   255, 45, 0,   255,   0, 0, 0 }; CRGBPalette16 greenPal = es_emerald_dragon_16_gp; CRGBPalette16 purplePal = gr65_hult_gp; // #############   GLobal Vars ############## int trapOpen = 0; int openAngle = 60; int closeAngle = 120; unsigned long lastTick; unsigned long currentMillis; // #############   Door Vars ############## // #############   Light Bar Vars ############## int barHeight = 0; int len; int prevLen; int lightMode = 0; // #############   Pedal Vars ############## int pedalPin = A0; int reading = 100.0; int pedalSum; int pedalAvg; void setup() {   Serial.begin(57600);   if(!SD.begin(4)){     Serial.println("SD Init failed");     while(1);   }   //audio setup   audio.speakerPin = SPEAKER_PIN;   audio.setVolume(5);   audio.disable();   audio.quality(1);   audio.loop(0);   //Serial.println("resetting");   FastLED.addLeds<WS2812, BAR_PIN, GRB>(LED_bar, BAR_LEDS);   FastLED.addLeds<WS2812, RING_PIN, GRB>(LED_ring, RING_LEDS);   FastLED.setBrightness(84);   fill_solid(LED_bar, BAR_LEDS, CRGB::Black);   fill_solid(LED_ring, RING_LEDS, CRGB::Black);   FastLED.show();   //doorServo.write(closeAngle);   doorServo.write(map(closeAngle, 0, 180, 750, 2250));   doorServo.attach(6); } void loop() {   animateBar(lightMode);   animateRing(lightMode);   if (trapOpen == 0) {     EVERY_N_MILLIS(100) {       pedalCheck();     }   } else {     if (millis() - currentMillis > 5000) {       closeTrap();     }   } } void animateBar(int mode) {   switch (mode) {     case 0:       //idle       if (!prevLen) prevLen = 0;       if (!len) len = BAR_LEDS - 1;       if (len > prevLen) {         for (int i = prevLen; i <= len; i++) {           for (int j = 0; j < 256; j += 8) {             LED_bar[i] = CHSV(40, 255, j);             FastLED.show();           }         }       } else if (prevLen > len) {         for (int i = prevLen; i >= len; i--) {           for (int j = 255; j > 0; j -= 8) {             LED_bar[i] = CHSV(40, 255, j);             FastLED.show();           }         }       }       prevLen = len;       len = random(0, BAR_LEDS - 1);       break;     case 1:       //alarm       //Serial.println("alarm");       EVERY_N_MILLIS(100) {         for (int k = 0; k < BAR_LEDS; k++) {           int l = random(1, 3);           l == 1 ?

DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE FOR LAWN. THE GUY IS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. SEE BRB REVIEWS PLEASE. AVOID AT ALL COST ON GREENPAL!!!! IGNORE THE 5 STARS PLEASE...... please read BBB

I like that I can just hop on the app, post what I need, and I'll have something like 4 or 5 fairly responsive service providers sending me messages and/or bids reasonably quickly. Plus I like the escrow GreenPal provides - the providers know they're not going to get paid if they don't do the work.

Good question. How pricing compares depends a lot on your area, the size and condition of your yard, and the providers available locally. GreenPal is designed to give you visibility into what multiple local pros are charging at the same time, so you can compare bids before choosing one. In some markets that results in competitive pricing, and in others rates may align with what you’d find by calling around manually. Over a full season, the biggest differences tend to come not just from the per-visit price but from communication, consistency, and reliability. Many homeowners find value in having scheduling, payments, and provider communication all handled through a single platform, but actual costs can vary by region and service frequency. Comparing a handful of bids in your specific area is usually the best way to get a realistic sense of what pricing will look like for your yard.

Does GreenPal pros in my area offer winter-specific services like leaf cleanup, winter pruning, or snow removal? If so, do you recommend scheduling now or on-demand?

Old-school can work, but it’s inconsistent. GreenPal made comparing quotes and locking in someone with reviews way simpler. No perfect system, but way fewer no-shows for me.

They care for my lawn like their own. GreenPal values great service and it is greatly appreciated.

GreenPal takes great pride in providing the best service and with this comment, it only confirms. They go above and beyond.

GreenPal is so great, they really go above any beyond to provide the best options for lawn care.

Yes, I would imagine it's easier in a rural area. I guess I've gotten lucky for being urban; outside of GreenPal, I can usually get recommendations from neighbors who often have yard work other than routine weekly mowing done.

GreenPal caters to your needs. If you want the clippings in your grass, they should do that for you. It is very great for the grass.

Customer here, I love greenpal it makes it easier for me to manage my lawncare and takes stress off of me.

I have loved everyone that we've used through green pal, but at the end of the day, they're still strangers. I would much rather them not have my number

Yup, that is my exact perspective as well. You can really do yourself a disservice if you try to resolve an issue through GreenPal but only have the problematic communication through text messages/other message platforms rather than the app. It may be something they cannot resolve since it didn't technically 'happen' on the app. Best way to protect yourself as a customer/provider is keep it all under one roof.
