How Delta Landscape Found a Stronger, More Reliable Partner by Moving from Aspire to LMN

Delta’s Journey from Aspire Complexity to LMN Partnership

Location: California

Service Focus: Commercial landscape maintenance, irrigation, and enhancements

Annual Revenue: $5M–$8M

Team Size: 56 employees

Previous System: Aspire

Delta Landscape is a family-owned California company with deep roots in the industry. Founder Nick Voresis started the business in 1980 after immigrating from Greece, and his son Paul Voresis quite literally grew up on job sites, learning the trade from the ground up.

For decades, Delta Landscape was predominantly an installation business. But over time, maintenance started to stand out as a stronger path forward. What began as a smaller division serving properties Delta Landscape had installed gained traction, and in 2021, with Paul now the owner and operator, the company made the bold move to step away from new construction and go fully service-focused.

As Paul put it, “In 2022, it was the first year in the history of Delta Landscape where we had zero revenue from new construction, and we went 100% maintenance.”

That decision was about building a business around recurring work, more consistency, and a better quality of life.

The Turning Point: Where Growth Exposes Software Limits

As Delta grew its maintenance business, spreadsheets and disconnected processes became harder to manage. Estimating, approvals, and tracking work across the business were becoming more difficult to standardize. As Paul put it, “We were getting to a scale where it just felt like we had a spreadsheet for everything, and we couldn’t even keep track of where all the spreadsheets were.” 

They needed a system that could support growth without adding more manual work or approval bottlenecks.

Why Delta Made a Change

Before moving to LMN, Delta Landscape was using Aspire. At first, Aspire helped show what connected software could do for the business: improve reporting, increase visibility between the office and the field, and bring more structure to operations.

But over time, as Delta Landscape grew, Paul felt Aspire had become too complex for the way the company wanted to work day to day. “The system seems overly complex,” he said. “I wanted less complexity.”

Delta Landscape was not looking to go backward. They still wanted the benefits of a business management platform, but they needed one that felt easier to use and came with the level of support and service they needed for the next stage of growth.

That became the lens for the search: find a platform that could help Delta Landscape scale, give the team the reporting they needed, and feel simpler to use day to day.

Why LMN Was the Better Fit

Delta chose LMN for practical reasons:

  1. A better fit for the way the team wanted to work,
  2. Stronger 1:1 support for their team, and
  3. Pricing that made more sense for the business. 

Before committing to LMN, Paul even interviewed his onboarding rep, Dante. That gave him added confidence that he was not just choosing a new platform — he was choosing a partner who could help him make the transition successfully.

As Paul put it, “The path to scaling is simplicity and we needed a partner to take us there. LMN is the path for us!”

That idea shaped the rollout. Delta Landscape built their use of LMN to be streamlined and consistent, so the team had a clearer way to estimate, schedule, and manage work. “We wanted simplicity, and we got simplicity.”

Dante and the onboarding experience helped reinforce that decision. For Delta Landscape, the value was not only in the software itself, but in having the training, support, and guidance to get up and running with confidence.

LMN is Already Producing Results

After the switch, Delta Landscape focused on building more standardized workflows inside LMN. They now have:

  • Confidence in their partner. Paul and the team at Delta Landscape feel the support of the team at Granum, knowing we’re here to help and deliver value through support and training. 
  • A more consistent estimating process. Before LMN, different account managers could approach the same scope in very different ways. With calculators built into LMN, Delta created a stronger baseline for estimating and proposal creation, which means proposals are consistent across the company. As Paul explained, “There’s very little discussion around proposal approval in LMN, because we built out the system that creates the proposals.”
  • Time back for the team. LMN’s consistency has created time savings for the business. As Paul put it, the team got “Tons of time back” in processes that were previously manual.
  • Better visibility, without the bloat. Delta also needed better financial visibility as the business scaled. “We just really need LMN and QuickBooks to tie out to the penny,” Paul said.

For Delta Landscape, software was not just about record-keeping. It needed to support better decision-making, clearer reporting, and tighter control over the numbers as the company grew. 

A System That Fits Delta Landscape’s Next Chapter

For Delta, moving to LMN was part of a broader shift toward a more scalable maintenance business. With simpler workflows, more consistent estimating, stronger support, and clearer visibility into the numbers, the team found a system that better matched the next stage of growth. 

As Paul summed it up: “We’re super happy with the decision. I was looking for a more simple system, better support, at a more reasonable price, and I got all of that and more with LMN.”
