Is your tree care business built to grow?

Take the 2-minute quiz and see where your operation is strong, where it is getting stuck, and what to improve first.

You do great work in the field. But when estimating, scheduling, crew communication, tree inventory, invoicing, and client follow-up are not running as smoothly as they could, growth gets harder than it needs to be. This scorecard gives you a personalized score across 6 core parts of your business, plus a clearer idea of what to fix first.

What you’ll measure

Sales Speed

How fast you move from first call to a signed job, so good leads don’t go cold while you’re in a bucket.

People Icon

Field Readiness

Do your crews roll up with clear work orders, site notes, and photos on their phones, or are they calling the office from the driveway?

Job Money Check

Are you sure which jobs make money and which ones eat it, or are you guessing off the top of your head?

Tree Inventory & PHC

Are you keeping a running list of trees and treatments so PHC work comes back every year instead of waiting for the next storm call?

Safety & Site Notes

Are hazards and special instructions written down where the crew can actually see them before they start cutting?

Back-Office “Manual Tax”

How many nights and weekends you’re losing to paperwork, chasing checks, and fixing mistakes that shouldn’t happen.

Why take the scorecard?

You already know how to take care of trees. This shows you how well you’re taking care of the business.

  • Get an honest look at how your estimating, scheduling, tree inventory, invoicing, and follow-up really work day to day.
  • Spot the exact places that are stealing hours from your week — late estimates, confused crews, slow payments, and more.
  • Walk away with a short list of fixes you can start on whether you’re on paper, spreadsheets, or software.
  • See if your setup supports steady PHC and inventory work, not just one-off removals and clean-ups.
