What Values Knowledge
Years ago the green industry was much more simple. Fewer new plants were
being imported and the trade was therefore using older more tried and true
varieties. Therefore we had few imported insects and disease to worry about,
that meant controls were more consistent. Also there were fewer
environmental issues or concerns for us to be working with. Problems from
construction activities were not considered. As we all know we live in a more
complex world today.
Hence The Term "Consultation"
Consultation can be simple and quick "the plant is dead or almost dead and
cannot be saved", or it can entail a degree of knowledge. The issue, whether it
will be trees, shrubs or lawns there can be much to decipher.
What is the difference between a free estimate and
consultation?
A free estimate arises when a person says, "How much will it cost to prune or
remove this tree, or how much will it cost to prune these plants?"
You know what you want - You just want a cost factor to consider
On the other hand, many times there are issues other than that which you
don't understand and feel you need important information about, this breaks
away from the traditional "free estimate" to a "pay as you go" consultation.
After all, knowledge does not come easy! Once you become our client, any
consultation becomes part of the service.
