In the tree care vertical, 55% of proposals were accepted by customers, representing 46% of the total proposed job value. Tree care jobs in 2019 had an average value of $1,759 and a median value of $800 compared to an average value of $1,980 and a median value of $708 in 2018.

In the landscape vertical, which includes general landscaping, landscape design/build, landscape maintenance, landscape supply, and lawn care, proposals were accepted by customers 64% of the time, representing 44% of the total proposed job value. Landscape jobs in 2019 had an average value of $1,558 and a median value of $577 compared to an average value of $2,324 and a median value of $1,000 in 2018.

"Our goal with this report is to provide the green industry with insight into acceptance rates and job values nationwide, so that businesses can measure themselves against their peers and assess what changes may grow revenue and increase productivity. We know there are tangible things green industry companies can do to improve acceptance rates and job values, including automating various aspects of the bid, project management and billing processes.
