Build your landscape design business properly — from day one
You’ve got the skills.
You’ve done the study.
You might even have your first clients.
But no one showed you how to actually run the business side of it.
That’s where this comes in.
How It Works
Each week focuses on one core area of your business.
Week 1:
Set-Up, Compliance & Insurance
Get your foundations right from the start:
- business set-up (Australia-wide guidance)
- scope boundary (what you will and won’t do)
- compliance awareness
- insurance understanding
This is where most people make early mistakes — we fix that.
Week 2:
Your Offer, Pricing & Money Systems
Stop guessing your fees:
- build your service ladder
- set up a paid consult
- understand your numbers
- create a simple pricing structure
You’ll stop feeling unsure every time you quote.
Week 3:
Brand, Presence & Tools
Look credible without overthinking it:
- simple brand setup
- website / portfolio basics
- social presence that actually works
- tools + file systems
You don’t need perfect — you need clear.
Week 4:
Clients, Paperwork & Boundaries
Protect your time and avoid disputes:
- quotes that are clear and professional
- inclusions/exclusions (no grey areas)
- variation process (no unpaid extras)
- onboarding steps
This is what separates professionals from amateurs.
Week 5:
Momentum, Referrals & Growth
Keep your business moving:
- weekly action rhythm
- portfolio + proof strategy
- referral + testimonial systems
- monthly business check
This is how you stay consistent without burnout.
What you’ll get:
5 structured sessions (step-by-step)
Launchpad Playbook (your working document)
Templates, scripts, and checklists

FAQ's
No : it’s better to get a solid foundation in college or university and then move forward with Your Landscape Journey to add to your skill set
Absolutely.
If you’re in your first year (or even a few years in) and things feel a bit messy — pricing, clients, paperwork — this will help you tidy it up and get a clear structure in place.
No — this focuses on business and professional practice.
It’s about how you run your studio: pricing, clients, scope, systems, and avoiding common mistakes.
Yes.
The core framework is global and applies anywhere.
Where relevant, I’ll point out Australia-specific examples, but the principles (pricing, scope, client process, systems) are universal.
No.
You can start from scratch — we’ll guide you through what needs to be set up and what can wait.
If you’re already set up, you’ll refine what you’ve got.
Yes — but they’re practical and simple.
You’ll get wording, examples, and checklists you can actually use straight away — not overwhelming documents you’ll never open again.
Allow around 1–2 hours per week.
That includes working through the Playbook and taking action.
Everything is designed to be practical and manageable alongside work or study.
This is a structured program delivered over 5 weeks, designed so you can implement as you go.
(You can adjust this line depending on how you run it — live, recorded, or hybrid.)
That’s okay.
This isn’t about keeping up — it’s about getting the work done properly.
You can move through it at your own pace and come back to each section when needed.
Yes — but not in a gimmicky way.
You’ll set up:
- a clear offer
- a simple way for people to book
- and a repeatable way to stay visible
That’s what leads to consistent enquiries.
Yes.
You’ll build a basic pricing structure so you’re not guessing, discounting, or feeling unsure every time you send a quote.
That’s common.
Most courses are either too generic or too theoretical.
This is different — it’s based on:
- real projects
- real client situations
- and what actually works in practice
You’ll be applying it straight away, not just listening.
No.
We focus on simple, accessible tools.
If you can use email, basic documents, and one design platform — you’re fine.
You’ll have:
- a working business structure
- a clear process
- and a plan to keep going
From there, you can step into more advanced support if you want — but you won’t feel stuck anymore.
Yes — that’s exactly when it matters most.
Getting this right early will save you:
- time
- stress
- and a lot of rework later
Completely normal.
You’re stepping into something new.
This program is designed to give you clarity and confidence, one step at a time — so you’re not trying to work it all out alone.
