Your green industry business changes fast. Marketing tools change just as quickly.

Another point that came up toward the end of of a recent podcast conversation is how quickly things evolve, especially in digital marketing.

ARTICLE AND PODCAST IN COMMENTS BELOW ⬇️

New tools, new platforms, and new behaviors can shift what works and what does not.

James Conley, an account manager with both field and sales experience, summed it up simply:

“Some of the things we do now… may not have even existed a couple of years ago. It changes fast.”

That pace of change can be frustrating, especially when something that worked well in the past starts to lose effectiveness.

A marketing strategy can look solid on paper and still fail in practice. It is how consistently and thoughtfully it is executed. This shows up in small ways:

- Campaigns that are planned but not fully implemented

- Messaging that is inconsistent across channels

- Follow-through slows down once the initial work is done

Marketing agency account managers play a central role in preventing that kind of drift. They are the ones connecting different pieces of the marketing effort and making sure things continue moving forward.

They take the strategy and make it come to life. They balance expectations and priorities. They make sure the ENTIRE marketing agency team is aligned.

"What does Year 2 look like?" This is one of the most common questions we get from prospective clients. This is how we adjust the strategy.

It all starts by being proactive.

Marketing agency account managers, like James Conley, have dozens of conversations with clients throughout the year. As his ear is to the ground, he keeps notes about specific needs.

There are also always "good to have's" that don't make it into each year. We keep tabs on those, too.

Then there are changes in the field. Different divisions have emerging needs.

We meet as a team and create a list of talking points. Then we present them to our client and outline the opportunities and priorities.

The result is a customized plan for the next year that meets their unique needs and situation. No canned programs. No cookie-cutter solutions.

THAT is how you partner with a green industry marketing agency. Is it your current experience? If not, we'd love to talk.

Imagine breaking ground on a six-figure landscape installation, only to watch months of careful planning be interrupted by underground hazards you didn’t see until excavation began.

Marketing plans can be similarly disrupted, as changes in consumer behavior, new technologies, and other business realities force you to change a marketing plan you thought was set in stone.

Just like you wouldn’t plant grass during a late freeze, your account manager shouldn’t stick to a marketing plan that no longer accommodates your business’s needs.

FULL article and podcast that inspired it in the comments below ⬇️

Account manager Kyle Larson described this in a straightforward way when talking about campaign planning:

“We always put a plan together… and without fail, it usually gets adjusted at some point during the season.”

That adjustment process is where a lot of the real work happens. It’s less about rewriting strategy and more about paying attention to what is actually happening in the business and making sure marketing reflects it.

Is your marketing agency shoving you into a canned program and not adjusting to the real conditions of your business?

"Ok...now what the $@ #* am I supposed to do with this marketing report?" Have you ever gotten an automated report from your agency with NO explanation?

It's common to not be clear on if results are good or bad. It's normal to wonder if there's something you should be concerned about.

One of the traits of a great marketing agency account manager is COMMUNICATING what is important to YOU. They don't just send a dashboard or report.

Each month, James Conley and the other account managers at Landscape Leadership® take 5-7 minutes recording a video explaining results, things to keep an eye on, and ideas they have for future impact.

It's one of the ways they create transparency and collaboration with our clients. We're grateful for the way they approach these relatioships!

Over time, the gap widens between what was planned and what actually happens. When that gulf appears, your marketing agency account manager SHOULD be ready to step in.

Some service divisions don’t grow as quickly as you hoped.

Priorities shift inside your business.

Opportunities come up that weren’t part of the original scope.

Over time, the gap widens between what was planned and what actually happens When that gulf appears, your marketing agency account manager SHOULD be ready to step in.

Check out part 3 in our series! "Strategy & Tactics: Marketing Account Managers That Drive Results" digs into how we customize strategies for lawn care, landscaping, tree service, and pest control companies (and what a GREAT marketing account manager SHOULD be doing for you).
