# Be the designer behind your town's best yards. > Be the landscape designer your town already knows. Bring your town its news every week, and when they're ready for a new yard, they call you. People plan a new yard all winter, and they book the designer they already know. Every week you bring your town its news, and they come to know you and trust you. We build the website, the newsletter and the social accounts, and send you the stories and the exact words to say.

People like the pictures and scroll on, because a photo doesn't tell them who you are or how you work. A yard is personal, and people hire the designer they feel like they know. Show up every week with the news from your own town, and when they're ready for a new patio or a whole new backyard, they already have a name in mind. Everyone else posts pretty pictures. You bring your town its news. ## Stories only a landscape designer tells this well. Most weeks you tell the town's news. Some weeks the news is growing outside, and nobody explains it better. ### The village is taking down parkway ash trees. Which blocks are next, what the village plans to plant instead, and what to do about the ash in your own yard. ### Watering limits start Monday. Which days you can water, what happens if you don't follow them, and how to keep a lawn alive through a dry stretch. ### The library is planting a native garden. What's going in, when volunteers can help, and why the plants were picked for our soil and our winters. ## One backyard pays for months. A full design and install can be many thousands of dollars, and it's a yard the client will look at every day for years. They don't pick off a price sheet. They pick the designer they trust to get it right. Be that designer. A homeowner who watched you explain the ash trees and the watering limits already trusts your eye. When they're ready, they don't shop around. They call you. ## Most marketing buys attention. We build trust. We've made more than 20,000 local videos, and the ones that bring in customers all do the same few things. Here's the difference. | What most landscape designers do | What we do with you | | --- | --- | | **Buys attention.** Ads, mailers and paid leads. It all stops the day you stop paying. | **Builds trust.** Your face and your town's news, every week. It adds up, and it stays with you. | | **Talks about you.** Specials, before-and-afters, "call me today." People have seen it a hundred times and scroll past. | **Talks about them.** What's happening in their town. People watch, and they remember who told them. | | **Chases views.** Trends and sounds that strangers three states away watch. Views aren't customers. | **Reaches neighbors.** The people in your town, the only ones who can actually hire you. | | **Buries the point.** A slow intro and a logo. The scroll wins in two seconds. | **Answers first.** One real question per video, answered in the first sentence. That's what makes a stranger trust you. | | **Shows up when it can.** Twenty ideas posted once, then nothing for a month. | **Shows up every week.** The same rhythm, week after week, until your town expects you. | | **Disappears.** A post is gone in two days, and AI can't watch a video. | **Keeps working.** What you say lands on your town's website, where search engines and AI can read it for years. | ## Three steps. Step 01 ### Get the week's stories. Every week we send you what happened in your town, already checked, with the finished script for each one. Keep the good ones, skip the rest. Step 02 ### Hit record. Read the exact words, in your voice, at the length you record. Your opener and your sign-off are already in the script. Step 03 ### Post everywhere. Post the video everywhere at once with Unbusied, which comes with your seat. The same story goes on your town's website and into its newsletter. ## One price.

When would I record? Once a week, in one sitting. We send the stories with the exact words already written, so you can record a week of videos at once. In the slow months, you can even record ahead. ### Do the videos show my designs? Mostly no. Most weeks you tell your town its news: what's opening, what's closing, what the village board decided. When the news is about trees, water or gardens, you're the one who explains it. ### What do I post in the winter? The town's news, same as always. The news doesn't stop when the ground freezes, so you keep showing up all winter, right when people are planning their spring projects. ### My work is high end. Will this make me look ordinary? No. Bringing the town its news makes you known, not cheap. People hire designers they trust, and showing up every week with care is how that trust gets built. ### Can another landscape designer in my town do this too? No. Each town has one host. Once it's you, we don't build the same thing for anyone else in your town. ### Who owns the website and the accounts? We do. We build, host and run them, which is why there's no build fee. You're the face and the voice of the brand. If you ever leave, the videos you made stay up and a new host can step in, so your town keeps its news. ### What does it cost? $999 a month, month to month. That includes the website, the newsletter, the social accounts, every week's stories and scripts, Unbusied for posting, and a video chat with us every month. ## Nobody in your town has claimed this yet. Your town will know you before they need you. Each town gets one host, so it might as well be you. [Apply to host your town](https://heylocals.app/apply) $999 a month. One host per town.
