The Challenge

Where they started

Verde Landscaping was doing excellent work but losing bids to competitors who showed up better online. Their website was functional but generic. More critically, when homeowners asked ChatGPT or searched Google for landscaping recommendations in Phoenix, Verde didn't appear — despite being one of the better-reviewed landscaping companies in the area. They wanted to be the obvious choice for Phoenix homeowners researching landscaping online.

What We Did

Our approach

01

Rebuilt the website with service-specific pages for each offering: lawn maintenance, landscape design, irrigation, hardscaping, and seasonal cleanup

02

Implemented comprehensive schema markup including LocalBusiness, Service, Review, and FAQ schemas

03

Built an AI search optimization strategy targeting common landscaping questions in the Phoenix market

04

Created a content hub with 12 landscaping guides specifically written to be cited in AI answers and featured in Google AI Overviews

05

Launched Google Ads targeting high-intent commercial landscaping keywords

06

Built an Instagram and Facebook presence around before/after project photos — the highest-converting content type for landscaping

The AI search optimization was something no other agency even mentioned to us. Now we show up in ChatGPT and Google AI answers. Our founder keeps texting us screenshots every time he finds us in an AI response. That's where the future is — and Lion Growth nailed it.
