Landscape Contractors Insurance Services (LCIS), Fresno, Calif., is partnering with The Harvest Group.
The alliance will provide LCIS customers with business training and customized consulting. LCIS specializes in insuring landscape contractors in 22 states. The Harvest Group is an international business consultancy with more than 80 years of combined landscape business experience. It is currently doing business in 42 states and 5 countries
“This strategic partnership is a no-brainer,” said Kim Ayala, president and CEO of LCIS. “We feel there is incredible added value for our clients who will be able to draw on The Harvesters deeply imbedded knowledge in the business of landscaping.”
“We also see other synergies as well,” added David Bloodgood, vice president of sales. “Not only will The Harvest Group help our clients, but they are going to help educate our people with a much deeper understanding of what our customers go through every day.”
LCIS customers will be able to access The Harvest Academy, an online program providing business tools, strategies and business support from The Harvesters at a discount. Participation in teleconferences, webinars and regional seminars throughout the year also will be available with the objective of helping landscape contractors build better businesses and make more money.
“We are looking forward to helping all those landscapers insured by LCIS not only work safer but be better business people,” said Bill Arman, partner in The Harvest Group.
