The Harvest Group is sitting down with the PROs from the industry to find out the secrets to their success! Tune in to learn more from these professionals here!
Robotics and the Changing Landscape Work Force
Entrepreneurialism is the heart and soul of the lawn and landscape industry. The industry is full of stories of people starting their company out of the back of a truck, diversifying into multi-faceted companies and adopting technologies to improve productivity and grow the bottom line.
Passion and creativity drive business owners to be successful. Yet, labor challenges often stand in the way of selling jobs they are capable of performing, and reach their revenue and profit goals.
What role can technology play in solving the labor issue? Will robotics – popular on home lawns – stand up to the rigors of commercial mowing?
In the latest edition of the Harvest Leaders’ Sit Down Series, a virtual, in-depth conversational “sit-downs” with business leaders from the landscape industry and other service industries, Harvester Cindy Code will sit down with Isaac Roberts, co-founder of Scythe Robotics. The sit-down is scheduled for Wednesday, November 18 at 1:30 p.m. EDT.
Isaac grew up in his family’s irrigation business and knows all about the labor intensity of the green industry. He and his partners also understand robotics and how autonomous mowing can transform the traditional landscape crew and revolutionize data collection.
During our conversation with Isaac, you’re going to enjoy learning about –
- How and why autonomous mowers will make an impact on commercial mowing?
- How much of the landscape business can be realistically automated?
- How can contractors drive more revenue and improve cost efficiencies with autonomous mowers?
- How soon can autonomous mowers take the pressure off contractors when it comes to labor?
- The big question – will autonomous mowers be affordable for contractors? Will they be as expensive as electric cars (i.e. Tesla)?
- Could robotics shift the image of the landscape industry and attract a younger, more tech-driven workforce?
- How can robotics reduce the industry’s carbon footprint?
- How will autonomous mowers, as well as battery and electric hand-held equipment integrate in landscape crews on the ground level?
Grab a coffee or lunch, sit back and enjoy our time together. If you can’t make the start time, just register and receive a recording of the entire program the next day. This is a free webinar offered by The Harvest Group.
