Mark Bradley
Founder, LeanScaper
Built LMN and LeanScaper, transforming the industry by helping contractors evolve from operators to CEOs.
Join 800 landscapers at the LeanScaper Finance Intensive in Dallas, Sept. 15–16, and build a three year plan with AI, robotics, and smart investments to scale profits and increase your company's value.



                  Book a quick meeting with one of our event guides, and we will set you up with free or discounted tickets for your first experience.

Margins are eroding, labor costs are rising, and middle management is disappearing. The old way of running a landscaping company simply won’t hold up in the years ahead.
Businesses that stay tied to outdated models will see shrinking profits and declining valuations, while competitors who adapt to AI, robotics, and automation will command 3–5X higher valuations and capture the best opportunities in the market.
Surviving in the next era of landscaping means more than just cutting costs — it requires building a tech-enabled business model that can grow stronger, scale faster, and operate with far less risk.


At the LeanScaper Dallas Finance Intensive, you’ll focus on building the future of your business. Over two powerful days, you’ll hear from top industry leaders and seasoned experts while you redesign your financial model for the AI era—factoring in robotics, electrification, and automation. You’ll leave with a 3 year rolling forecast, a clear investment strategy for automation with fast payback, and the tools to scale profits while boosting your company’s long term value.
