Free Landscaping Tools for Small Business Owners

Running a landscaping business means balancing a lot — scheduling jobs, managing quotes, staying organized, keeping track of equipment, and finding time to grow your business. Luckily, you don’t have to tackle it all on your
own.

Thryv® offers free landscaping tools designed specifically for small business owners like you. And that’s exactly what we’ll cover in this guide.

The top 8 free tools to use to simplify your landscaping business

These tools for landscaping businesses are free, easy to use, and built for small businesses owners that want to stay organized, look professional, and automate more of their daily operations.

1. Estimate Generator

Create professional, branded estimates quickly — whether you’re in the office or standing in the customer’s yard. Just enter your job details, save the polished PDF, and send it by email or text. It’s a fast, simple way to quote jobs accurately and look more credible to your customers.

2. Invoice Generator

Stop chasing payments with handwritten invoices or disconnected apps. Our free invoice generator helps you build professional, easy-to-read invoices in minutes. Just plug in your information, download the PDF, and share it with your customer. You’ll look organized — and get paid faster.

3. Job Cost Calculator

Not sure if your pricing covers your costs? The landscaping calculator walks you through labor, materials, overhead, and markup — so you can price jobs with confidence. It’s fast, mobile-friendly, and helps protect your bottom line on every project.

4. Inventory Tracking Spreadsheet

Keeping track of tools, bags of mulch, and supplies can be a headache. Our free inventory tracking spreadsheet lets you monitor everything from mulch and equipment to plants and fertilizers. Use dropdown menus and pre-filled examples to stay organized and avoid overbuying.

5. Job Tracking Spreadsheet

See how your business is performing at a glance. The job tracking spreadsheet tracks active jobs, revenue, costs, and profits — all in one place. You’ll know which jobs are finished, which need follow-up, and how your landscaping business is performing overall.

6. Online Presence Scan

If customers can’t find you online, they can’t call you — even if you’re the best landscaper in town. The online presence scan shows how your business appears across the web, highlights outdated or missing listings, and gives tips to improve your visibility.

7. Payment Processing Calculator

Payment fees can add up, especially when you’re not sure what different processors charge. The payment processing calculator helps you compare providers, estimate costs, and avoid hidden fees that can eat into your profits.

8. Google Review Link Generator

Your reputation matters. Positive reviews help attract new customers, but asking for them isn’t always easy. Thryv’s Google Review link generator creates a direct link to your review page, making it simple for happy customers to share their experience and boost your credibility.

These free landscaping tools help you streamline your business, stay organized, and create a smoother experience for your customers — all without extra costs.
