How Customer Work Moves Through the Network
Customer Request
LLP receives the request and gathers initial project information.
Work Review
The request is reviewed by location, service, scope, pricing, and capacity.
Provider Offer
An assigned provider accepts, declines, or requests clarification.
Completion
The provider performs and documents the approved work.
Payment
LLP processes the customer payment and provider payout.
Some quotes are prepared before the property is physically inspected. If actual site conditions differ from the submitted information, the provider must report the difference and obtain approval before performing additional work.
How Illinois Landscaping Providers Are Paid
Providers do not purchase LLP customer leads. There is no upfront provider account fee before work begins. Complete payment, adjustment, and documentation terms are reviewed before activation and contained in the signed agreement.
70%
Provider share for completed and collected work quoted through LLP.
80%
Provider share when an authorized provider performs an in-person estimate and successfully closes the customer.
The $30 monthly provider account fee begins with the first calendar month in which the provider receives a Live Order. It is deducted from the first applicable payout of the month.
Requirements for Illinois Landscaping Providers
The strongest providers are the companies that communicate, follow through, document their work, and accurately report their capacity.
- Operating landscaping or outdoor-service business
- Owner or authorized representative
- EIN and W-9 readiness
- Active general liability insurance
- Appropriate transportation, tools, and equipment
- Relevant field experience
- Defined service area and current capacity
- Professional customer communication
- Ability to provide job photos and notes
- Willingness to begin gradually
Additional insurance requirements are reviewed before activation and may depend on the services, workforce, and vehicles used by the provider.
Start With a Few Jobs. Prove the Process. Scale Deliberately.
Some Illinois areas already produce customer requests. Other markets enter development after dependable provider coverage is established. Exact timing and volume vary, but LLP intentionally limits provider count so demand is not unnecessarily diluted.
