Land It Podcast
Welcome to the Land It Podcast!
This is the podcast built for the business owners driving the machines, clearing the land, and getting the real work done. Brought to you by Blue Goat Land Leads, we shine a light on the land services — land clearing, excavation, and demolition — and the business owners who keep it moving.
Every episode brings you real conversations with contractors who’ve been in the trenches — from the jobsite to the office. We talk equipment, business growth, and how to land more work without wasting time or money. You might even learn some golden nuggets you can apply in your business no matter what stage of growth you're in.
No fluff. No sales pitches. Just straight talk with folks who know the grind and have something to say.
If you live for heavy machines and hustle, you’re in the right place. We want to help you land those big goals, land those big jobs, and just LAND IT!

Price Land Clearing & Forestry Mulching Jobs On Site in Seconds | Carson Crews with LandWorkPro
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most land clearing and forestry mulching jobs are not lost on price. They are lost to the guy who quoted on the spot. LandWorkPro builds the bid off your own rates while you walk the property, then sends it, gets it signed, and takes the deposit before you leave the driveway.

Carson Crews runs Clear Ground Land Co. in Middle Tennessee with his dad Jamie, a heavy equipment operator with more than 30 years behind the sticks. Carson handles the back end: marketing, lead flow, and the schedule. A few bids in, he got tired of duct taping Jobber, GoHighLevel, and a Google spreadsheet together just to price a job, so he built the tool he wanted. That tool is LandWorkPro.
WHAT LANDWORKPRO DOES
It started as a pricing and bidding tool and grew into a scheduler, CRM, pipeline, and expense tracker. The two features Josh kept coming back to were voice to bid and the satellite map. Voice to bid lets you hit record while walking the property with the customer, then builds the quote from your own onboarding numbers. The satellite map lets you draw the exact work area on the customer's parcel, and that marked photo rides along on the quote, which kills the he said she said before anybody signs. Every account gets its own business number, so the bid texts itself the moment you approve it.
THE PART THAT APPLIES TO EVERYBODY
The most useful stretch of this episode has nothing to do with software. Carson breaks down the costs operators leave out of their day rate: maintenance, teeth on the mulcher head, insurance, marketing spend, and the line items that explain why a contractor can run twice the jobs and barely move his profit. His advice for anyone flying blind: figure out your true daily cost before you run your first job, because setting the foundation wrong is hard to dig out of later. Then do good work and go a mile past what you quoted, because in this trade reputation moves faster than marketing does.
