New LMN Customer Portal unveiled

The portal will allow landscapers to process payments, review job information and connect with customers in real time.

MARKHAM, ONTARIO - Customer service is king in the business world and leads to customer loyalty and retention, as well as increased revenues. LMN, a business management software for landscape companies, has launched a new customer portal to help change the way landscapers run their businesses.
55% of customers report having to use two or more communications channels to contact a company before an issue is resolved. With a branded Customer Portal, landscapers no longer have to chase customers or jump from site to site to resolve payments. Instead, LMN users can now streamline their processing time by invoicing customers and accepting credit cards online, plus manage due dates immediately after the work is completed.

The payment feature makes the process from invoicing to processing payments easier for landscapers and currently allows users to offer the option of both credit and debit card payments.

"We've collected a lot of feedback from our LMN customers," said Mike Lyseki, co-founder and CTO of LMN. "One of the biggest requests was a customer portal feature that allowed them to enhance the customer experience. LMN users can communicate with their customers in a whole new way, with real-time information sharing, photo and schedule sharing, as well as streamline collections and cash flow with online payments. This type of process can completely change your business."
90% of Americans use customer service as a factor in deciding whether or not to do business with a company. The Customer Portal allows businesses to create a transparent relationship with their customers by minimizing the need for phone calls and letting customers to see progress statuses in real time.

The software allows landscapers to brand the portal with their logo to look like an extension of their own website. Customers can see the contractors work in real-time while reviewing job information, invoices and make payments at any time.
