Meet the founder

Enmanuel Tejada
Founder & CEO
Enmanuel Tejada, who goes by Manny, is the founder and CEO of Landscape Maverick, a digital marketing agency focused exclusively on landscaping and hardscaping companies across the United States and Canada. By his own account on the site, he has spent roughly three years working in the niche, a period he describes as deliberate immersion rather than a generalist pivot: attending industry expos, traveling to meet operators in person, and running a podcast that features landscapers and adjacent influencers as guests. That vertical-first posture is the through-line of the firm's positioning. The public founder story on the site is relatively brief and does not detail prior agency experience or formal credentials; most of the narrative centers on his frustration with how landscaping companies routinely lose estimates to lower-priced, lower-quality contractors, and his conviction that better branding and lead systems are the antidote. The thesis that guides Landscape Maverick follows from that: homeowners do not choose landscapers on price alone, they choose on perceived trust, and a credible brand plus a steady flow of qualified inbound leads is what lets operators command higher job values. Tejada has built out a team around that thesis, with named staff covering operations, client success, project management, web development and SEO, and paid media, suggesting the firm has moved past solo-operator stage. The voice across the site is openly founder-led and informal, occasionally profane, and leans more on conviction than on credentialing.
Editorial
Editor’s take
Landscape Maverick positions itself as a true vertical specialist, built exclusively around the landscaping and lawn care industry. The agency's credibility is grounded in the founder's direct category immersion—attending industry expos, cultivating contractor relationships, and hosting a landscaper-focused podcast—distinguishing their expertise from broader home-services generalists. Services span custom website design, Local SEO, and Google and Facebook advertising, with client testimonials citing meaningful gains in search rankings and lead flow.
What they do
Services
Custom Website Design & Development
Builds landscaping-specific websites structured around portfolio depth, service-area pages, and mobile conversion, with branding elements (palette, typography, imagery) tuned to signal high-end craftsmanship rather than budget pricing. Positioned as the centerpiece of the agency's offer and the foundation for SEO and ad traffic.
Local SEO
Optimizes the website, Google Business Profile, and local citations for landscaping and hardscaping search terms across defined service areas. The stated goal is ranking for homeowner-intent queries in the immediate territory rather than broad national visibility.
Google Ads
Runs paid search aimed at high-intent landscaping queries, with campaign structure adjusted for seasonality (spring cleanups, patio season, fall prep) and regional demand. Used as the fast-lane complement to SEO while organic rankings mature.
Facebook Ads
Uses visual-first social campaigns that lean on finished-project photography and video to reach homeowners who aren't actively searching yet. Treated as a brand-and-demand channel for higher-ticket hardscape and outdoor-living projects.
Branding Kit
Delivers a full identity package including logo, color palette, typography, imagery guidelines, and usage rules, built specifically to help landscapers look like a premium operator rather than another unmarked truck. Intended to support pricing power against cheaper competitors.
Automated Lead Flow
Implements lead capture and follow-up automations so that inquiries from ads, SEO, and the website get nurtured in near-real-time, which matters for crews in the field who can't answer calls during the day. Positioned as the conversion layer sitting behind the traffic services.
