Case Study: Put’s Ponds and Gardens achieves streamlined operations and team engagement with Jobber

Building a Flourishing Pond Business Lessons from a Lifetime of Entrepreneurship

Put’s Ponds, a 35-year-old pond installation and maintenance business in Chesterfield, MI run by Dan Put with a five-person crew, faced the challenge of moving from hands-on day-to-day installs to running and growing the company. Seasonal cashflow, paper-based scheduling, late-night invoicing, and the need to trust a foreman to run jobs made it hard for Dan to step back and focus on business strategy and team management.

By adopting Jobber for mobile scheduling, real-time job updates and materials tracking, plus leveraging the Aquascape install system and its installer community, Put’s Ponds streamlined operations and improved cashflow with pre-season sales and discounts. The result: more efficient invoicing, reliable foreman-led job completion, greater team engagement, filled schedules, and the freedom for Dan to work on growth while maintaining high-quality, warrantied work.
