Not Your Average Tree Care Company

We were excited to learn all about Blue Ox Tree Service and how they have gotten where they are today, so we sat down with the owner, Eddie Lankas, and the Lead Sales Rep and Partner, Jacob Cervantes

The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that makes Blue Ox Tree Service stand apart from their competitors. They start by focusing on building relationships, and they do that by meeting goals and making people happy. Being a family-owned and -operated business allows them to focus on creating a work environment that people want to be a part of.

They also try to stay ahead of the curve and integrate all of the newest tech into their services. Being open-minded towards new systems helps them to find what works best and makes people happiest.

We asked if they could tell us a bit about their business’ mission. They told us:

“[Our mission is] beautifying Lincoln, one neighbor at a time. We are all part of a community here, and we try to be of service to our community. It’s given to us, and we want to give back.”

Jacob added:

“Eddie and I have always been in this area, so we are very conscious of keeping people happy. Whether that’s through speed, efficiency, or pricing, we are focused on the people.”

Building Success Through Customer Engagement

Outside of building a strong online reputation, Blue Ox Tree Service has marketed and grown their company by engaging as much as possible with their customers and their community. They do some community service work, sponsor a club basketball team, and are always looking for ways to give back.

There are many businesses out there that are looking to build as impressive a reputation as Blue Ox Tree Service has managed to. We asked if Eddie and Jacob could share any expert advice with these companies. Here’s what they had to say:

“Relationships create growth. Your reputation is who you are, and your word is what you are. Successful businesses build a foundation through integrity, honesty, consistency, and hard work.”


Congratulations to Blue Ox Tree Service for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and special thanks to Eddie and Jacob for taking the time to speak with us!
