Anyone have a tried and true way to get work people around Lake Martin to return your call?
I have extensive landscaping work to be done -- including a water feature and a fireplace -- and I know who I would like to hire to do it -- but I can't get them to call me back. I call, explain what I'm seeking, and leave my various numbers, but get no call backs. I know it's a busy time of year for landscapers, but even if they called back to say they're not interested, or couldn't get to me until July, that would be okay. I'd just like to get in the queue.

We went through the same kind of thing when we had the basic landscape put in and ended up hiring the only one (out of 4 we contacted) to respond. I don't live in one of the "premiere" communities, but I do have money to spend.

Anyone have any suggestions?
