How a Fencing Business Documented a Bilingual Field Team and Built a System Ready to Grow

The Introduction orients every team member to the manual's purpose, key features, and confidentiality expectations, along with guidance on how to use it day-to-day.

The Business Overview covers who Landworks Fence is: the founder's story, when and why the business was started, its mission and vision, the services it offers — residential fencing, commercial fencing, fence repair, and arbors — and its full tech stack. Alongside it, the Culture and Values section walks the team through the principles that guide the business, like innovation, continuous growth, and "wow service." Both sections are built to get new and existing team members to relate to the business and integrate the culture faster, so they can make decisions that reflect what matters most to Lucas and the company.

The Org Chart and Job Descriptions section documents every team member's name, position, team, and reporting line, along with their full job description — each one built as its own tile that can be copy-pasted directly into job board postings when Landworks Fence is ready to hire.

From there, five dedicated SOPs hubs give each team its own home. The All-Staff Hub covers the full customer journey — from lead management through post-production — along with customer relations guidelines, customer communication and billing processes, and internal admin essentials like the employee handbook, internal communication guidelines, and daily all-hands structure.

The Management Team Hub, accessible only to leadership, covers the general manager's role overview, a master checklist, accountability charts, and meeting agendas for the management team, along with management-specific document templates and forms.

The Accounting Hub documents the accounting systems and processes the business runs on, alongside HR SOPs and role-specific new hire training roadmaps — including dedicated roadmaps for a new customer service representative, a new in-house scheduler, and a new installer — plus HR and accounting checklists and training materials and videos.

The Office Team Hub covers what the office team owns day to day: follow-up guidelines, crew scheduling, and material ordering and reception workflows. Since the sales team sits within the office team, this hub also houses their SOPs, templates, and scripts — welcome emails, cold email templates, customer conversation scripts, an in-house scheduling checklist, a sales representative master checklist, and a day-to-day customer feedback call sheet.

The Field Team Hub documents the responsibilities of every field role — production manager, installers, foreman, and service crew — including general field checklists like the installer master checklist, job start and job closing checklists, and installer quality control checklist. Given that much of the crew is Spanish-speaking, this hub's SOPs and guidelines were translated into Spanish as well, so every field team member has full access to the standards they're expected to follow.

The Tutorials & Training section includes the tools the team uses daily — including Jobber and CompanyCam — a Glossary of trade-specific terminology so new hires can follow along quickly, a full Company Directory, a Wall of Love showcasing customer feedback, and new hire onboarding quizzes covering every section of the manual, so new team members can confirm their understanding before moving into hands-on work.
