Technology for Contractors and Construction
You are not short of work. You are short of hours, and the hours are going to paperwork, chasing information, and finding out on Thursday what happened on Monday.
What usually brings people to us
The technology that tends to fix it
Not all of it, and not at once. We start with whichever one of these is costing you the most right now.
Catch every call and form
Missed-call texts, one place for every inquiry, and a reply that goes out in minutes instead of days.
Faster estimates
Templates, pricing built in, and drafting help so a quote goes out the same day.
Job tracking that the field will use
Simple enough to work on a phone with gloves on, and it feeds the office automatically.
Photos and notes filed automatically
Taken on site, tagged to the job, in the file before anybody gets back to the truck.
Change orders in writing
Requested, approved and recorded, so the argument never happens.
Job costing you can see
What each job earned, while you can still do something about it.
A renovation contractor with a lead problem that was not a lead problem
- Inquiries arrive by phone, website, email and Facebook
- Missed calls go to a voicemail box nobody clears
- Good jobs and tyre-kickers look identical in the inbox
- Follow-up depends on somebody remembering on a Friday
- Two or three big jobs a year quietly go to somebody else
Roughly one in five good leads never got a proper reply.
- Everything lands in one list, whatever channel it came from
- A missed call sends an immediate text so the customer knows you exist
- Job type, scope and urgency are pulled out automatically
- Big jobs go to the top and get a same-hour reply
- Follow-up happens on its own until somebody answers
Every inquiry answered the same day, and the owner sees only the ones worth his time.
What you should get out of it
- A same-day reply to every inquiry, without hiring anybody
- Estimates out while the customer is still interested
- The office knows what happened in the field on the same day
- You know which jobs made money before the year ends
Not sure where to start?
A $300 Technology Briefing gets you an hour together plus hours of research, and a written report inside a week. If you hire us afterwards, the $300 comes off the price.
How pricing worksCommon questions
We are three guys and a truck. Is this overkill?
No. The smaller the crew, the more expensive a dropped call is. The first fixes for a company that size are usually cheap and take days, not months.
Do we have to change the software we already use?
Usually not. Most of the time the problem is that your existing tools are not connected or not set up properly.
Other industries
Let us work out what you actually need.
Thirty minutes, free, and nobody pitches you at the end. Bring us the part of your week you hate and we will tell you honestly whether technology can fix it.
