6 Ways Job Management Software

Make more money on jobs

Manual systems like pen and paper or a spreadsheet can seem like the best solution to your admin woes but often will result in disorganisation. Missed jobs, unchased invoices, and inaccurate quotes can leave money on the table. Drop a few fittings or a couple of hours off an invoice, and your profit margin might disappear entirely.

Even with good records — if you’re saving all your invoicing for the end of the month, it might not be obvious which jobs certain records relate to. Without the ability to tick off admin on the fly, things fall through the cracks. This can mean you might not have a clear picture of which jobs are making (or losing!) you money, or if you’re even quoting jobs at the right rate.

Keep track

Job management software lets you keep track of costs and prices with easy price lists and timesheets, helping you to record time and materials against a job immediately for faster, more accurate quotes.

Eddy Kendall of Kendall Electrical knew he was probably losing money on jobs:

“I wouldn’t have a number on how much profit I was making. I’d go out to these little jobs without writing them down. I could have lost money from not including stock on invoices.”

“As soon as I got Tradify I was like, ‘Woah! I’m not going back.’”

Win more work

With the right system to stay organised, you’ll create happier customers. Professionalism gets noticed, and a good reputation spreads like wildfire. Make more money, and get some free time back again!

• Quote & invoice immediately: Fill out all your job details onsite and have the quote ready by the time you leave. You can also send invoices right from the mobile app as soon as the job’s done.
• Let Tradify chase clients for payment: Sending invoices through Tradify means you can see if clients have opened them or not. Better yet, you’ll be able to schedule automated payment reminder emails or texts to chase customers who haven’t paid their invoices.

More benefits

• Offer customers an online payment option: Going digital means you can provide customers with the freedom to pay with a credit card. Just submit the invoice and watch the system work to get you paid.
• Lift your bottom line: When your team can do their timesheets and job notes on the go, it means more time on the tools and more money in your pocket.
• Grow your team without growing your workload: With a proper system, you’ll be set up to scale your team without being chained to a desk. Make admin easy – that’s the shortcut to a happy team of tradies.

“With Tradify, it’s so easy to quote, so within 10 minutes of the customer ringing you, boom – the quote’s done. Emailing it straight back to them – that will win business." It shows you’re quick and efficient. If it takes you a week to get back to the customer, they’ve gone elsewhere.”

Manage jobs with ease

Between playing phone tag with customers and organising your team, managing individual jobs can seem like a full-time job. It doesn’t have to be this way though! Keeping everything organised has never been easier thanks to job management software. With up-to-date schedules, accurate timesheets, and job notes, you’ll have everything you need when it comes time to invoice.

Tradify gives you the power to:

• Get more organised so you can focus on growth and productivity within your team.
• Increase efficiency, stop chasing timesheets, and spend less time on the phone with staff and customers.
• Schedule and plan your work so your employees know exactly what to do, and where and when to do it. You can even make updates to schedules and tasks in real time on the app and send a notification.
• View job progress using real-time GPS location tracking and job updates made by your team.

Testimonial

“The biggest drawcard with Tradify is when I need to think about work, I open it up and everything’s there. On my days off, I can switch it off and not think about it anymore because I know everything’s taken care of and I haven’t missed anything.”
