Auto Add Late fees/Interest
Does anyone know how to add auto interest or late fees to invoices? Considering the scope of my work this would be real handy when my average invoice payment time is around 50 days. Because of this I have to finance my own payroll and if I could recoup some of these interest charges automatically. Too many invoices to manually add fees475Views2likes6CommentsWhat's your plan for your business in 2026?
We are a residential cleaning company. I am wondering what are you tracking other than of course your revenue and net profit. Some of our KPI's include: Number of visits Number of reoccuring jobs booked Number of one time jobs booked Number of reoccuring jobs lost Employee retention Anything else you are tracking closely?judithvirag14 days agoContributor 549Views0likes3CommentsHow do you scale past $1 Million in revenue? What are some common bottle necks to avoid?
Scaling past $1 Million has been one of the biggest challenges for me as a business owner. I'm curious what steps did you take to get over that hump and what advice do you have to get there?BrandenSewell15 days agoJobber Ambassador263Views1like16Comments💡FEATURE REQUEST: Price Increases in Products & Services List
Do you increase prices for ongoing customers? Do you know how long it takes me to increase my prices for 700 ongoing clients in my cleaning business? Whether you increase your prices on an annual basis or just as needed in these unpredictable times, it would be easier to make these changes en masse in the Products and Services tab! How would it work? When editing a product or service line item in the Products & Services List, there should be an option to carry that modification over to any existing Jobs that have that line item on it. Currently, this would only update for new jobs created, but I'd love to see a little pop-up that says, "Would you like to change the price for existing Jobs with this line item? Yes/No" Use Case Example: Because I am in the cleaning industry, it will be my primary use case. Let's say you have a minimum price that every client's rate will be at or above. When you create a new job for a recurring customer, you add a line item titled "Minimum Rate + current year," like for 2020: "Minimum Rate 2020," which is $150. You also add another line item based on how your pricing model is set up - in this case, I will use a simple one: "Small House" for $10 "Medium House" for $30 "Large House" for $50 When it's time for your prices to increase, consider the following options: you could decide to raise prices only for people with large houses and keep your minimum rate the same, or you may want to increase the cost for clients who have been with you for more than 5 years. Instead of making this change one client at a time and trying to sort through who the change applies to, I could go to the Products and Services List and find the specific line item I want to modify. Then, I could edit the price in there! Ta Da! You've raised your prices! Why should Jobber care? This would be huge for any business industry that has recurring clients. ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, and other competitors already have this feature. I have found other threads that mention something like this or frustrations with how to go about raising prices. This would allow businesses that only see customers once or twice a year to set up their customers as recurring with one Job, saving them a lot of time and effort as well. You'd have at least one very loyal customer in me! I've spoken to two support agents who thought this was a simple but fantastic idea! My next price increase is in June, and I'd love you guys if you saved me weeks worth of work in a single click 🤞🙏 QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, FEEDBACK, AND MORE USE CASES WELCOME!!46Views1like3CommentsAnnual price increase reminders
Howdy! How do you guys keep track of annual price increases? It looks like we can set an invoice reminder but I worry that will get lost in a sea of daily invoice reminders. Currently we use internal notes but we continue to miss accounts. We're issuing about 30 increases every month. Would love your ideas!479Views1like4CommentsAccountant Pricing for Monthly Bookkeeping & Year-End Tax Filing

Jobber Payment Schedule.
I love that Jobber has implemented a payment schedule. I was just curious if anyone has considered using this feature to offer in house financing? Could you do batch invoicing for payments that are due? What do you think the pros and cons of that would be. Look forward to hearing some thoughts on this. Ps. We currently use Wisetack for customer financing.BrandenSewell21 days agoJobber Ambassador20Views0likes0CommentsCrypto as a form of payment?
I am not huge into crypto currency; however, I like the idea of diversifying my approach to my business and preparing myself for what could come. Are any of you accepting crypto as a form of payment? If so, then how do you go about that? Also what are your overall thoughts on it?BrandenSewell21 days agoJobber Ambassador38Views1like2CommentsWhy Every Service Contractor Needs to Understand Material Markup (Not Just Job Markup)
Some home service contractors love to mark up the entire job, and that’s fine until you realize you’re not really making money on your materials. For me, personally I love to know ow everything is divided in my margins... Because It covers all the costs that get overlooked: Warranty replacements that eat into profits Time to grab, stock, or return parts Fuel and vehicle wear from sourcing Credit card fees and supply chain risk When you don’t separate material markup, you lose visibility. If you’re inefficient in your labor or your jobs start dragging, you won’t know where the leak is. Understanding markup on material is one of the most vital fundamentals for any service provider. It’s what separates a day to day contractor from a profitable one. That’s why we built this quick resource for you: It breaks down: ✅ How to calculate markup by cost range ✅ What markup really covers (overhead, risk, and time) ✅ Why materials should always be treated as a profit center, not just a pass-through expense Download the worksheet, walk through it with your team, and start identifying where your leaks are. Let me know what you think.EnergizeUs24 days agoJobber Ambassador66Views1like2Comments
