Jobber Payments, Two Way Text / Text Message Invoice (Australia)
Hi Jobber, I just want to say that Jobber is a great program and I'm very happy with all the features currently offered to Australian users! It's certainly the best program I've used so far and will happily recommend it to industry professionals. There's a couple of things that we're missing here in Australia that are critical for running a service based business that are standard for most CRM offerings. I've listed them below; Two Way text messaging / invoicing Jobber Payments (Trying to integrate Zapier to do these things is quite difficult and time consuming and doesn't always work. There's a huge market of tradies / business owners who I know would transition from their current platforms to Jobber Australia if these things were added). I certainly don't want to stop using Jobber but I really don't have any other options at this point unless these features are added so that we can streamline invoicing, secure payment methods / bill post job completion, along with in house text messaging. Australia is a big market for trade professionals and there's currently platforms life ServiceM8 and Tradify that offer these services but their interface is old and clunky. Can you provide a date as to when Jobber will be adding these services (Two Way Text Messaging, Text Message Invoices & Jobber Payments etc.) in Australia? Thankyou, Kristian (MowLocal)
Marketplace Integration
Hi I'm Tom, I'm new here and am having difficulties with Facebook Market Place. I don't have an advertising budget yet. I'm too small and sales are not consistent or regular enough. My clients rave about products, build, quality and price. I've been posting and relying on word of mouth for sales. I can't figure out how to promote my products or make a business page. Am I barking up the wrong tree. I'm local in the East Valley. Should I be starting in a different direction?Did you use Jobber to create your website?
First off, I cant believe that you can make such an impressive and professional looking website with Jobber, and also cant believe that its completely free with your subscription! I get comments on it all the time that it is clean, professional and useful. I did put a lot of work into it to make it that way, but Jobber made it so easy. I have said it before, but I am a caveman when it comes to technology. If I can figure this website design out, anyone with fingers and a pulse can figure it out! Are you using the Jobber website builder? Did you find any tricks or tips you can pass along to help others add something special to their site?
How can Jobber help me grow my business?
I am a fairly new business and I am still finishing the detail of my operations. I have been using the basic plan from Jobber for my bookings but I did not find myself using the Marketing suite very much when I first purchased a plan. I believe it is because I was still figuring out how to run my business operations. My question is, what is the best marketing move for me to do as a relatively new business owner using Jobber with limited resources like funds and a small client base.Does Jobber Marketing Suite Generate Leads for Your Business?
We just started our property services business in May. We have been doing really well with referrals so far but I know that doesn't last forever. I have met with a few Instagram marketing companies here in Austin and we've been quote $12K - that's not a realistic number for a business in it's first year. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the Jobber marketing suite and if so, were you able to generate leads? How did it help you generate leads? What other benefits did you see from having it? Thank you!What marketing tool has given you the best return on investment?
Hi everyone! 👋 As a newer business owner, I'm trying to be intentional about where I invest my time and money. There are so many marketing tools available—from social media and Google Business Profile to vehicle wraps, yard signs, email marketing, referrals, and automation—that it can be hard to know what really works. If you could recommend just one marketing tool or strategy that has brought in the most customers for your business, what would it be and why? I'd love to hear what has worked for you and what you would recommend to someone just getting started. Thanks in advance for sharing your experience!Is it possible to change meta descriptions on Jobber hosted website?
I have my website hosted on Jobber, which for the most part is great. I've recently discovered that some of the meta descriptions for my service pages are completely wrong (wrong location, wrong service, etc.) which is really messing up my SEO and GBP rankings. Is there any way for the user to update these, or is it possible by contacting support?
$20k in First Month – How to Push Margins from 20% to 30%?
Hey everyone, I’m just about a month into running my home service business and wanted to share where I’m at + get some advice. We’re on track to finish around ~$20k in revenue in the first month. Current breakdown: Contractors: 62% Expenses (VA, tools, etc.): 18% Net profit: ~20% Overall, I’m happy with the start, but I know there’s room to improve margins. For those more experienced: Would you focus first on raising prices or reducing contractor costs? What contractor % do you aim for at scale? Any early changes that helped you break into the 25–30% range? Appreciate any insight—working on tightening systems and scaling the right way.
