We're thinking through what an in-person Jobber event could look like, and we’re curious about your input!
What would actually make it worth taking time away from your business?
Networking with other pros?
Hands-on product training?
Hearing directly from the Jobber team about what's coming?
More people would likely attend if Jobber partnered with a major trade event. One trip, multiple learning opportunities. Attendees could learn the software and hear about upcoming features. This can help bring the Jobber community closer. And also build relationships with vendors and contractors.
OOo, interesting. Good to know! We've got quite a few lined up for 2026 👀
Western Roofing Conference, NECA, Equip Expo, NALP Elevate, and RoofCon!
I agree, I would love the chance to attend one of these and sit down at a computer and get hands on experience with Jobber and see how it would or wouldn't work for me. So much learning, so little time.
Some of the specific topics I would be interested in:
I love these events!!!!
Good evening,
What would actually make it worth taking time from starting my business is all three…networking with other pros, hands-on product training, and hearing directly from the Jobber team about what’s coming. It would definitely bring true meaning and understanding on starting my new business.
That's great to know, thanks for sharing! Our Jobber Events team is always looking to improve experiences and ensure events are value-packed. I'll be sharing your feedback with them 🙌
I’m particularly interested in hands-on training that will help me expand the range of services I can offer. Skills like door and window repair/replacement, general carpentry, deck repair, and fence repair would allow me to help more customers — especially homeowners who struggle to find reliable help for these jobs. I would also like to network with both new and experienced handymen to learn best practices, share knowledge, and build relationships within the local trades community. There is just to many things you cant learn in a book. If the training provides skills that will genuinely increase my capabilities and allow me to serve more people, I would be fully committed to taking the time off work. I believe the investment will pay for itself many times over through the additional jobs I’ll be able to complete.
So happy you mentioned hands-on training because it is just ONE of the offerings provided at Jobber first in-person event, Jobber Now 👀
Wow, if these are just some of the events, I could see myself getting a lot out of the Jobber in-person event!
Sounds like a great idea!
Whoo Hoo! Lets Go!
All three of those would get me there, but a couple things would make it a no-brainer:
Mini business segments. Real content for businesses at every stage, including the one everyone's circling but few are handling well: how service-based businesses sustain with and despite AI. That session alone is worth the trip.
A "bring your team" track. Most events are built for the owner. Give crews and key people something too, and suddenly the trip is team development I can justify, not just time away.
Networking and training fill the day. Content and structure like this are what make people book the trip and bring others next year.
