Maximizing Your Quotes: Jobber Tips for Accurate Pricing”

Quoting jobs can be one of the trickiest parts of running a business. I’ve been using Jobber to send professional estimates with markups, optional line items, and follow-ups, which has helped streamline the process.

 

For anyone using Jobber, how do you set your pricing? Do you use markups on materials, and how do you handle follow-up quotes if a client doesn’t respond right away?”*

    I think one of the biggest things I learned, is that, not everyone wants our services. Meaning, you'll find your market no matter what, so pricing should be done without comparing to everyone else thats a competitor.

    We keep estimating very simple... We mark-up our labor 50% and materials 50%, then hit send. 
    Our labor and mark-up rates typically go up 5% each year, too. Hwbdelivery
