Just launched in the App Marketplace: an AI dispatcher that books right into your Jobber schedule
We just went live in the marketplace with Gus, an AI receptionist built for independent shops. When you can't grab the phone, Gus answers, qualifies the job, and creates the client, the request, and an on-site assessment on your Jobber schedule — then texts you the lead. Rather than pitch you: I created a demo plumbing company Fresh just so people can test him. Call 567-405-1602, say your water heater's leaking, and try to stump him. Would genuinely love feedback from Jobber users. You're exactly who he was built for. Listing: https://secure.getjobber.com/marketplace/convoforms
How are you implementing Ai into your business?
Greetings everyone! I run a Tree Service in the Mid Atlantic region and we are seeing so much every week on "Ai" my question to everyone is how are you installing Ai into your business to improve your workflow and make things more efficient? Stay cool out there!AI Transcription Hack - use Plaud. Thank Me Later
I've got to share this because it's genuinely changed how I run my day, and I think a lot of you dealing with client walkthroughs, team conversations, and constant mental juggling will get a lot out of it too. It's this little device, about the size of a credit card, that sticks on the back of your phone. It records and transcribes conversations, then hands you back a summary. There are a bunch of templates built in depending on what kind of conversation you're having. I originally picked it up to help with walkthroughs. If you're like me, people talk to you about so much stuff during a single job site visit that it's impossible to keep it all straight in your head. Now I've got it recording, and afterward I get a clean summary instead of trying to remember everything or scribble notes while I'm supposed to be paying attention to the person in front of me. Here's the part that's saved me more than once: when a client says "well, I said this" or "you told me that," I can actually go back to the AI summary and say, "here's what was actually said." No more he-said-she-said. It's all sitting right there. But the thing I'm most excited about is what it's done for GSR meetings — goal setting and review meetings. There was a recent Jobber podcast episode that got into these, and I liked the idea, but I had a mental block about actually doing them. I hate the idea of filling out extra spreadsheets and handing my team more stuff to track. It just becomes one more thing nobody keeps up with. So instead, I just run the meeting, let Plaud record it, and have it spit out a summary. That summary becomes my record. No spreadsheet, no separate tracking system, no extra homework for anyone. I just keep the summaries and refer back to them next time. If you're drowning in notes, or you've been putting off something like GSR meetings because of the extra admin, this might be the nudge you need. Worth checking out.I stumbled upon this gem - Manus AI
I wanted to pass this along because I had never heard of this platform before. The problem I was trying to solve is making a usable catalog for our company SOPs. Right now they look like this. Not so bad BUT I'm onboarding a new VA and for them to know where to look for information was going to be really tough. I'm a member of Home Service Accelerator and the main guy kept talking about "putting it in manus and have it make a dashboard. I finally listened and what came out was unbelievable. An interactive website that has all the info they could ever need. Sure you have to pay for it but I how nice would that be to start a job and they have everything you could need to know be searchable?? This is a screen shot of what I came up with after working on it after 30 minutes. Definitely check it out if this is a pain point for you.Jobber API - What are you guys up too??
Hey everyone, with vibe coding now becoming so accessible to everyone.Connecting to the API of Jobber has never been easier. I would love to know what kind of systems and automations you guys have been building by vibe coding things and connecting to the Jobber API? I'll go first: https://captured-output-analyticshireoutp-d17c6a9a.base44.app Dashboard I built with realtime data I have an Base 44 agent connected to the API of jobber - currently, I have it looking for new photos in Jobber and then uploading those to my Google Drive, where I can post them to social media using Go High Level. I have vibe coded our own version of asana, and I'm going to build in a production pipeline that's directly connected to Jobber So my production coordinator knows where all our jobs are at the moment. Let's hear it. What am I missing?Missed call / Auto text back AI agent
I see a lot of people have these set up with High Level. Is this a game changer do I need this? I do have a human admin that takes all our calls during the day, but sometimes she's already on that line or she's busy, and we miss the odd call. Just thinking I should probably set this up. Looking for some feedback. Thanks a lot.How Fast Do You Pick Up a Phone Call or Call Someone Back After a Missed Call?
Curious how everyone here handles this, because a new Jobber survey of recent homebuyers turned up a stat that stuck with me: 15% had to follow up repeatedly just to get a response from a contractor 9% never heard back at all Losing potential business due to something that is not a pricing problem or a skill problem should be a wake up call. In a world where 75% of new homeowners hire a pro within their first two years of buying, being the one who calls back first might be the easiest job you win all week! So, what's your business standard? Do you answer within a certain time frame or let it go to voicemail and call back same day? Are there systems set up so nothing slips through the cracks? 👉 Recent Homebuyer Report: It's got homeowner quotes on what made them trust (or ditch) a contractor, plus a breakdown of how each generation actually finds a pro.Virtual assistant
Sorry if this is a repeat post. I did some searching on here and didn’t find what I’m asking. I keep hearing about virtual assistants used for service pros. I’m a 1 man show right now trying to delete and automate as much as possible to leave room for growth and expansion. I heard virtual assistants can help with a number of task. Does anyone have a company they refer or use? What has been the feed back?How has that helped utilizing a VA and Jobber together? Thank you !
