What kind of Notifications you setup
I want to start the discussion on what notifications you setup in Jobber? What notifications you would like to have in Jobber when compared with other CRMs' ? Would you like to setup notifications based on fields in the Job, Client etc example: - When a visit is completed and the job value is > x, then email the owner and the manager. - When a payment is created and amount > x, then email the accounts receivable and owner. - When a 'Request' is created with emergency keywords like urgent, 'no heat', flooding, then email to manager, dispatcher. - When a high value job is deleted, notify the owner. DM me if you are looking for some such notifications that can ease you daily and repetitive routines Aswath aswath.satrasala@gmail.com8Views1like0CommentsGetJobber in Gmail
Getjobber currently does not have native Gmail integration. CRMs like HubSpot, Salesforce, and Zoho have proven the value of native Gmail integration My company is going forward and filling this gap for GetJobber. Customer Context Panel: Automatically pull the relevant info from the email and display new client form in the Gmail sidebar when viewing emails from new clients Customer Context Panel: Display GetJobber customer info in the Gmail sidebar when viewing client emails Job Creation: Create jobs directly from client emails with one click Email-to-Job Logging: Automatically record important emails to job history Scheduling: Add appointments to the Getjobber calendar from email conversations Please don't hesitate to contact me if you are interested in such a Gmail productivity tool Aswath aswath.satrasala@gmail.com144Views2likes5CommentsPopular communication tools
Hi - Is Slack popular among the field service users? I noticed few discussions where slack was mentioned. Other research showed me that Connecteam, Blink, Beekeeper are most popular in the field service industry. What does your team use other than email for notifications?43Views1like3CommentsBest Jobber Automations
I just wanted to get a post going for these. They can be super powerful in your business and I feel like they don't get talked about enough sometimes. What are your best Jobber automations you have set up?? I really enjoy dashboards myself that give more custom information about my business. I like to use Airtable / Asana / Zapier.

We’re putting together an “About Us” package and presentation to send to municipalities and districts — covering mooring solutions, swim lines, buoy systems, etc. I already use ChatGPT and Canva (and love them!), but I’m looking for something even more intuitive to help build out a polished presentation or proposal — something I can easily tweak without spending hours on setup or design. Has anyone used AI tools that made this process easier? Would love to hear what’s worked for you! Thanks in advance 🙏12Views0likes1CommentHas Anyone Here Built Their Own GPT Yet? Or Just Using ChatGPT Like Google?
Hey everyone just curious where the community stands with AI right now. I’ve seen a lot of folks using ChatGPT to look stuff up (like Google 2.0), but I’m wondering if anyone here has gone deeper? Has anyone tried to build or train their own GPT yet? Or customized prompts/workflows to actually support your day-to-day? We’ve been working on building a custom GPT model trained on contractor logic — estimating, soft skills, job-site communication, pricing, SOPs, etc. For our company now, instead of broad knowledge. I see huge value in contractors having their own smart assistant, not just a chatbot. Something that speaks the language of our company. Is that something you’d use or find helpful? Curious to hear what direction you guys are taking.64Views0likes6Comments🚨FEATURE REQUEST: Tiered Pricing on Products & Services 🚨
Hey Jobber Team and Fellow Pros, Let’s talk about a feature that could seriously boost close rates and make Jobber even more competitive for all of us who quote services, manage inventory, and work in price-sensitive markets. What we need: Tiered Pricing on Products and Services — customizable pricing where the unit cost automatically adjusts based on quantity ordered. Why this matters: We already price materials like mulch, sod, and stone this way in real life. It would speed up quoting, improve estimate accuracy, and help us win more jobs. It mirrors how customers expect to see pricing — more they buy, less they pay per unit. How it would work: Let users define pricing tiers for any product/service: 1–10 units = $10/unit 11–50 units = $8/unit 51+ units = $6/unit These price breaks should auto-calculate during estimate creation and carry through to invoicing. Why Jobber Should Care: Makes Jobber more competitive vs. other platforms offering advanced pricing features. Helps your users convert more jobs = more usage and more loyalty to Jobber. Reflects real-world pricing logic we already use outside the app. If you'd use this — drop a comment or like to help get this in front of Jobber’s dev team. Let’s get this done together!101Views5likes7CommentsI don’t really share this much —
I just passed the 100 contractors mark that I’ve been able to help through @buildnational. Now, a few of you have seen how I built a $1 million revenue electrical business in my first 4 years. And it had nothing to do with working harder. It’s actually the opposite. It came from securing long-term relationships/contracts, repeat/bulk work with service agreements attached. And the key to it all was understanding MY NUMBERS so I could stay competitive and still close the year at 42% NET profit. We’ve been featured in Forbes and, together, broken down stigmas around construction that keep contractors stuck. All of this—while traveling the U.S. sharing our story. At the end of the day, I just want to make sure you have everything you need to take full advantage of contracting. If you want to have a conversation or just connect, I’m here to serve.10Views0likes0CommentsMost of Your Problems Are Communication Problems
I learned this the hard way - I always assumed people knew or understood what I needed, instead of communicating because I did not want to have the hard conversation. I wanted to be liked more than understood. But here’s what I’ve learned the hard way: Most mistakes, delays, and drama on a jobsite don’t come from bad workers — they come from unclear instructions. It’s not that people don’t want to do good work. It’s that we assume they understood what we meant. And when assumptions lead the conversation, everything breaks down. So I built this visual to help myself, my team, and now other contractors get clear. What’s one breakdown you’ve had that could’ve been solved with clearer communication?7Views0likes0CommentsWhat is your favorite time-saving app?
Hands down, my favorite productivity tool for Windows is Beeftext (sorry, Mac users!). As an executive administrative assistant and customer service representative, this app saves me countless hours of typing every week. What is Beeftext? Beeftext is a free, open-source text substitution tool for Windows that transforms short keywords into longer text snippets. Whether you’re tired of retyping email signatures, markdown templates, or your favorite kaomojis, Beeftext lets you create “combos” that automatically expand your shortcuts in any app that supports copy and paste. It’s lightweight, respects your privacy, and is completely ad-free—ideal for anyone who types a lot and wants to work smarter, not harder. You can learn more and download it here: https://beeftext.org/ The developer confirms it’s 100% safe and clean: https://github.com/xmichelo/Beeftext/wiki/Beeftext-is-safe Getting started is simple: https://github.com/xmichelo/Beeftext/wiki/Getting-started Pro tip: I use the equals sign (=) as my trigger key since I rarely need it otherwise. For example, typing =hi automatically expands to: Hi, it’s Rob from Wright Restorations Canada. Thank you for reaching out. How can I assist you today? Beeftext is very user-friendly, works in most apps and only takes a few minutes to master. Highly recommended for anyone looking to save time and reduce repetitive typing!70Views0likes1Comment
