Handheld battery-powered tools have come a long way from their first iterations, especially over the past few years. I've started making the switch away from gas-powered equipment throughout the last few seasons for my business and have found the switch to be positive for my workflow and bottom line. This is a trend I believe will continue as batteries become more powerful and long-lasting. Are you utilizing any battery-powered equipment and, if so, do you have any favorites you'd like to share??Best 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. Cheers !
Line item categories?
I was wondering if anyone is running a multi-department business under one Jobber account and what you do to keep the line items from becoming a huge mess. I own a plumbing business and I want to expand into HVAC and electric, but I'm wondering how that would be possible with one massive list of line items. Thanks!Sticker SHOCK! 😲
I have been doing my office's annual purge and came across some old invoices from the earliest power equipment my business purchased. Believe it or not, some of the equipment I use has doubled in price for the replacement model at today's cost. Since it is our responsibility as owners to be profitable enough to replace/repair equipment as needed, I find myself adjusting my equipment cost recovery number upward almost monthly in my budget. How often are you adjusting your cost recovery upward to adjust for the ongoing inflation?Curious ... do most teams back up job files from Jobber?
Hey all, just wondering if this is something others have run into. A few of our clients have been talking about how they handle long-term storage of job photos and documents, especially when staff leave, or when they want to organize files outside of Jobber. Some mentioned wanting to move things to Google Drive or DropBox automatically, but I’m not sure how common that need really is. Just curious, have you or your team thought about this? Is keeping a backup of Jobber media files part of your process, or not really a concern? Appreciate any thoughts! JoshReoccurring Electrical Service Plan
Hey guys, I've been thinking of offering something along the lines of this to my clients. Has anyone done this successfully and are there any tips that you would recommend when offering this type of thing? One thing that's been holding me back is that sometimes I just don't think electrical really needs much maintenance but there has been a few things that I've seen recently that made me think differently. I saw companies were cleaning people's bathroom fans, they were changing smoke detector batteries. This is the kind of thing that's probably needed. Below is just me chatting with chat gpt to flush out the idea. "The Electrical Club" is a fantastic concept!
