Customer Appreciation Dinner/Event?
Do you put on an annual customer appreciation dinner/event for your customers? Maybe a cookout, or a dinner at a nice restaurant? I am thinking of doing this to engage with clients and build even better relationships for the purpose of repeat work and referrals. If your company is doing this, or has done this please share your feedback.
Are there any car detailers on Jobber?
Hello Jobber community, I’m Zane Smith, a 21-year-old business owner based in Broward County, Florida, and co-owner of Spray Wipe Wash alongside my partner, Niwangee Nicolas (22). We run a luxury vehicle detailing company built around dealership-level standards. Over the past six years, I’ve specialized in detailing Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Lamborghini, and other high-end and exotic brands, working directly with those dealerships. That experience shaped how we operate Spray Wipe Wash today—every vehicle gets treated like it’s sitting on a showroom floor, not in a driveway. While our core focus is luxury automotive detailing, we’re actively expanding into boat, plane, and residential detailing to offer a full premium care experience for our clients’ entire portfolio of assets.We’re new to Jobber and I’ve noticed there aren’t many car detailing companies on here, so I’m excited to connect with other owners, share ideas, and grow alongside a community that takes their business as seriously as we do.What is the biggest bottleneck for you as a blue collar trade owner?
Hey what's up if we've never met, my name is Jeff aka "The 360 Electrician" or @the360electrician on all social media. I coach over 1000 electrical contracting and blue collar businesses and have been a Jobber ambassador for well over 2 years now. I run 2 electrical contracting companies for the past 20 years. I'm located in California and Montana, so you better believe I have the experience to help anyone from 0 to 360. After talking to hundreds of you in my 8 week contractor playbook course, time and time again the topic of the "unknown" comes up. Most of you want to grow your business, you are booked solid, you know there is a shortage in the trades but the unknown of being the "boss" is what holding you back. I have 3 tips that may help you with this and I hope you will reach out if you have any questions or need a more comprehensive hiring system. Hire before you need to hire - Don't wait till it's too late. If you know you need help start looking NOW! Otherwise you hire out of desperation and trust me, that's a recipe for disaster. Make sure you aren't hiring to fill a spot, but rather to buy back your time. This is based on the best seller from Dan Martell "Buy Back Your Time". When you can step away from the tools, you change the game as far as your business goes. You can hire anyone qualified to cut the grass, or install an electrical panel, you can't just hire anyone to run your business and take care of the finances taxes etc. Freeing up your time is PRIORITY 1 so you can grow. Own the trains don't run the trains. Hire 24/7 always hire better, more qualified employees. Make sure you have a Win-Win / profit sharing system in place and you will keep employees longer and happier. Constantly losing good employees takes time to retrain and trust so don't lose good people, reward them to stay.

Keep it flowin' - Sales Pipeline
Every dedicated small business owner understands the crucial role of continually introducing new prospects into their sales pipeline. Without a steady influx of potential customers, achieving long-term growth and success becomes quite a challenge. The good news? There’s a myriad of tactics to keep that sales pipeline overflowing. The not-so-great news is that many entrepreneurs fall into the trap of seeking that elusive, magic solution that’ll fill their pipeline effortlessly. The reality is that those on the hunt for a 'magic bullet' will soon discover that it simply doesn’t exist. While various marketing strategies can undoubtedly attract large volumes of new leads, depending on just one method is a gamble you can't afford to take. “I need 20 new customers. What should I do?” The mindset you should adopt for your marketing approach is to avoid relying on a single thing. Relying on a single method to unleash a torrent of new business is unrealistic. To drive significant growth, it’s essential to implement a range of marketing strategies simultaneously. Consider these various tactics that you can deploy simultaneously: Sending out direct mail sales letters or postcards Posting on Social Feeds like Facebook, Instagram, etc. Get reviews on Google and respond to them Placing ads in local online directories Utilizing an online phone directory listing Displaying signs/billboards in strategic locations Encouraging existing customers to refer friends Networking at local events or within relevant associations Establishing joint venture partnerships with similar, non-competing businesses Driving website traffic through SEO, PPC, and article submissions Crafting and distributing press releases to pertinent news outlets (this method still works well for SEO) ...and of course, using Jobber Campaigns! As you can see, each of these strategies can work alongside one another. Implementing one won’t diminish the impact of another; in fact, using multiple methods can enhance their effectiveness. It takes 7 exposures to a marketing message before a potential customer makes a purchase By employing as many of these methods as you can, you’ll increase the number of exposures, thereby speeding up the buying cycle. So, as you strive to elevate your business, reflect on the variety of marketing methods you’re utilizing. How do you market your company? What has worked for you and what hasn't?Understand your customer’s pain = win more deals

Do Electrical Contractors own a business or job?
A lot of guys say they “work for themselves.” But when I ask who controls their schedule — it’s the customer. When I ask what happens if they take a day off — the work stops. And if they stop answering the phone — the leads disappear. That’s not a business. That’s a job with more pressure. I built this visual because I lived it. The truth is: most contractors don’t own their time, they just own the stress. So I came to the conclusion: If you stop working and your income stops too… You don’t own a business ... you just own your own job. How do you guys feel about that ?1,000+ Google reviews in a year?
