Outside workers, what are you doing to stay busy in the winter months?
I wonder what other service providers are doing in the winter months? Are you taking the time for your team and you to relax and recuperate? Holding training sessions? Are you offering other services to stay productive? We have relationships with homeowners and business owners and can offer other services for them, wondering of there are are crazy shifts in services out there? For example, the lawn guy at my parents house puts up their Christmas lights and decorations. Would love to hear other stories like that!
đź’ˇFEATURE REQUEST: Price Increases in Products & Services List
Do you increase prices for ongoing customers? Do you know how long it takes me to increase my prices for 700 ongoing clients in my cleaning business? Whether you increase your prices on an annual basis or just as needed in these unpredictable times, it would be easier to make these changes en masse in the Products and Services tab! How would it work? When editing a product or service line item in the Products & Services List, there should be an option to carry that modification over to any existing Jobs that have that line item on it. Currently, this would only update for new jobs created, but I'd love to see a little pop-up that says, "Would you like to change the price for existing Jobs with this line item? Yes/No" Use Case Example: Because I am in the cleaning industry, it will be my primary use case. Let's say you have a minimum price that every client's rate will be at or above. When you create a new job for a recurring customer, you add a line item titled "Minimum Rate + current year," like for 2020: "Minimum Rate 2020," which is $150. You also add another line item based on how your pricing model is set up - in this case, I will use a simple one: "Small House" for $10 "Medium House" for $30 "Large House" for $50 When it's time for your prices to increase, consider the following options: you could decide to raise prices only for people with large houses and keep your minimum rate the same, or you may want to increase the cost for clients who have been with you for more than 5 years. Instead of making this change one client at a time and trying to sort through who the change applies to, I could go to the Products and Services List and find the specific line item I want to modify. Then, I could edit the price in there! Ta Da! You've raised your prices! Why should Jobber care? This would be huge for any business industry that has recurring clients. ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, and other competitors already have this feature. I have found other threads that mention something like this or frustrations with how to go about raising prices. This would allow businesses that only see customers once or twice a year to set up their customers as recurring with one Job, saving them a lot of time and effort as well. You'd have at least one very loyal customer in me! I've spoken to two support agents who thought this was a simple but fantastic idea! My next price increase is in June, and I'd love you guys if you saved me weeks worth of work in a single click 🤞🙏 QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, FEEDBACK, AND MORE USE CASES WELCOME!!
🚨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!
Looking to collaborate with Junk removal, landscape or cleaning companies.
Hello Jobber world, I am a small Canadian owned and operated pest control company operating in Toronto, Ontario. I am putting this message out to try to get in touch with a small commercial cleaning, landscape and junk removal company to share some work. Also open to creative ideas also, pressure washing comapnies, HVAC, construction, lawn care...anything we can do as small business owners to share the work. My business model is a full service pest control company, and all three of these services are going to be offered to my customers due to the importance of each. I plan to do most of it myself at the beginning, but would like to have some other local Canadian owned small business owners to share work leads. I do not want to work with a large operation to outsource work because I am a huge believer in owner/operated businesses, hence why I (and likely yourself) started my own business I would love to hear from anyone reading this and you can email me anytime at pestfreecanada@gmail.comIs everyone calculating commission in a spreadsheet?
I have a landscaping business. I have a pay for performance model, pay out for google reviews, and am thinking about providing sales people with a commission for specific types of jobs. Right now, I use a whiteboard to show the crew and calculate in Excel. Is there a better way to do this? I feel like paying a flat rate (percentage of invoice or flat rate per sale) is simple. But when it comes to tracking hours, or paying based on margins, upsells etc. It can get pretty complicated tracking everything in Excel.Commission Tracking for Jobber
Hi Everyone, I run a lawncare/landscaping business and more recently started Crew Insight (A Jobber marketplace App). Right now, the app is focused on KPI's and metrics but many of our users have asked about commission tracking. We've built out a small MVP and a waitlist to see how we can prioritize features and the roll out. I'd love to hear what types of commission plans people have right now, and how they're tracking it. We want to make it simple to build out your commission plan, track the calculations, and give your employees a real time view into their performance. If anyone's interested in chatting or signing up for the beta, you can do so here: https://crew-insight.com/waitlistWhy Mulch Installation Services in Cypress Texas Are Worth It

Feature Request: Hourly Line Items That Auto-Track Labor Time
Hey Jobber Team and fellow users, I’d love to see a feature added that allows us to mark a Job or Line Item as “Hourly,” where Jobber automatically tracks labor time during a visit. (yes, labor time is already tracked, but it does not populate invoices automatically with the labor time total) Here’s the idea: When a team member clocks in and out for a visit, Jobber would log the total man hours and automatically populate that into the invoice line item when it’s generated. Example: If a visit takes 3.5 total man hours across the crew, and the rate is $60/hr, the invoice line would automatically show: Labor (Hourly) — 3.5 hrs @ $60/hr = $210 This would be a huge time-saver and ensure invoices accurately reflect labor hours without needing to manually edit or calculate them later. Why it matters: Eliminates human error in time-based billing Speeds up invoicing for hourly work Keeps job costing more consistent and transparent **Would also love to see labor time displayed in decimal!** Would love to hear if others are interested in this too — and if Jobber could consider adding it as a future update!Looking to Partner with Local Businesses for Mutual Growth!
