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!

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.How Much Should You Really Be Charging?
The number one question I receive is tied directly to the fact, most contractors are still guessing when it comes to pricing. Overhead. Profit. Labor rate. Trip fees. They think just because they throw a number they hear their competitors use, thats all that they need. It may work, but how and what do you divide these funds is just as important for your business health. If you don’t know how to do the math, you’re not building a business. You’re surviving check to check and think you need more work, when you do not. So here’s the plan: This Tuesday & Thursday on IG, I’m walking you through our Contractor Price Builder Worksheet FREE on instagram live. We will cover: - How to calculate your real hourly rate - The difference between markup and margin - Why profit is a non-negotiable - And how to price with confidence Join the session.

Hi everyone, I’ve got a landscaping job coming up and I’m looking for some advice on pricing it fairly. The job includes: Clearing out the backyard and the side of the house (removing overgrowth, debris, smaller trees, etc.) Hauling away all the waste and debris Cleaning out the gutters I already have images and a short video of the areas ready to share for context. Link: https://imgur.com/a/OJTrye7 I’m in the Lima, Ohio area and trying to figure out a fair total charge for this job. Based on the scope, how would you suggest I price it?

Would love to hear your feedback and suggestions and love to work with you as well, if we could benefit from partnership.

Time Clock / Employee Time Tracking
Hey all! We have approximately 20-25 W2 employees who clock in and out using the ADP app. Processing payroll has recently been a hassle due to time discrepancies. Adjusting time cards for each employee is not only time-consuming but can be very costly if things are missed over time. What have you found to help with maintaining accurate time cards for employees? Please paste the link to any hardware you use. I'd love to see what systems you all use for employees to clock in physically instead of over the cell phone.
