I have been looking into getting a cover for the bed of my truck and a lot of places here in Toronto are saying their inventory is gone! And it will likely be a year before any new ones come in. Even used ones are being bought up for resale or even modified to fit the more popular trucks. Has anyone been looking for one and found the same supply issues?Do you have a Instagram Business account? How are you utilizing tools built within it?
I started my Instagram business account and finally have started posting. I set it up as a business account so I am wondering a few things from this community... Is there features in the business account that you are using that some people could miss? Something to really get your name out there? What types of posts are you creating? What do you find really makes an impact? I want to post some interesting pest related content, crazy situations, heavy infestations, tips and tricks for homeowners...but I am wondering if any has any tips for me, that have worked for them? Feel free to follow along at pestfreecanadaWhat Should Home Service Businesses Automate First to Save Time?
Small manual tasks start stacking up, catching up on follow-ups, re-adjusting scheduling, invoicing, review requests, the list goes on and on. Sound familiar? What’s one task you’re still doing manually that you know could be automated? What’s stopping you from setting it up?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. Bring your numbers.Are there any other pest control companies on here?
I would really like to connect with some other pest control companies using Jobber! If there are any out there comment here or if you are seeing this and know one, tag them for me. It would be really cool to connect and see how you are using Jobber and swap stories.
