Finding the Right Price: How Do You Charge Fairly While Still Making a Profit? As A Small Business
One of the biggest challenges for many small business owners is knowing how to set prices. You want to be fair to your customers while also making sure your business is profitable and sustainable. How do you determine what to charge for your services? Do you base your pricing on time, materials, competition, experience, or your desired profit margin? What advice would you give to a new business owner who is trying to find the right balance between being affordable and making sure they are not undercharging themselves?5Views0likes2CommentsLooking for genuine feedback
I've been building a hiring tool for home service businesses, and I'd love some honest feedback. The idea is simple. Instead of paying job boards every time you need to hire, what if you owned your own hiring pipeline? You enter your job title, pay, schedule, location, and a few screening questions. In seconds, the software creates a branded social media hiring post with a QR code. You can share that QR code anywhere—Facebook groups, Instagram, your storefront, a vehicle magnet, posters, hiring cards, or anywhere potential employees might see it. When someone scans the QR code, they answer your custom screening questions, enter their availability, and apply directly to your job. As soon as they apply, you receive a text notification. The hiring post is completely free to create and download. You only pay if you find an applicant you actually want to contact. After that, it's $99/month to keep your hiring page active and unlock interview scheduling, digital onboarding, document collection, applicant management, employee tracking, and the ability to save great candidates for future openings instead of starting from scratch every time you're hiring. My goal is to help small businesses rely less on job boards and build a hiring system they actually own. Would you pay $99 per month if this consistently helped you find quality employees? What am I missing? I'd really appreciate honest feedback, even if you think it's a terrible idea.11Views1like2CommentsHas anyone used the online booking forms successfully with custom confirmation pages?
We’re trying to better understand how other users are handling request form confirmations. Has anyone successfully used the “custom confirmation page” option with online booking/request forms? Specifically: Are you able to redirect customers to a separate thank-you or instruction page after form submission? Does the redirect work consistently on desktop and mobile? If not, what workflow are you using instead? We’re trying to improve customer clarity after submission and would appreciate hearing how others have configured this successfully. Thanks in advance.21Views0likes1CommentQuestion About Jobber Request Form Confirmation Behavior and Mobile PDF Attachments
We’re trying to determine whether other Jobber users are experiencing similar behavior with request forms and estimate attachments. We’ve noticed that after a customer submits our request form, the page appears to load near the footer instead of clearly displaying the confirmation message near the top of the page. Over time, we’ve had multiple customers contact us asking whether their submission went through because they were unsure if the form had successfully submitted. We also noticed that the “custom confirmation page” option appears in settings, but we haven’t been able to get it functioning properly on our end. Separately, we’re experiencing an issue on iPhone and iPad where PDF attachments (specifically our Terms & Conditions PDF) fail to upload when attaching documents to estimates through the mobile app, even though this previously worked for us. Has anyone else experienced either of these behaviors or found a workaround? I’ve attached screenshots showing the post-submission page positioning issue for reference. What customers see after redirect. If they scroll up they can see the confirmation message, but they have to know to do this. Attachment screen error as displayed on all mobile devices.35Views0likes1Comment
