Electrical flat rate VS assemblies VS t&m
I’ve been using AccuPrice Lists for my material pricing since it syncs right into Jobber and saves me from having to constantly update material prices manually. I saw they’re adding flat-rate pricing and assemblies, and I’m curious which direction you guys have found works best for electrical service work. Do you prefer a true flat-rate price book, assemblies that build out the labor and materials, or some combination of both? For those of you already pricing this way, what’s been the easiest for your guys to use in the field and the most profitable? Trying to figure out which direction makes the most sense before I change up my current setup64Views1like4CommentsWhat are Your Best Tool Experience?

So i had a brake and was watching reels and saw that Jobber offers a dedicated business phone number that lets customers text and call while keeping everything tied to your business. That's definitely A game changer 💪... For those of you using it: • Has it helped you win more customers? • Do clients respond more when they recognize your business number? • Is it better than using your personal cell phone or services like Google Voice? • Would you pay extra for this feature, or is it something every CRM should include?59Views1like0CommentsWhat's one Jobber feature you wish you had started using sooner?
I've been exploring how different home service businesses use Jobber, and it's interesting that two companies can use the same software in completely different ways. What's one feature, workflow, or habit that made you think: "I wish I'd known about this six months ago." Whether it's scheduling, quoting, invoicing, client communication, reminders, or something else, I'd love to hear what's made the biggest difference for your business. Hopefully this thread helps newer members discover some hidden gems too.148Views0likes6CommentsDoes anyone have input on how to leverage business certifications for profit?
I know certifications can open doors, but I’d love to hear how people are actually turning them into revenue, stronger partnerships, or new opportunities. What’s worked best for you in scaling with certifications like WOSB, SDVOSB, 8(a), or others?50Views1like2CommentsWhat Is the Best Business Insurance for Small Companies with a Few Employees?
We’re currently insured through Simply Business for our landscaping and property maintenance company, and I wanted to open up a discussion with other contractors here. I’m curious how others are structuring their coverage and what the current market looks like for small crews. For those in landscaping, lawn care, pressure washing, or similar service industries: Who are you insured with (Simply Business, NEXT, Hiscox, State Farm, local agents, etc.) What coverage do you carry (General Liability, Commercial Auto, Workers’ Comp, Tools & Equipment, Umbrella, etc.)? What are you roughly paying monthly or annually? How has your experience been with claims, renewals, or customer service? Any providers you’ve found especially good or worth avoiding? Just trying to benchmark where we’re at and see how other small crews (1–5 employees) are handling insurance as they grow. Appreciate any insight—this kind of real-world info is incredibly helpful for newer companies like ours. Sassenach Landscape & Maintenance LLCSolved128Views4likes5Comments
