You can grab it here 👉 github.com/bendelaney/jobber-keyboard-shortcuts It’s open-source, lightweight, and built by someone who spends way too much time in Jobber. 🤓 Give it a whirl and tell me what shortcuts you’d love to see next! 👨💻⚙️
One thing that would really help with the schedule!
Hey Jobber! One thing I notice almost every day when looking at my schedule, is that it automatically goes to the top of the calendar. It's obviously not an issue early in the month when that is what I want to see, but when we are in the later days, I have to scroll down to find the date/week we are in. Could you make it default to center the day or week we are in? Is it that hard to scroll down a little????
Airbnb Cleaning Automated Scheduling
Hi Everyone, We own a cleaning business in Australia and use Jobber as our software. We have a lot of clients that have Airbnb properties that we clean for them. We have been researching and trying to come up with the best solution to automate the booking process, as you can imagine cleaning 100 Airbnb properties with multi bookings per week can become a admin logistical nightmare. Does anyone have any experience in this area. How have you automated the process, can you connect Airbnb with Jobber, what is the best practice of booking and scheduling these appointments?Tutorial: How to Set Up Re-Occurring Jobs in Jobber

Suggestions for Jobber
Below is some suggestions I have for Jobber to improve use. This is reviewing the two past years of my company and the complications they have using it. Anymore? Keep it going! Create a filter in clients to separate residential and commercial. Display icon in clients for residential and commercial. Prompt you if a duplicate client is being created. Identical names especially for companies shouldn't be allowed. Option to turn off archived search results when using the search bar. Create a collect payment button for invoices instead of having to click edit invoice to collect payment. Under save invoice options add selection save invoice and mark as sent. Create an edit mode for products and services and for visits. You would click the button allowing you to change the text in the columns and toggle taxable or non taxable. when edit mode is turned off it will save any changes. You can also do a select box so you can deactivate or delete multiple at a time. For visits, dates should be an option in the edit mode. Length of visits should be an option in one off or recurring. Shouldn't just default to all day. Quotes have a bulk archive, this should be added to jobs and requests and for the quotes there should be options such as bulk archive, bulk approve. When converting quotes to a job there should be selection boxes to select which line items you want to convert. And once line items are converted and someone tries to do it again maybe a popup saying this has already been converted to job #______ are you sure you want to proceed? In Manage teams, allow you to create a password for your technician. Sometimes techs are in the field having issues and don't have time to verify and change a password. Administrators should have this option.How do you use your services list to increase the value of every job?
I constantly go into my Products and Services page and update wording, add services, and just basic review. This is so important to me because the whole base of my business is to be full-service to my clients. If I see an issue while doing my inspection, I either propose to do it for them or have a small network of other service pros I can call to solve the problem. That is why my list of products and services is so important. I can pop that into a proposal and quote it in seconds, then present it to the client after the inspection and tell them everything we can do for them. It has been working out really really well and I do owe a lot of it to Jobber having this feature at my finger tips. Some calls double in value simply because I am presenting them to a client right then and there. It does take some time off the road to review and make sure everything is looking professional and accurate, but when that turns into revenue on the road I feel validated spending some time reviewing these details. Presenting them a professional and itemized proposal for everything I can do to help them is so so so handy for me. Does anyone else work like this? When add-ons can really start to add up value to a call? Did you spend time working on your lists to make them ready to go at each call?Double check you have the right city when the autofill picks an address.
I like that Jobber has the autofill feature when filling out an address for a new client. Yesterday though, I didn't double check I had the right city, and had to drive 90mins out of my way, there and back when, funny enough I was 12 mins away from one call to the next. Make sure you all have the right city when you're picking an address from the drop down!
