The questions, the scheduling, the paperwork — and your whole week printed before it starts.
All you need is an email account and a printer.
Call, text or email — whatever's easiest. We book around your hours, early or late.
One page per job — this lands on your dash
Most contractor websites end at a contact form. It collects a name and a blank box — which means you still have to make every single call you were going to make anyway.
Everything he typed lands on the page — none of it retyped by you. The rest we worked out or remembered, including that the last job at this address ran seventy-five minutes over.
It's that the call lands while you're under a sink or up a ladder. Then it's a voicemail, a callback you miss, let me check with my wife, and another callback. Count the back-and-forth on the last job you booked.
Same job. Same customer. You never picked up the phone.
We won't quote you a number we made up. At the walkthrough we time your actual intake calls and count the touches it takes you to book one job — so you'll know what your shop really spends, not what a website claims.
Not an app, not a login — the top sheet of what lands in your inbox. Every job, in order, with the page number of its detail sheet. Stick it on the wall and the rest goes on the dash.
Page one — then one page per job behind it
Printed before your week starts — on the dash when it does
Two maples, storm damage, shed underneath, haul the debris. You know what to put on the truck before you turn the key.
Storm damage and haul-away added time automatically, so it was quoted at four hours and the customer only ever saw four-hour openings. That's why the schedule holds.
No driveway, street sweeping Tuesday mornings, side gate is four feet. That's a ticket you don't get and a gate your machine fits through.
Jobs are sequenced, not just listed. You see the day as a route.
Closest counter to this address, open until four. Every trade loses an hour a week driving back for one part.
Matters more some weeks than others. You'll know which.
Time on, time off, parts, notes. You already scribble this on something. Write it here and hand us the stack on Friday.
Not the work — you've got that. The hundred small things around it that you solve on the fly, every day, one at a time. The board solves them on Sunday instead, so you never spend a Tuesday on them.
Third visit to this house. Gate code 4417, shutoff is behind the water heater, the dog barks but he's fine. Last job here ran seventy-five minutes over — so this one gets quoted honestly.
You said you'd haul it. The transfer station shuts at three, so the board tells you to dump before the last stop instead of after it.
A crew can start at seven in Glen Ridge; a homeowner with the same machine waits till eight. Montclair banned gas blowers outright. Bloomfield won't let a commercial vehicle sit on the street overnight.
Sunset at 6:42. Rain Thursday, so the pour moves to Friday and the board already says so. Too cold to set by Tuesday — worth knowing Sunday, not Tuesday.
Vinny's Deli, four tenths of a mile, cash only. Small thing. But it's the thing you're solving at eleven o'clock with dirty hands, every single day.
What every job that day calls for, in one list, with the counter closest to the route and what time it closes. Stop once instead of three times.
What you quoted, what's still unpaid from last time, and who's been slow before. On the sheet, so it's in your head when you're standing in their driveway.
First-time customer, no history. Nobody answered the access question. This one's running longer than your average for the job type. Quiet warnings, before you've loaded the truck.
Who's a property manager, which customer cancelled last time, where you actually like to park. If it changes how you'd run the day, it belongs on the page.
You tell us what's useful and what's noise. If something on the sheet isn't earning its space, say so on the next visit and it's gone the following week.
Those four lines at the bottom come back every Friday. Once a few months of them stack up, we can put a number on something every shop in America runs on gut feel.
| Job type | You quote | It actually takes | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Storm cleanup | 3h 00m | 4h 10m | +1h 10m |
| Patio demo & rebuild | 2 days | 2.5 days | +half a day |
| Spring cleanup | 4h 00m | 3h 15m | −45m |
Illustration of the report, not a promise about your shop. The numbers come from your sheets and nowhere else — which is exactly why they're worth having.
Not a generic contact form. The questions you already ask on the phone, so you show up with the right gear instead of driving back.
Their answers tell us how long the job takes, so customers only see times that actually fit. No phone tag.
In your email before your week starts — Sunday night, Monday at five, whatever suits you. Print it and it goes on the dash.
Every week, on a day and time you pick, to collect your sheets and fix what isn't working. Week's a mess? Text us a photo of them instead.
Nobody is asking you to stop answering your phone. Book something over the phone, write it on the sheet like you always would, and text us a picture at the end of the day. It shows up on next week's board with everything else.
One board, whatever the source.
Month to month, cancel any time. There's a one-time setup fee for building your form and getting everything in place. We'll go over it at the walkthrough.
Forty-five minutes, free, no pitch, at a time that suits you. Call, text or email to set one up — you keep a write-up of your own operation either way.
We would love to work with you. We believe in showing up for you the same way you show up for your clients. Click the button below to set up a live, in-person walkthrough.
