How do I book the takedown?
Book the install as a job, then clone it for the takedown — same customer and lines, new number, new date. Set the install to repeat seasonally and completing it books next year's.
Can I take a deposit when they approve?
Yes. Require a deposit on the quote as a percent or a fixed amount. The customer pays it online when they approve; the balance is invoiced when the job is done.
Does the preview work for holiday lighting?
Yes. Add example photos of your product to the catalog item, upload the customer's house, mark where it goes and render. It draws the house at night with the lights where you marked.
Can I track what is in the trailer?
Yes. Inventory tracks stock by location — the shop, each truck — and the scan screen receives, transfers and checks items out from a phone, with a record of who moved what.
Do you send me leads?
Yes, if you want them — add your trade to your marketplace profile and homeowners can pick it once you are live. Homeowners post jobs in the Hire-a-Pro marketplace; jobs matched to your trade and service area land in your Requests queue with no per-lead fee. Local leads are included on the Business plan, or you can add the Local Leads module to Starter or Pro for $49/mo.
Which plan do I need?
Starter covers the CRM, scheduling and calendar, quotes and invoices, the customer email inbox, the time clock, free CRM import and the mobile app. Pro adds the client portal, e-sign approvals, the dispatch board, GPS time clock, marketing automation, reviews, job costing, payment plans and the website builder. Business adds accounting with bank feeds, sales tax, payroll, the sales pipeline, the ads manager and local leads. Prices are on the pricing page.
Does it work on a phone in the field?
Yes. It runs full-size in any browser on your computer, and on a phone it installs to the home screen straight from the browser. Same account, same data, whichever you pick up.
Can I bring my customers and quotes with me?
Yes. Import clients, quotes and inventory from spreadsheets or the app you are leaving. It is included on every plan, and your data stays exportable afterwards.
