Trades and contractors: quotes written and chased for you.

You’re on the tools all day, so calls get missed, quotes get written at night and nobody chases the ones that go quiet. I build AI tools that text back missed callers, turn your site notes into quotes and follow up until you get a yes or no. Your team approves everything.

Where the week goes in a trade business

In a trade or contracting business with 5 to 25 people, the paperwork follows the work home.

  • A customer calls while you’re on a roof or under a sink. By the time you call back, they’ve booked someone else.
  • You walk a job, take photos and fill a page with notes. The quote gets typed up at the kitchen table after dinner.
  • Quotes go out and go quiet. Chasing them means remembering who you sent what to, and when.
  • Jobs need booking, moving and confirming, and every finished job needs its paperwork and an invoice.

The owner ends up doing the office work at night, and the best jobs go to whoever answered first.

What I’d take off the desk first

  1. Missed callers get a text back in your words, so they know you’ll call
  2. Site notes and photos turned into a written quote for you to check
  3. Quiet quotes chased until you get a yes or no
  4. Finished jobs turned into an invoice draft as soon as the job is marked done

Which ones come first depends on where your hours go. I work that out with you on the free call.

For example: a normal Tuesday, before and after

A made-up day to show the idea. Your week will look different, and I map the real one with you on the call.

Before

  • Two calls come in while you’re loading the van. You see them at lunch.
  • You call both back. One has already booked another contractor.
  • You measure up a bathroom refit and fill a page with notes.
  • You type that quote up at home, then try to remember which of last week’s quotes need a chase.

After

  • Both callers get a text back in your words, saying when you’ll call.
  • You call back two people who are expecting to hear from you.
  • You send your notes and photos from the van. A quote draft lands on the dashboard for you to check.
  • Last week’s quiet quotes have had a follow-up, and any replies are waiting on the dashboard.

How the InboundOS Install works for a trade business

A four-week build, done with you. Your business keeps running the old way while I set it up. More about me.

  1. Week 1

    A dashboard built for your business

    It starts with a free 30-minute call where you walk me through how a job moves from the first call to the final invoice. In week 1 I build your custom dashboard. It's the one screen where your team sees the work coming in and approves what the system drafts.

  2. Weeks 2 to 4

    Six automations, two a week

    Each week I add two automations, six in total, aimed at the jobs that eat the most hours. They run on your own accounts and connect to the software you already use. Your old way of working keeps running until you've checked everything.

  3. After

    Your team owns it

    Your team gets a walkthrough video for each tool. You own all of it, and it keeps running if you ever stop working with me. You can keep me on month to month to watch the system and change it as you grow. Cancel anytime.

Questions trade owners ask

Will customers get messages we haven’t seen?

Not unless you choose that. Replies are drafted for your team to check. You decide if anything can go out on its own, like a short missed-call text your team wrote once.

We’re not technical. Can our team run this?

Yes. Your team uses it from a simple screen, with no code. Every tool comes with a walkthrough video.

Do we have to replace the job software we use now?

No. I connect to the tools you already have. If you want to switch to something new, I’ll help you move over, and your old setup keeps running until you’ve checked everything.
