Texting you
Sound familiar?
- Clients who pick at touch ups as a reason not to pay.
- Rental repaints where the agent, owner and tenant all point at each other.
- End of month cash crunch because three jobs paid late at once.
How your employee handles it
"Just one more touch up"
If a customer raises an issue with the work, your employee stops chasing and tells you, so you can sort it and get paid.
Rental repaint
Your employee keeps the agent in the loop and follows up on the payment run date they give.
Three late payers
Each gets the right reminder at the right time, with nothing missed.
Runs by text, like the rest of your business
No app to check on site. Your employee texts you when someone pays, promises or pushes back, and you reply with what you want done. Works with Xero and QuickBooks. Free on one invoice, paid plans from $19 a month plus GST.
Why not just text them yourself?
You could. Here's why most tradies stop.
You: Chasing a mate or a regular is awkward and can sour the job.
Your employee: Does the firm part, so you stay the good guy.
You: "I'll pay Friday" gets forgotten by Monday.
Your employee: Remembers every promise and checks again when it's missed.
You: You're sending reminders at 9pm after a long day.
Your employee: Works business hours while you're on the tools.
You: Customers end up with your personal number.
Your employee: Texts from its own Australian mobile number (paid plans), so billing stays off your phone.
Questions people ask
- What happens if a customer complains about the work?
- Your employee stops chasing that invoice and tells you straight away. It doesn't argue or make promises about the work.
- Is there a lock in contract?
- No. Plans are month to month and you can cancel any time.
- I use ServiceM8, Tradify or simPRO. Does it still work?
- Yes. Connect ServiceM8 and your employee knows the job behind each invoice, so it can answer questions about the work. With Tradify or simPRO, if your invoices end up in Xero or QuickBooks, your employee picks them up.
- Will it upset my customers?
- It starts friendly and only gets firmer slowly. It texts on business days between 8am and 7pm, never on public holidays, never more than once every three days, and stops when someone replies STOP.
