Sound familiar?
- Insurance jobs where the homeowner is waiting on the insurer.
- Large re roof invoices that sit for weeks.
- Storm season repair jobs you never got round to following up.
How your employee handles it
"Waiting on the insurer"
Your employee notes it, checks back in a sensible time and asks for an update, without hassling the homeowner.
Storm season backlog
Dozens of small repair invoices chased one by one, with nothing forgotten.
Big re roof balance
Friendly first, firmer if it's ignored, and you're told before the final notice.
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
- Will it chase insurers directly?
- It chases whoever the invoice is addressed to in Xero. If that's the homeowner, it messages them and notes what they say about the insurer.
- What if a customer disputes the bill?
- Your employee pauses that invoice and tells you by text. You decide what happens next.
- 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.
