Scheduling and running the work
The calendar is the business. Everything else is paperwork about the calendar. This is the part that keeps one version of the week, on every phone that needs it.
Who this is for
For a business where the schedule lives in one person's head, a whiteboard, or a group text.
Front office, and the first half of a bigger build
What it looks like now
Three things that keep happening
- Somebody has to call around to find out where they are supposed to be.
- A change means five phone calls and one person still shows up at the wrong address.
- Photos, notes and materials for a job are spread across four camera rolls.
What gets built
Scheduling and running the work
One week, one screen, the same on every phone on the team.
Loera, retrofit
Team A, on site since 7:52
Sierra Ridge, step 4 of 5. Parts on the truck tonight.
Booking into the real calendar
Customers pick from what is genuinely free, not from a wish list.
One schedule, every phone
Everybody sees where to be without a group text.
Reminders both ways
The customer is reminded, and so is whoever is going.
On the way texts
Sent when somebody sets off, not when they remember to.
Day and route planning
The week laid out so the driving makes sense.
Photos and notes on the job
Attached where the job is, not sitting in a camera roll.
What changes
How the week is different
- Move a job and everybody who needs to know is told.
- Nobody calls the office to ask where they are going.
- The week is one thing, not four versions of one thing.
Asked most often
What people ask about scheduling and running the work
- Will it work with the calendar we already use?
- Usually yes. Connecting what you already pay for is nearly always cheaper than replacing it.
- What about the people who will not use an app?
- Then it reaches them as a text. A system nobody uses is not a system.
- Can customers book themselves?
- Yes, and only into times that are genuinely free. That is the whole difference between booking and a request.
