One-time setup. Optional ongoing help. Software costs explained before you buy.

Package 01

Keep Track of Customer Requests

See who needs help and who needs a reply.

When someone fills out your website form, their details go into one customer list. You can see what they asked for, who is handling it and what needs to happen next.

For example: Someone asks about a bathroom remodel. Their request appears in your list, is assigned to a team member and gets a reminder to follow up.

What this does for you: Less searching through emails and fewer requests left unanswered.

What’s included

Includes one website form, a shared customer list for up to three team members, reminders and a simple progress view. We can also bring in up to 500 contacts from one prepared spreadsheet.

$499 one-time setup

Optional ongoing help: $59/month.

Package 02

Website Helper

Get the details before you call the customer back.

A chat helper on your website asks what the customer needs, where they need it and when. It answers common questions using information you provide, then sends your team a short summary. Questions it cannot answer go to your team.

For example: A homeowner needs a fence repaired. The helper asks for their location, the type of fence and a description of the damage. You get those details together with their contact information.

What this does for you: Less time asking the same questions and more useful information for the first conversation.

What’s included

Includes one website chat helper covering up to five services and twenty common questions. Phone calls and text messages are separate services.

$999 one-time setup

Optional ongoing help: $149/month.

Package 03

Easy Appointment Booking

Let customers choose an available time.

Customers book through a link, get a confirmation and receive email reminders. They can also cancel or move their appointment. You choose the hours and appointment types they can book.

For example: A customer books a haircut for Thursday at 2 p.m. The appointment appears on the barber's calendar, and the customer receives a reminder before their visit.

What this does for you: Less back-and-forth arranging appointments and fewer reminders to send yourself.

What’s included

Includes one location, up to three staff calendars, two appointment types and up to two email reminders per appointment.

$699 one-time setup

Optional ongoing help: $79/month.

Package 04

Easier Estimates

Prepare a clear price estimate without starting from scratch.

Choose the services and quantities for a job. The system uses your prices to work out the total and prepare a PDF with your business name. You can see which estimates customers have accepted and which are still waiting for an answer.

For example: A cleaner selects a three-bedroom home and adds oven cleaning. The estimate uses the cleaner's saved prices and is ready to check and send.

What this does for you: Less repeated typing and a consistent way to prepare and track estimates.

What’s included

Includes one estimate design for one type of business and up to twenty saved price items. You set the prices; payment collection is separate.

$899 one-time setup

Optional ongoing help: $99/month.

Package 05

New Customer Setup

Get the paperwork ready when a customer says yes.

When you mark a sale as accepted, the system creates the customer's project folder and task list, sends a welcome email and shows your team what needs to happen next.

For example: A customer agrees to a new website. Their project folder is created, your team gets its checklist and the customer receives an email explaining how to get started.

What this does for you: Less setup work for every new customer and a clear starting point for your team.

What’s included

Includes one repeatable setup process, up to ten checklist tasks, a project folder, a welcome email and connections to up to three other apps.

$1,199 one-time setup

Optional ongoing help: $149/month.

Prices are in US dollars and cover the work listed. We confirm the fit, full cost and start date before you commit. Sending a request does not charge you.

Clear from the start

You run the business.
We handle the setup.

We work with the software you already use when it can do the job. You get a short guide and 30 days of fixes for problems with the work we delivered.

Are there other costs?

Software subscriptions and usage charges are extra. We explain them before you buy. If your current software needs extra setup, we explain that price too. When you combine packages, we charge shared setup work once.

Do I have to pay every month?

No. Ongoing help is optional. It includes a monthly check and help with small fixes or changes during business hours: up to 30 minutes a month on the $59 and $79 plans, or 60 minutes on the $99 and $149 plans. We agree on a price before doing extra work. Separate software subscriptions may still be needed.

What happens after I ask?

We review what you need, check your current tools and confirm the work, price and start date with you. Then we set it up, test it and show you how to use it.

Can I buy more than one package?

Yes. Start with the task that takes the most time. We can connect packages and reuse setup work you already have.
