I really appreciate you taking the time to create this video, I'm so impressed with your communication skills. I'm practically sold on this platform, I'm used to service titan. But because I am a smaller company just getting started they wouldn't let me use their program. House call pro is going to transform things right off the bat. Thanks again!
Hey, thanks! Very informative. Have you tried or heard of Field Rocket? Trying to decide right now between Housecall Pro, Jobber, and Field Rocket. Field Rocket has a free version, but Housecall Pro and Jobber don't. Seems simple, but also don't have as many reviews out as these other ones.
I haven't heard of Field Rocket! But there are a bunch of new CRMs and field service management apps coming out now. I think you're safe picking the one that feels like a fit based on budget and features. At the time I shot this video, Housecall Pro was my recommendation for most people. It still is. But there are a lot more options now.
Sorry for the late reply! Email me at reuben@gosearchparty.com and I'll send a copy of my carpet cleaning "on the job" checklist over to you. It's the checklist my employees filled out for every job they performed
I think there are better tools like GoHighLevel: www.gohighlevel.com/?fp_ref=reuben48 Reach out to me if that’s something you’re interested in, because my company @BookCleaningJobs could help you with this type of thing
this was really informative!! can you do a in depth review where you screen record of the software and do a tutorial that way.. that would be so greatly appreciated :)
Thanks for watching! Any specific Housecall Pro features you would want to see in a screen record tutorial? I have an old Housecall Pro tutorial for carpet cleaners on my other channel, but it needs to be updated based on the new features HCP has rolled out: ua-cam.com/play/PLHGPcv3WvhoYbkf4bD6xsZqlDY6hOkqjH.html
Hello Reuben! This is an excellent video, thank you so much for the information! I had a quick question regarding credit card payments, is there a way to upcharge customers the credit card fee automatically?
Thank you for watching! There is no way to automatically charge the credit card fee to customers in Housecall Pro. It needs to be done manually :( At my carpet cleaning biz, we raised our prices instead of charging the fee back to the customer.
I do alot of work for plumbing companies, and each plumber has around ten jobs I need to invoice to the company. can I lock in that plumber and plumber companies address and also add in the customers address??
There are a couple of ways you could handle this. Probably the easiest way is to make the plumbing company your customer in HCP, then add the customer’s address in the job notes. I think you can also save multiple addresses to a single customer profile. So you could have 1 customer profile for a plumbing company, and keep adding additional addresses for each customer they give you. The HCP facebook group is an excellent place for questions like this, too. You’ll get a ton of helpful responses from other HCP users very quickly. Good luck with your biz!
To attach along with an invoice? I think so… you can upload photos to attach with invoices. So you could just snap pics of the receipts and attach those
I don't think so - not at this time. You can add your Housecall Pro online booking link into your Facebook messenger autoresponder though. But I don't think you can integrate HCP and FB msgr or forms at this time.
Hello, I am almost through my free trial with them and just saw your video. Would I still be able to use the 50% off if I’ve already signed up and tried it out a little bit? I just don’t feel like the free trial is long enough to really get a feel for everything! Thanks for the video and sharing your knowledge!
Unfortunately in the past, I don't think HCP team has allowed the 50% discount retroactively. But you can always try reaching out to HCP support using the chat bubble to see if they can extend an offer on your free trial. Good luck!
I'd recommend building your website on something like Wordpress. Then connecting the website to your Housecall Pro online booking portal. That's what we do for all of our clients at my agency BookCleaningJobs. Hit me up if you need a website or a referral for somebody who specializes in sites for your type of business: support@bookcleaningjobs.com
@@reubenrock That would be best. Would have to explain the difference in pay if they see what the client pays versus what the owner pays the techs. Cheers
Hi, great vid , just wondering what about paying your contractors? Is there’s a feature that tracks how many jobs each contractor has completed so both them and you see how much work they have done and how much they need to be payed, and does it let you pay them through the program ? just wondering
Yes and no… Yes, you can track how many jobs your contractors do and how much the invoice amount is on those jobs. Add them as employees in HCP, and it’s easy to calculate how much to pay your contractors. But no, you can’t pay them in HCP. I use Gusto to pay contractors, and I used it to pay my FTE’s when I ran a carpet cleaning franchise, too: gusto.com/r/reuben4d97

Thank you for your honesty regarding Houscall Pro! Definitely gonna get this for my fledgling service based business.
Hope HCP works great for you!

Thanks Reuben for the insight. I would love to review your checklist that seems quite proven!

I already have a list from car detailing. Can I leverage it for carpet cleaning using HCP by sending text messages to those car detailing clients?
I think there are better tools like GoHighLevel: www.gohighlevel.com/?fp_ref=reuben48
Reach out to me if that’s something you’re interested in, because my company @BookCleaningJobs could help you with this type of thing

@@reubenrock thank you for getting back to me, an updated version would be appreciated but I'm currently going through the course you made right now!!

@@reubenrock oh I see, thank you for letting me know! Definitely considering getting this software :)
Awesome video well done ty

Thank you for this video. How much does it cost per post card?
Extremely affordable - $0.86 per postcard!

Can you scan receipts in HCP?
To attach along with an invoice? I think so… you can upload photos to attach with invoices. So you could just snap pics of the receipts and attach those
You sold me on Housecall Pro
Oh wow, maybe Housecall should just hire me??? 😂 I hope you love the software! It was a huge boost to my carpet cleaning biz when I switched to HCP
Does it integrate with Facebook messenger and forms?
I don't think so - not at this time. You can add your Housecall Pro online booking link into your Facebook messenger autoresponder though. But I don't think you can integrate HCP and FB msgr or forms at this time.

Is it possible to pay someone to create our website via Housecall pro? How would that work?

@@reubenrock Ah ok, thank you so much
100% real

Two things can be true, friend… HCP’s biggest promoters are their customers. Because the software is good.
Hello, can field techs see how much we charged for the job?
Yes, they can see the job total. I'm actually not sure if you're able to hide prices from your field techs. It may be possible
@@reubenrock That would be best. Would have to explain the difference in pay if they see what the client pays versus what the owner pays the techs. Cheers

Hi Reuben,i'm a ChemDry Franchisee here in Ireland,were you with our Company?
No, I was with a different franchise. Heaven’s Best Carpet Cleaning (low moisture cleaners)
Where are ur call centers
Do you mean Housecall Pro’s call centers? Not sure, but they are based in San Diego. I think a lot of their employees are located there.
That’s a lot of talking, I just wanted to see what the app looks like
Rude
how much did you sell your business for?
Not enough ;) but it was my first biz sale, and I made every mistake in the book. Some day I will tell the story in full detail...
