          Technology is the necessary tool for every contractor

          Running a modern contracting company without technology is like showing up to the job site without the proper tools. Sure the job may get completed, however was it as efficient or profitable as it should’ve been?

          Applications and digital tools are paving the way for service providers to increase profitability and quality of life by taking a load off your plate. 

          How do I know which digital tools would help me? 

          Think about your customers’ experience from start to finish.  When a customer reaches out to you, what is their experience like? 

          When a new customer reaches out they should receive an immediate response with steps to make it as easy as possible for them to work with you.  As a contractor we are only paid for business closed.  Let’s ensure the first step of the process is enticing. 

          For clients that use BidMyVid it could be as simple as a message like this. 

          Thank you for reaching out.  We’re currently working on a job site and would like to provide you with the answers you’re looking for as soon as possible. 

          Please Send me a video using BidMyVid.  It’ll allow me to get a better understanding of the job and provide a quote. 

          Download BidMyVid https://bidmyvid.app.link/eEWfmmYCVjb

          Once you’ve created your account 

          Select my profile here https://bidmyvid.app.link/zsejZZNCVjb

          you’ll add me as a contact, upload a video of your job request and see previous services I’ve provided for example service profile. 

          Within the App you’ll see their video, be able to ask questions to further qualify, and submit a bid. Saving you loads of time and money!

          How do you handle bids, contracts, receipts, paperwork

          If you’re managing your business via paper it’s time to evaluate new options. 

          Paper documents leave massive room for error. Not to mention they are not the most cost effective option. 

          You’ll want to seek out document management systems or CRM(Client relationship management) tools.  These will help you organize all of your jobs and documents digitally and allow you to pull them up anywhere anytime.

          No more forgetting documents or plans at the office when it’s all on your phone.

          What communication do you continue with the client after you complete the job? 

          Do you have a plan for requesting clients to leave you a review? 

          What about a plan to reach back out in a few months to see if they have any additional work for you. 

          It’s important to always have a review follow-up, referral job request, seasonal jobs notification and future retention communications, seasonal jobs  to be sent to the customers. 

          Communicating with your clients at this level will open the door for more jobs in the future, as well as increased customer satisfaction. 

          If you need assistance message with communicating with your clients after the job message Marketing@bidmyvid.com 

          The BidMyVid app is the answer to your prayers. With just a few taps on this application, you can bid on any job with all of the necessary information at hand and then keep track of how many contracts you’ve won over time. Not only does it save contractors both time and money but also provides them with an income stream that generates more revenue than they would be able to earn otherwise!

          Construction Project Complete: What Comes Next?

          Design Phase

          The first thing to do is assess the size of the project. This will help you find its cost and give you enough information to create an estimate. Cost can be important for some people. Once you’ve provided your estimate and agree to the construction plan, the next steps are to schedule, review the materials selection to ensure you are ready to complete the project as proposed.

          Construction Phase

          Before the project starts, materials need to be checked to ensure that they are readily available and ordered.

          The contractor then reviews the site before starting construction to ensure everything is ready. Inspections should include all area’s that will be involved in the construction process.

          Post Construction Phase

          Once the job is completed it’s important that you take pictures and videos of the construction site. This will allow you to share the pre construction phase as well as what the job looked like after final inspection. This information is critical to assist with winning future construction contract.

          Documenting the pre-construction and post construction photo’s works as a rolling portfolio for customers to view.

          Now that you have all the photo’s from the site. Contractors should take the time to follow-up with the customer to ensure that they are satisfied with the work that was provided. It’s also important to reach out to the customer for future referrals and potential projects.

          If you’re looking for an easy way to facilitate these business best practices learn more at bidmyvid.com.

          Set yourself up for success with future construction projects

          Business growth happens at a higher rate when we increase our client retention rates. This is no different when working as a general contractor. You’re an expert in the construction industry.

          How do we naturally increase our customer retention without pestering the customer? We do this through education! You are the expert of your craft. Help your customers become on the same page. Through the power of email and text messages we can very easily remind our clients about seasonal projects such are blowing out sprinklers, maintaining the air conditioning.

          Building a service business that is high demand can leave Contractors jammed.

          Finding ways to say YES is!

          “I don’t turn down work if I can manage it; there is just so much of it, it’s hard to get to.”

          John Phillips, Owner – Beaver Heating and Cooling LLC.

          Finding the pain points in our current service marketplace is not hard. Its finding contractors that have availability to come out that seems to be the challenge. Trying to find a contractor in a sea of digital lead platforms WILL leave you feeling less than supported and disconnected from service providers.

          It is a grueling path to ride; to bare the unforgiving pavement of never-ending hours on the road to assess projects. The wear and tear on the fleet and on the service professional is breaking the levy. But what if there were a better way to VALUE everyone’s time involved?

          DAM the work and build the reservoir!

          No more DAMN leads that cause service professionals to run ragged trying to service everyone in curiosity, let alone in necessity. Now there is a way to save time and use it in a resourceful way. It’s about time to DAM the needs and help in a way that truly addresses concerns and offers a chance to foster the building of trust. Dam the opportunities in a way they have a chance to be addressed. Build the reservoir in a way to mange the flow rather than be overrun by it.

          The breakdown of trust when calling for help is something that has been degrading for decades. The volume has not slowed but the trust breakdown has made it challenging to effectively complete service needs without the anxiety caused by the lack of trust. As digitization has happened and the continuation of pattern to have gratification instantly, it has left service professionals on the highway of endless margin loss and time loss. Twitching like road kill, the time to fix this challenge has come

          Saving Service Sanity by giving time back!

          Built for service business by service professionals, BidMyVid aims to give time back when it comes to getting repairs done in one take! Features that allow a deeper understanding as to who we are working with is the start to fostering the rebuilding of trust within the service marketplace.

          As we continue to help contractors be “POWERED BY BIDMYVID” it comes with a loyal support team to help convert and secure opportunities. Chasing leads only adds to the cost of services rising and heightened anxiety. With digitization comes the opportunity to use if for good. To weave solutions that bring hope that things are possible with out the challenges to align ahead of time. No longer are LEADS a need. The true value comes in the support and care to help service businesses save time when it comes to running a smooth operation.

            Drive Where?

            Offering time and insight comes at a cost as the time spent driving is often a hindsight shrinkage margin unaccounted for.

            SAVE TIME and THE BOTTOM LINE!

            BidMyVid doesn’t want you to be a Frustrated Driver off to give another estimate.

            DRIVING LESS, MAKES MORE!

            As a former contractor as well as being blue-collar born, I know that driving is part of the territory. But it doesn’t ALWAYS have to be! Countless hours offering insight, on-site that compounds with the time spent driving adds up in a world of instant gratification with unrealistic time and budget expectations. Deploying BidMyVid® in your service business will allow a knowing in advance if the project is a fit for both parties and it has never been more important.

            Traveling miles and hours to assess projects can be costly. Clients dread the “ESTIMATE FEE” and Service Professionals can find themselves driving to no avail as projects are not a fit for the schedule or the available resource of each Service Professional.

            The landscape of service industry has changed in many ways. No longer are we needing ways to “BUY LEADS” and be RIPPED OFF from large Marketing Platforms because the way of SHARING BUSINESS is what has always prevailed. Admittingly it has taken time for our team to weave the right technology layers together to catch up to how we operate at a fundamental core as a service industry with ETHICS, so now BidMyVid® exists, it allows the next evolution of the dreadful “LEAD” to the now “Opportunity” shared.

            Contracting professionals have referred each other for eons as our dedicated and loyal clients ask for more and more help. We are glad to provide a solution that could lead to an outcome that is favorable for both parties; that in itself is fulfilling.

            How does driving less and sharing business equal a better bottom line?

            The digitization of services marketplace has created a toxic environment for service professionals. It is absurd to think that the very people that are asking for help from Service Professionals do not know that the current business models driving the marketplace are harmful and abusive to say the least.

            Well, that is now a past statement of fact that no long is! As the Generation 5 and evolution comes to be, it is simple to stay connected in ways that SAVE TIME and reduce driving for ballpark estimate opportunities. BidMyVid® solves all the challenges of clients sending every and any which way, various methods to get in touch with us. Filters stand in the way as “Directories” or home advising sites that offer a redirection away from how they may not be helping those that are here to help others.

            It was natural for the next step in my journey evolving as The Fix It Queen™, to move to circle the wagons around contractors, my hearts center. For having such a deep respect for true labor, skilled and brilliant labor; seeing my grandfather, father, uncles, aunts, business partners and myself work and toil in our skilled-trades profession, it bothered me to see the challenges we faced as digitation occurred and online search engines ranked great marketers over GREATE SERVICE. As service professionals and blue-collar community, our industries got left behind, UNTIL NOW!

            Platforms are the NOW! Search engine are secondary. We hold planforms that keep us connected in many ways over the notorious search options. With the GREAT SOCIAL MEDIA BLACKOUT, we clearly saw that platforms are a connected space. The benefit to us is APPS leveled the playing field. We, as the contracting community can now have our OWN ENVIRONMENT! There are gaming platforms, there are social platforms and there are UTILITY platforms!

            This is where the solutionist of the world CAN truly live. Not survive from the damages of oversold leads and high prices of customer contacts where there is no TRUE CONTACT made. The opportunity to THRIVE is here! The simple function and utility that serves a purpose to improve the quality of life exists. With social media crashes showing us that running a service business on a social platform can leave us all in a blackout and the continued rise in marketing costs to feebly rank against large marketing platforms, it is crucial to implement platforms and APP soluti8ons that are truly built to serve.

            Marketing costs and other shrinkage margins seen and unforeseen plague small businesses. The challenges for contractors are even more tremulous when navigating construction phases or budget designations with margins unmanaged and unforeseen. Leveraging complete projects and having challenges outside our efforts and control create havoc in sustainability. This is a small pinhole view of other degrees we face in the blue-collar world.

            This is WHY. It’s not about anything but TIME.

            Our team efforts to solve the BIGGEST challenge first; how to integrate the highest touch medium, video, in a way that truly saves time. The digital tool missing from every Contractors tool belt and now the only tool they will ever need to save time from driving aimlessly to no avail. Chasing LEADS to recapture the losses from oversold and recoupable leads as well as the shrinkage from a being offered a “CREDIT” is now a thing of the past.

Now is the time to save time from driving and use that time to learn more way to operate a business more effectively.
