Tradies don’t get into the business to balance their cheques.
However, it’s becoming more and more important for tradies to keep track of their financials to make sure they’re bringing in the bread.
Fergus rescues tradies from all that admin and paperwork to make boosting their bottom lines a cinch.
Staying healthy
Fergus has loads of tools to help ensure a tradie’s business is bringing in a healthy cashflow to ensure its long-term success.
With high demand, prioritising jobs can be difficult. Fergus helps tradies identify their most profitable jobs, enabling you to focus on similar work to maximise your earnings.
“Fergus has been a game changer for me,” Luke Smith from Smith Brothers Building said.
“Now, I can see what jobs are current, what’s outstanding, and track everything from a central dashboard.”
The Fergus Go app allows tradies to stay updated with work on-site, ensuring they complete admin tasks easily throughout the day without having to catch up for hours afterward.
Peak performance
Keeping a team happy and well-supplied is key to a healthy operation.
Fergus makes tracking performance simple and easy-to-read thanks to its real-time job tracker.
“From the moment I saw it, I knew this dashboard was the way forward,” Josh from Waterford Plumbing said.
“It’s like a breath of fresh air for our operations – intuitive, seamless, and exactly what we needed.”
The margin tool allows you to check labour and material profits before sending quotes or invoices, eliminating the risk of under-pricing. Keeping jobs on budget is a common challenge for tradie business operators, but Fergus offers real-time analysis to help stay on track.
Tradies can use this data to inform customers early and adjust quotes if necessary to protect profits. Speaking of performance, Fergus helps when it comes to tracking how each tradie is working. Fergus provides a simple overview to track hours worked, charged or undercharged and to see who on the team is putting in the hard yakka or needs some extra help on-site.
“Fergus has given me clarity and it’s given me direction,” Luke Smith from Smith Brothers Building said.
