Make sure you are getting 10% rebates on all equipment purchases, 5-8% coops dollars, consignment. I would also fight for prebates. For an example I get 75k every quarter as a prebate. These manufactures are making so much money on us. Also you are over paying 10-20% on your equipment
Let’s go! Don’t ever pay for financing fees. It’s a scam I fell into that trap. Customers don’t care if it’s 12.99% for 15 years with a merchant fee of zero oppose to some greensky bullshit 20% fee on some 0% interest free loan for 60 months..we also offer 0% for 18 months Wells Fargo.
@therobertbrooks What equipment are you using? They have agreements with multiple vendors where you get back 3-5% of your spend. It costs us 2k a month but every quarter we get back 40k..
As an HVAC owner go to your supplier ask for the following:
Prebate 5% of spend
Rebate 5-10% of spend
Coop marketing dollars 10% of spend
Also sign up for a better practice group thats an additional 5% rebate every quarter.
p.s private equity gets better pricing plus all the above and their rebate is 20%.
We tried Dispatch Pro…it’s basically using Dialpad with it integrated in Service Titan. After a year, we switched directly to Dialpad and saved money. If money isn’t an issue, it’s great but mega expensive.
We also use Marketing Pro. I think we pay $1200 a month for it. It’s okay.
I would suggest using what you pay for first before paying more for extra service titan features.
@naterez94@STLChrisH Trying avoca. I will let you know how it goes. I tested it out and the tech was incredible. DM me if you want to the number to test it out. It creates the job booking on Service titan as well.
@farrowhardy1 West coast marker. Same here. We are working longer hours and creating more opportunities. Revenue is the same but a lot harder to make it. Great opportunity to work harder fix procedures and come out stronger when the economy shifts.
@Will_Schryver I love my Wolfpack but being a football fan is also tough. I have been waiting 20 years for a great season. P.s they have you guys a beating last week ;)
