It's time to get off the tools
We have been noticing a trend lately of "tradies" who are on the tools all day and as they clock up the hours each week they forget to look at the day to day workings of their business
One Umbrella has been carefully designed as a one stop shop for all business solutions and business planning
Business Management Systems:
Accounting and Invoicing: Implementing robust accounting and invoicing systems helps tradies keep track of their financial transactions, expenses, and income. This ensures accurate record-keeping and helps in tax compliance.
Project Management: One Umbrella can offer project management tools to streamline job scheduling, progress tracking, and task assignment, helping tradies manage their projects efficiently.
Communication and Collaboration:
Messaging Platforms: Providing tradies with communication tools allows them to stay connected with their team members, clients, and suppliers. This fosters better collaboration and ensures everyone is on the same page.
Document Sharing: A centralised platform for sharing documents, contracts, and project plans can improve efficiency and reduce the risk of miscommunication.
Scheduling and Time Management:
Calendar Integration: Integrating a calendar system can help tradies schedule appointments, track deadlines, and manage their time effectively.
Task Reminders: Automated reminders for upcoming tasks and deadlines can assist tradies in staying organized and meeting project milestones.
Client Relationship Management (CRM):
