Lance had always been proud of his company, the family-founded business he’d built from the ground up. Specializing in commercial water safety inspections, it had a solid reputation and a loyal client base. But as the business grew, so did the chaos.
Lance and his small team managed their operations using a patchwork of tools: Google Calendar, endless spreadsheets, and a mountain of emails. Each day felt like a never-ending struggle to keep up. They were constantly bogged down in administrative work, manually copying and pasting data, and chasing invoices that never seemed to get paid on time.
We were buried under a mountain of emails and spreadsheets,” Lance recalled. “It felt like we were always playing catch-up, and the stress was through the roof.
The inefficiencies were taking a toll on Lance. His team was stretched thin, and he felt like he was always one step away from disaster. Missed service requests, delayed invoices, and scheduling headaches were becoming the norm. It was hard to imagine how they could grow when they were just trying to survive.
That’s when Lance met Amanda and The Fractionals, a team of experts known for helping small businesses like his streamline operations and regain control. Amanda took one look at the company’s processes and saw the potential for transformation.
Amanda and The Fractionals introduced Lance to Jobber, a service management software designed to take the chaos out of field service operations. The Fractionals didn’t just suggest the tool—they walked Lance and his team through every step of the implementation, ensuring they knew exactly how to leverage it.
Amanda showed Lance how to use Jobber to store all client details in one place. No more digging through years of emails to find inspection histories—everything was now organized and easily accessible.
The Fractionals helped Lance's company integrate a Jobber service request form directly into their website. Clients could now submit requests seamlessly, cutting out the back-and-forth emails and saving Lance hours of work each week.
Amanda knew that technician time was precious. With Jobber’s routing features, she helped Lance’s team plan their days more efficiently, reducing travel time and allowing them to complete more jobs each day.
Jobber completely transformed our workflow, we went from spending hours on admin tasks to having a system that practically runs itself. Our cash flow stabilized almost overnight. We weren’t scrambling to collect payments anymore. It was a huge relief.
The impact of working with Amanda and The Fractionals was almost immediate. Jobber’s automated invoicing feature meant that Lance’s company no longer had to chase down payments. Invoices were sent automatically, and clients could even store payment methods for faster transactions.
Scheduling, once a constant source of frustration, became a well-oiled machine. Technicians were spending less time on the road and more time on the job, boosting productivity and reducing wasted hours. Lance even found himself with more time to think strategically about the business rather than putting out fires all day.
Key Takeaways:
Lance’s journey with Amanda and The Fractionals has only just begun. With Jobber in place, he’s already seeing the benefits of a more efficient operation. But the real excitement lies in what’s next: taking their newfound systems to the next level with Monday.com.
While Jobber helped Lance’s company get a handle on their operations, Amanda wasn’t done yet. She introduced Lance to the idea of using monday.com for even greater efficiency. With automated email reminders and performance tracking, she hinted at how the next phase of their transformation could look.
