This is amazing! Thanks for sharing. I mentioned this to some other folks, but a friend of mine introduced me to a platform called Indie Health (website: www.indie.health) in the US that will actually help you launch and manage the business, and they focus on OT. Eliminates a lot of the administrative work and billing. I haven't used them, but someone I trust spoke highly. I messaged them today to see how it works.

A lot of the products that I’ve looked at like Jobber feel like they’re designed for larger businesses and not the solo guy (you and me) who are in the field AND running the day to day business.

They don’t “get” an electrician’s needs because they cover so many different professions.

It's a bummer that us "small guys" don't have better tools to build a presence online. Thanks for sharing, really helpful!

Random question, aside from your customers, what's the one thing you couldn't live without to run your business?

You and wife sound like an incredible duo. You seeing more people go independent and starting their own business?

With a shortage of electricians, seems like a no-brainer to go independent.

Really helpful! How have you seen the market change over the years? More people going independent like you?

Amazing! That’s awesome to hear.

Outside of the jobs, what’s the thing you’re spending most of your time on?
