AI for Trades Working Across Woking: Staying on the Job While the Quotes Chase Themselves

A day split across the borough

The borough covers more ground than the town centre. Its areas include Goldsworth Park to the north-west, Horsell beyond the canal, Knaphill to the west, Sheerwater and West Byfleet in the north-east, and Old Woking and Westfield to the south and south-east. A firm taking jobs in all of them spends a good part of each day driving, on a roof or behind a wall.

This directory lists no trades categories at present, so the example below is general. It applies to a plumber, an electrician, a builder, a landscaper or a decorator.

Where the leads go missing

• A message arrives while you are on a ladder.
• A quote is sent in the evening, then nobody mentions it again.
• A customer asks a simple question and waits a day for the answer.
• A job is agreed by text and never reaches the diary.

Each is small. Added up over a month they are the work you did not win.

What can be handed over

His website lists tasks that match a trade's week: replying to new enquiries within minutes, day or night; following up each lead until they book or say no; sending quotes and chasing the unanswered ones; booking jobs into the diary; and sending confirmations and reminders. Invoices and chasing late payments are on the list too.

What should not be

Pricing a job you have not seen, or promising a date you cannot keep. A good set-up asks for photos and the postcode, tells the customer what happens next and lets you do the pricing.

How it would start

A free call about how you work now. Then an audit of the repetitive jobs. Then the build and install in the tools you already use, followed by training and support. Dean Keating starts with the one task that makes the biggest difference. His website says you leave the call with a plan to use with or without him.

He is based in Horndean, Hampshire, so the work is remote. He can visit businesses in Hampshire or nearby, according to his site.

If you also need a website, he builds those for trades as well.
