QuickTrade is the simplest way for tradespeople to manage incoming work without the admin headache. You get your own professional booking page that you can share with customers and stick on your social media profiles. When a customer fills in their details, the job lands straight in your app with everything you need: what they want doing, where they are, their availability, and photos of the work. From there, you can accept or decline the job, send a quote, and book it in. QuickTrade will automatically slot it into your schedule based on where you are and when you're free, so you're not wasting time driving across town between jobs. Here's how it works: 1. Share your booking link with customers (after a phone call with them, or just on your social media profiles). 2. Jobs come in with all the details upfront 3. Accept, quote and book with a couple of taps 4. QuickTrade schedules the job around your existing diary. 5. Your customer gets notified at every step No more back-and-forth texts. No more forgetting to reply. No more double bookings. What you get: - Your own branded booking page (quicktrade.uk/your-business-name) - Incoming job requests with full details and photos - Smart scheduling that accounts for travel time (based on the postcode of each job in your calendar). - Automatic customer notifications for bookings and updates - A clean calendar view of your upcoming work - Job tracking from first enquiry to completion QuickTrade is free for your first 10 incoming jobs. After that, it's just £19.99/month to keep everything running. No contracts, cancel whenever you want. Built specifically for sole traders and one-person operations. Whether you're a plumber, electrician, builder, joiner, plasterer, roofer, painter, or landscaper - if you're tired of the admin side of running a business, QuickTrade is for you. No bloated team CRM features, just the tools you need to run your week. Every job, handled.
