Kickback Platform
Read full descriptionHide full description
Kickback is the AI-powered platform for the home service pro's back office. It connects to the tools you already run your business on and turns your estimates, jobs, and invoices into work that actually gets done. Follow up on every quote, automatically drafted, ready to send. Most estimates don't die because the price was wrong. They die because nobody followed up. Kickback Follow-Up enrolls your open estimates into proven follow-up cadences and hands your reps a simple daily queue: • The Outreach Outbox: open the app and see exactly who's due for a touch today. Swipe through them one at a time, no spreadsheets, no sticky notes. • AI-drafted texts and emails: every touch comes with a draft written from the real details of the estimate. The customer, the scope, even insights from linked sales-call recordings. Edit it or send it as-is. • Send from your own number: texts go out through your iPhone's Messages app, from you, not a robo-number your customers won't recognize. Emails send through your connected account. • The right photo, every time: build a media library of finished jobs, before-and-afters, and walkthrough videos. Kickback auto-tags them and suggests the best attachment for each message. • A pipeline that stays honest: log the outcome of every touch — replied, thinking it over, won, lost — and watch open value, overdue follow-ups, and 30-day wins on one dashboard. • Push notifications: know when follow-ups are due so nothing slips. Every dollar in its place. Kickback Costing pulls vendor invoices from suppliers like Sherwin-Williams, The Home Depot, and Lowe's, matches them to the right Housecall Pro job automatically, and syncs approved costs back — so your job costing reflects reality without anyone chasing receipts. Connect Housecall Pro, your vendors, and your call-recording tools a single time. Every Kickback product — including team insights and coaching features on the way — runs on the same connected data. Invite your whole team, control who sees what, and keep a full activity history of every change. Built for the trades. Kickback is made for painting contractors and other home-service companies that run on Housecall Pro. If your quotes are going cold in someone's inbox, Kickback puts them back to work. *A Kickback Platform account is required. Some features require a connected CRM account, and sending texts uses the your iPhone's Messages app via iOS Shortcuts.
