Take the measure-up, send the quote that night, lock the pour date and the truck around it, and have the invoice out before you have washed the barrow.
Online booking
Put the measure-up online and it lands while you are still screeding, with the address, the square metres and any slab to break out first.

Boxing up, steel, the pump and the trucks point at one morning. Book the pour and the prep days sit in front of it, so a bumped pour moves the run.

Any chance of a price on a new driveway? There is an old slab out the front that would need breaking out first.
Nothing free until the middle of next month and the driveway still comes in, with the address and the size on it, ready for the first opening.
Plain broom finish, exposed aggregate, or coloured and stencilled with a border. Quote all three on one page and let the customer pick.
The finish is an option group, so picking exposed aggregate moves the price on screen. Same for thickness, mesh, a bobcat day for prep, and breaking out the old slab.
Enter the area and the rate does the rest, so a quote written on the tailgate matches the one you would have written at the desk.
Break-out, cart-away and fill sit separately from the pour, which is what stops a customer thinking the concrete cost twice what it did.
Document numbering is set once and does not move, so the quote you sent and the invoice that follows it are traceable to each other.
A slab quote is a few thousand of somebody's money, so it gets read twice and slept on. Seeing that it was opened is the difference between a follow-up call and a nagging one.
Each quote says which of the three it is and when it was last opened, so the ones worth a call are obvious at a glance.
The moment it is signed it converts into a booking, so nobody re-types a driveway into the calendar at nine at night.
Put a date on the quote and a rate you wrote in autumn cannot be held against you in the spring.
Every pour you do
Priced off square metres with the crossover and the fall to the street as options, so a long narrow drive and a wide double both come out right.
Quoted as a finish upgrade on the same slab area, with the stone choice as its own option so the customer sees what the pebble costs before they pick it.
Square metres and thickness drive the price, and the site visit to check the fall books itself before you commit a truck to the morning.
Booked as a run of days rather than one visit, so the prep, the steel inspection and the pour each hold their own place on the calendar.
Often the second job on the same address. Book it off the customer record and their driveway job, finish and rate are already sitting there.
Colour, pattern and sealer each carry a price movement, so the quote adds up in front of the customer instead of arriving as one number.
Small work that fills a half day. Slot ranking on Pro puts them beside a job you already have on rather than an hour the other way.
Quoted around the shape rather than a rectangle, with the coping and drainage as line items so the customer can cut one without redoing the quote.
The demolition day, the cart-away and the pour sit as separate visits, which is the only way the second week reads honestly to the customer.
Booked back onto the same job a few days after the pour, so the return visit is on the calendar before you have left the site.
Priced per square metre off the existing slab, with the crack repair as an option because you rarely know the count until you are standing on it.
Every concreting day is a chain. Boxing, steel, trucks, finish. When one link moves the rest has to move with it.
The prep days in front and the cut behind stay attached to the job, so a wet Tuesday does not turn into four phone calls.
The new time is on their phone before you have put yours down. Nobody drives out to a job that was stood down last night.
Moving work around the day costs nothing. Automating what fills the gap is the part that sits on Pro.
The gap between finishing a driveway and getting paid is usually a week of nobody doing anything. Close it on the day.
Record what landed against the job on any plan. Nothing about the free plan stops you taking money.
Send the link while the finish is still curing and watch it clear. No card machine and no invoice sitting in a glovebox.
Prep and pour can carry their own payment request on Pro. They sit after the booking, not at the point someone picks a date.
Concrete has a delivery radius whether you like it or not, and a job the wrong side of town costs you a truck, not just a drive.

As you grow with us you can go Pro.
Bookables does not check trade licensing, and licensing here is a state matter rather than a national one. In Queensland, for example, the QBCC issues a Concreting trade contractor licence covering formwork, reinforcement and concrete, with structural work like house slabs and footings sitting outside that class. Check your own state regulator and carry whatever it says.
Yes. Area in square metres is one of the pricing drivers, so a 60 square metre driveway and a 22 square metre shed slab price themselves off the same rate. Finish, thickness and mesh sit on top as options, each with its own price movement.
The pour is the booking. Prep, boxing and steel go in as their own visits in front of it, and the tidy-up or cut day behind it. Move the pour and you can see immediately what else has to shift, because the whole run sits on one calendar rather than in your head.
Drag the job to the next dry day. The customer gets the new date and the crew sees it on their phone. Nothing is re-typed and nobody turns up to a formed-up job you already stood down.
Cash and bank transfer are recorded by hand on any plan, at no cost. Card payments come with Pro, which means you can send a link from the driveway and watch it clear before you hook the trailer up. Staged payments across prep and pour are Pro as well, and they sit after the booking rather than at checkout.
Yes. Tax is a setting on your account and on each service, so quotes, invoices and receipts all carry the same treatment. Turn it off and nothing on the document mentions it.
