Managing tasks has just gotten a lot easier for tradespeople. By using Bricks+Agent, leading property maintenance software, tradespeople in all fields can manage and grow their business significantly.

Appropriate use of this intuitive software will put an end to all the time-consuming administrative tasks of running a business because it has been designed with tradespeople in mind.

Regardless of the size of your business or your income, as a trades professional you will benefit. Get the right training and learn how to use it appropriately to start doing business better. 

1. Easy to use

Bricks+Agent has been designed with time-poor tradies in mind. Its intuitive and user-friendly dashboards makes it easy, even a beginner starting out in the industry can manage their work. Add jobs, quote and apply for jobs, set appointments with a built in tradie scheduler and calendar, and give your customers apiece of mind with the built in GPS tradie tracker. 

 

2.Transparency

By using Bricks+Agent property maintenance software, you can use geo-location features to get be found on maps to give customers assurance when completing a job. Push new job posts and work orders to your current location to connect you to new and repeat customers in the area.

Unlike with manual tracking for jobs, with Bricks+Agent you can forget the hassle of disputes such as how long the job took to complete, being paid in a timely manner. It also helps you know how your handyman business is performing using the mobile dashboard and having access to important information anytime, anywhere.

 

3. Easy access to legitimate jobs

Property maintenance software is perfect for both large and small businesses to help you reach customers fast and easy. With  Bricks+Agent you can access jobs from both commercial and residential properties and have the freedom to choose any desired job without paying a percentage of your earning as commission or per invoice fee.

 

4. Real-time notifications and alerts

Create custom alerts for the categories relating to your services. You can build custom notifications sent to your clients 1 hour or 24 hours before the date of appointment that you has been agreed on.

Bricks+Agent understands tradies don't sit behind desk which is why the app sends push notifications, direct to your phone for new jobs in your location. You will also be notified for any quote, chat or video calls with potential clients.

As your business grows, simply add employees and sub-contractor to your account and quickly assign jobs to be completed by your team.

 

5. Higher quality jobs

Tired of bidding the lowest price to secure a job? By working with property management agencies you reduce 'bartering' behaviour from the process to land higher paying jobs. 

Further, when you deal with clients manually, problems like delayed payments become harder to chase. With Bricks+Agent you can automate the process and keep managing with ease.

In his early 20s, Perth local Rafael Niesten, won a scholarship to study in Canada, with that came the opportunity to volunteer at a local radio station. That spawned his entrepreneurial streak, returning to Perth in 2001 he set up community radio Groove FM. More by luck than design, they became successful, too successful as they took a significant chunk of the Perth Market. This sent up the red flag with his commercial competitors who saw to it that he came before the Australian Broadcasting Authority and on technicalities such as the number of volunteers he was forced to move on. He received the citizen of the year award for Western Australia (youth) and was a finalist in the Australian of the year awards (Youth). Falling on his sword he turned to running small and large scale events, all the while buying, renovating and selling properties. Buying and selling land and renovated houses provided a grounding in the property industry. He founded a cloud based medical grade voice recognition company, followed by co founding the first true cloud application for private practice in the health sector. He successfully exited these ventures at the end of 2016 and began building Bricks+Agent.
