Use automated texts

 sent after a new job is created and when you’re on your way to a customer’s home to share information about safety protocols. Let your customers know what to expect that’s out of the norm (such as not to expect a handshake or a request to stay six feet away from your technician).

Many pros are moving to 

virtual estimates

 to reduce time spent in customer’s houses. You can 

create and send estimates via text or email

 and stay on the phone or video conference while your customer looks it over.

If you’re moving to no-contact service calls, you can collect payments through 

automated invoices

.

Postcards are a memorable way to get in touch with your customers. 

Housecall Pro users can automatically send postcards

 to their users through the platform. We’ve designed a number of postcards you can choose from related to the crisis to send a timely and relevant message. Postcards are half-price through April, 2020.
