More than 80% of customers who seek home services research companies online before calling, according to Search Engine Journal.

Customers are generally willing to leave positive reviews for your business, but you have to remember to ask and also make the process clear and convenient.

GoSite makes customer reviews a cinch by sending an email, text, or message to your customers with a link to write and post their review on Google or Facebook instantly. One click sends review requests to your customers right after you complete an electrical service request or as soon as they pay their invoice. 

“There is currently a severe, nation-wide shortage of professionals in the skilled trades—particularly electricians… According to the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA), 7,000 new electricians join the workforce each year, but 10,000 retire from it, leaving contracting firms and their customers struggling to manage a net deficit of skilled labor.”

Anytime there is a major shortage of trade experts, local owner-operators struggle to keep up with customer needs and contractor bids. Your business needs simple tools to help you accomplish many tedious tasks in just a couple of clicks.

GoSite is the best app for electricians because it was built with home services operators in mind. You can share a link for clients to book appointments, who then choose from a list of service calls. GoSite makes it easy for you to quickly and professionally book both simple and complex services, from reviewing installation diagrams for builders to overhauling entire electrical control systems.

More than 4,000 electrical injuries occur every year, and nearly half of them happen to homeowners and their families.

Many people attempt their own electrical work simply because they can’t get a hold of a local expert to answer their questions or respond to emergencies. Whether carelessly cutting a live cable or attempting to thread wire through a conduit, it’s important for you to be available to homeowners and contractors who need your help to stay safe. But that can be challenging if you’re having to take messages and calls from multiple social channels and instant messengers all at once.

GoSite brings all your messaging tools - social media, Google, text, web chat, and more - together in one easy-to-use dashboard, so you can respond to customers from any device while in the office or on the go.

Easy payments make for faster payments, especially for home service small business owners.

Homeowners and contractors are increasingly using contactless methods to pay their bills and make purchases, and your electrician business can benefit from offering this convenient payment option.

GoSite's QuickBooks integration allows you to invoice clients and collect payments with just one click. Client payment options include:

• Single card payments
• Mobile pay
• Recurring bank transfers
• In-person payments

But that’s not all! GoSite payments and invoicing let you collect partial payments on the day of booking and automatically send out review requests after the customer pays in full. It’s a full suite business management app to streamline your business, save time, and boost cash flow.
