Invoice from the van — get paid without going home first
Every day between finishing a job and sending the invoice is a day the customer does not think about paying you. ProQuoter lets you raise the invoice from the job, send it from the driveway and get paid faster — without needing to go home first.
Why delayed invoices slow your cash flow
Most tradesmen know what they are owed but cannot tell you exactly what is outstanding, when each invoice was sent or what has gone quiet. That is a cash flow problem — not a business size problem.
Invoices sent the same day as the job get paid significantly faster than ones sent a week later. The customer is satisfied, the work is fresh and you have not given them any reason to forget.
- Invoices raised a week after the job from memory instead of notes
- Extras agreed on-site not on the final invoice
- Outstanding payments not chased because tracking was too hard
- Having to wait until home to raise anything
