I run the paperwork side of your trade business. Invoicing, quotes, chasing the money you are owed, your emails, your books, and getting you set up to look the part. You stay on the tools. I handle the rest.
You pick what is eating your time. I take it off your plate and handle it on my own hours, so nothing lands back on you at the end of a long day.
Your invoices and quotes go out properly and on time, every time. No more jobs sitting in the "I will do it tomorrow" pile. Priced right, sent fast, and followed up if they go quiet.
The awkward part, done for you. I follow up every overdue invoice, politely first and firmer if I have to, until the money is in your account. You never have to have that conversation.
I log into your email, reply to customers in your voice, book jobs into your calendar and chase up leads. You stop losing work just because you were too flat out to reply.
Every receipt and expense sorted and entered as you go, ready to hand straight to your accountant at tax time. No shoebox, no panic in July.
Logo, business cards, socials and your Google listing, all done so you look like a proper business from day one. Perfect if you are just going out on your own.
Not ready for ongoing help? Grab a single job. A logo, a flyer, your Google page set up, a batch of invoices caught up. Flat price, done fast.
No apps to learn, no faffing about. You send me the job, I do it, it is handled.
A quick text or email. "Finished the job at 12 Smith St, two grand." That is all I need.
I make the invoice, send it, log it, and chase it if it is late. Same with your emails, quotes and books.
The money comes in, your paperwork stays tidy, and you never opened a laptop. You were on the tools the whole time.
I am the one behind Behind The Tools. For the last year I have run the whole office side of a painting business. Not just the numbers, all of it. The quotes, the invoices, chasing the money that never came in on time, answering customer emails, sorting the receipts for tax, building the brand, running the socials, setting up the Google page. If it kept the business running and it was not holding a brush, I was the one doing it.
So when I say I get it, I really do. I know you do not want to sit down at nine at night to do paperwork after a full day on site. I know quotes sit in the too hard pile and invoices go out late and the money comes in later still. That is exactly the stuff I take off your hands.
I keep it simple, I keep it human, and I actually care about your business getting paid and looking good. You do what you are brilliant at. I will look after the rest.
"I run everything behind the tools, so you can just work."
