The situation
Steve is a handyman doing a mix of repairs, installs, and odd jobs. The variety was great — but quoting was a mess.
Every job was different:
- small repairs
- furniture assembly
- minor plumbing or electrical
- general maintenance
He'd quote on the spot, forget to include things, and end up in awkward price conversations.
The pain
- Quotes were inconsistent
- Customers questioned pricing
- He'd undercharge to avoid conflict
- No professional documentation
"I'd just throw out a number and hope it was right."
The switch to QuoteOS
Steve set up a simple pricing library with:
- hourly rates
- common tasks
- materials markup
- call-out fees
Now he describes the job and sends a clean, itemised quote.
The transformation
- **Professional quotes** every time
- Fewer price objections
- Clear scope = fewer misunderstandings
- More confidence in pricing
The human outcome
"Customers take me more seriously now. The quote looks like I know what I'm doing."
