Description

CMA is an all-in-one client management platform designed to help tradespeople manage their businesses more efficiently and reduce time spent on administration. The software brings together client management, professional quoting, invoicing, scheduling, messaging, document sharing, and payment collection into one centralized dashboard. CMA is built specifically for trades such as plumbing, electrical work, carpentry, landscaping, roofing, painting, and general contracting. The platform allows users to quickly create branded, itemized quotes, attach photos, and send them directly to clients for approval. Once accepted, quotes can be converted into invoices with online payment options to simplify billing and improve cash flow. CMA also includes appointment scheduling tools that let clients book available slots while helping businesses avoid double-booking and missed appointments. The client portal gives customers a professional self-service experience where they can access documents, quotes, invoices, and communications in one place. Additional features such as client messaging, broadcast emails, task checklists, and media portfolio management help tradespeople stay organized and improve customer communication. CMA integrates with Xero to automate invoice syncing and simplify accounting workflows for business owners and accountants. The software is designed for ease of use, allowing tradespeople to get set up quickly without technical expertise. CMA helps small trade businesses improve organization, present a more professional image, and spend more time focusing on their work instead of paperwork.

Description

SoloDesks is a comprehensive job management solution designed specifically for solo tradespeople, such as plumbers, electricians, painters, landscapers, and handymen, allowing them to handle quoting, invoicing, and job scheduling without the complexity of managing a team. You can create detailed itemized quotes directly from your phone while still on-site, and send them as personalized PDFs to your clients. Once the client accepts the quote through a secure link, it seamlessly converts into an invoice with just one tap, maintaining the same details and pricing without any need for re-entering information. To help manage overdue payments, Overdue Autopilot sends automated reminders to clients at intervals of 7, 14, and 21 days, ensuring that the communication appears to come from your business, with replies directed to you, and stopping automatically once payment is confirmed. Each job is organized on a calendar that includes the client’s address, enabling efficient route planning, and all financial aspects like VAT and CIS are accurately managed in pounds. There’s a free plan available that includes 10 quotes, 10 invoices, and 10 emailed PDFs each month, with unlimited clients and jobs, while the Pro plan is affordably priced at 12 GBP per month without any per-user fees, making it an ideal choice for independent professionals. Overall, SoloDesks empowers individual tradespeople to streamline their business operations and improve their cash flow with minimal effort.

Pricing Details

£12.00/month
Two plans, both in GBP.

Free, £0 a month: 10 quotes, 10 invoices and 10 emailed PDFs a month,
plus 3 one-tap client accept-links. Unlimited clients and jobs, and your
own logo on every PDF. No card required.

Pro, £12 a month: unlimited quotes, invoices, emails and accept-links.
Overdue Autopilot chases unpaid invoices for you at 7, 14 and 21 days
and stops the moment you are paid. Pay-now links on invoices, premium
PDF styles, your brand colour, and no SoloDesks credit line on your
paperwork.

The £12 is flat rather than per user, because SoloDesks is built for one
person working alone. Billed monthly, cancel anytime, and nothing is
deleted if you downgrade.
