What the Logistics does
- Sends each customer an appointment reminder so fewer of them no-show
- Texts an "on the way" message with an arrival window before you get there
- Creates and keeps each job's work order current, synced with your scheduler when connected
- Captures job photos and documentation onto the job record
- Relays a customer's reschedule reply straight to you
Why it helps general contractor owners
The "are you coming?" calls evaporate when the customer already got the heads-up, and the job's paperwork and photos are on the record without an end-of-day scramble — so the manager is running the work, not narrating it.
