The problem

The jobs are there. The admin kills the margin.

In construction and trades, the difference between a good year and a great year is rarely about finding more work. It's about converting the quotes you're already sending and getting paid faster for the jobs you've already done.

Quotes go cold because follow-up never happens
You send a quote, intend to follow up, then a job runs long and it slips. Weeks later the customer has gone with someone else — not because your price was wrong, but because you didn't follow up. This is pure, preventable revenue loss.
~40% of quotes unanswered
Scheduling is manual chaos
Jobs booked in a diary, subcontractors confirmed by call, customers notified by text — each coordination step manual, each a chance for a miscommunication or double-booking on the day. Rescheduling costs time and damages trust.
3–4h/week on scheduling
Invoices sit unpaid and chasing is awkward
You've done the work, raised the invoice, and then the chasing starts. Calling customers about money is uncomfortable, time-consuming, and entirely avoidable with a structured, automated payment follow-up system.
20% of invoices overdue avg.
Reviews don't happen without prompting
Happy customers rarely leave reviews unprompted. Your new business pipeline depends on Google and Checkatrade reviews, but you never find the right moment to ask — especially when you're already on the next job.
3× revenue impact of reviews
Subcontractor coordination is a time sink
Briefing subs, confirming start times, sending site addresses and access details — all done by call or text, all repeated for every job. One missed message and a sub doesn't show. That's a day lost on site.
2–3h/week per active sub
Customers don't know what's happening
Client wants to know when you're starting, what stage the job is at, when you'll be back. Without proactive updates, they call or text to check — pulling you off the tools to manage expectations that automation could handle.
~1h/day on client calls
Repeat work and referrals aren't being captured
A satisfied customer is your best source of new business. But if you're not in touch after job completion — no thank-you, no annual reminder, no referral ask — that relationship goes cold and the work goes to whoever calls first next time.
~60% of repeat work lost
How it works

Six stages from consultation to automation.

We audit where your jobs and revenue are slipping, design the automation architecture, and deploy it — working alongside your existing job management tools.

01
Discovery — Free 30-Min Call

We learn your trade, job volumes, current tools, and where quotes, revenue, and time are leaking. No commitment, no pitch deck.

Zero cost, full value
02
Audit — Deep Operational Map

We trace every job from enquiry to payment — every manual step, every tool handoff, every point where admin eats into your time and margin. We quantify it.

Clarity before commitment
03
Design — Automation Blueprint

Quote follow-up sequences, booking confirmations, invoice chasing, review requests — all designed and mapped before we build. You see exactly what you're getting.

No surprises

      Job finished, customer happy, no review request sent — opportunity missed
      Customer calls at 9am asking when you're arriving — you're already on site
      Previous customer calls a year later — you're not first in mind, someone else gets the job

      Why Ignyss

      Built for tradespeople who are tired of losing work to the office.

      "

      The best tradespeople don't lose work because their skills aren't good enough. They lose it because their follow-up isn't fast enough. Automation closes that gap.

      Core principle · Ignyss Trades
      "

      A quote that goes cold isn't a lost job — it's a won job that slipped. Forty per cent of unanswered quotes would have converted with a single automated follow-up at day three.

      Quote automation · Ignyss
      "

      Reviews are the currency of the trades industry. Three times as many reviews with automation isn't a small improvement — it's the difference between a quiet January and a full diary.
