01Pricing
249 CAD a month, per shop.
One version, and every shop gets all of it. No charge per person, and no quote that depends on how big your shop looks.
02What is included
All of it. There is nothing to upgrade to.
The whole product, written out. If something here does not work the way it reads, that is a fault and I want to hear about it.
Getting work in
- Mitchell estimates, by dropping the export folder in
- Supplements landing on the job they belong to, with the price changes listed
- Jobs added by hand when there is no estimate
- Your old system brought across from a spreadsheet
Running the shop
- Jobs, with your repair order numbers carried on from where they are now
- Stages named the way your shop names them
- Parts on the job, and one parts screen across every open job
- Your own vendor list
- Photos on the job, out as one PDF
- Estimate, work order, invoice and parts list, printed
The money
- What you made, by month and by who paid
- What you are owed, and how late it is
- What is still in the shop
- Payments recorded against the job
Things you only think about later
- Everyone in your shop, no extra charge
- Your records kept separate from every other shop
- Backed up every night, somewhere else
- Your name on it, not mine
03What it does not do
The list you should have had before you signed the last one.
Real gaps, written down before you find them. Some will close. Some are not what this is for. Either way, better now than later.
- 01
Estimates from anything but Mitchell
Audatex and CCC are not read yet. If you write in one of those, tell me first, because it decides whether this is any use to you.
- 02
Writing the estimate
You keep writing them in Mitchell. This is what happens afterwards.
- 03
Talking to QuickBooks
It tells you what you are owed. It does not post to your books yet.
- 04
Scheduling and a production board
No calendar, no booking, no bays. Jobs have stages and you move them.
- 05
Taking payment
You record that a payment arrived. No money moves through this.
- 06
Anything the customer logs into
No portal, no status texts. This is for the people in the shop.
04Getting set up
Setting it up is my job, not yours.
Under an hour if your data is tidy, most of a day if we are bringing years of history across. No charge either way.
First
Four questions: what your repair order number is now, who pays you and on what terms, what you call your stages, and whether history is coming across.
Then
Your shop is set up with your numbering carried on from where it is. That is the one thing that is hard to change later, so it is done first and checked with you.
If you are near Calgary
I come to the shop, set it up on your machines with your own export folder, and show whoever is going to use it. No charge, and nothing you have to sign for it.
05The commercial part
The questions people actually ask.
All of it is in the terms, which are in plain English and worth four minutes of your time.
- What if I want to stop?
- Thirty days notice, either way. Your records are kept for ninety days after, and you can ask for an export at any point.
- Can the price go up?
- Not without sixty days notice in writing, before it happens.
- How fast do I get an answer?
- Within two working days, usually the same day. One person answers, and it is the one who wrote it.
- Who else can see my shop?
- Nobody. Shops are kept apart in the database itself. I cannot look inside yours unless you let me, and that runs out.
06Next
Tell me what you write estimates in, and I will tell you if this is any use to you.
- 01
Within a day
I write back. One person, not a sequence.
- 02
Half an hour, when it suits you
A walkthrough on a screen share, or at the shop if you are near Calgary. Bring one of your own exports and we will import it while you watch.
- 03
Then 14 days
Your own shop, set up properly, with your repair order numbers carried on from where they are now. No card until you decide.
