Snap the card
When the job's done, take a photo of the card. Jobpad reads the reg, the mobile number and the customer's yes or no to texts. Anything it can't read clearly shows in red, and nothing is sent until you confirm it.
You already know what the car needs. Jobpad makes sure the customer doesn't forget: five weeks after you write “pads 3mm, advised” on the card, they get a text from your garage. MOT reminders too.
Not launched yet. Waitlist garages get the first three months free, no card needed. Button not opening your email? Write to [email protected].
You spot the worn pads, tell the customer and write it on the card. They nod, drive off and forget, until the pads fail and they go wherever's nearest. The MOT is the same story: the DVSA's free reminder doesn't mention your garage.
One pads job covers it. A single job booked from a text pays for Jobpad for months.
When the job's done, take a photo of the card. Jobpad reads the reg, the mobile number and the customer's yes or no to texts. Anything it can't read clearly shows in red, and nothing is sent until you confirm it.
The MOT due date and the advisories from the car's last test come from the DVSA's MOT history, alongside anything you wrote on the card as advised.
From your garage's name, with your phone number to call. Every text has a link to stop further texts.
No setup fee and no contract.
No. Jobpad runs in the web browser on your phone. Add it to your home screen and it behaves like an app.
Anything it isn't sure of shows in red with its best guesses. You tap the right one or type it. Nothing goes out until you confirm.
Only once they're back in and you've asked them. UK law (PECR) only lets you text past customers about your services if they were offered a way to say no when they gave you their number. Old cards never asked, so Jobpad only texts customers who said yes on a new card.
From the DVSA's MOT history, a public government service.
Yes. Cards, customers and cars export to a spreadsheet at any time, and stay yours if you leave.
A few weeks after your first cards, well inside the three free months, so you can see whether cars come back before you pay anything.
Adam is building it now and will invite waitlist garages first. Joining costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
Adam, who runs Jobpad on his own in the UK. You'll be emailing him directly.
Tell Adam your garage name and roughly how many cars you see a week. He replies within two working days, and waitlist garages are invited before anyone else.
