Putting the right pricing information in front of your salespeople not only guarantees profit, but can help your team maximize it. With Commusoft’s comprehensive budgeting tools, any cost you will incur for a job is detailed and logged against the proposal. Combined with your proposed prices, you’ll see expected profit and margins, making it easy to review and optimize on the fly without need for a calculator.
Labor has a large impact on the final cost of a job and it’s often where trades businesses make their most money. Commusoft helps you set pre-configured labor costs to guarantee that salespeople are always charging the correct amount for labor. For more control, labor rates can be customized across the different proposals, options, add-ons, and parts you offer. Plus, you can vary labor rates by day and time, such as premiums for weekends, early mornings, or late evenings.
Commusoft empowers sales teams to pull in any required parts and their vendor pricing into proposals, with total control over markup, discounts, and profit. For standard installations and services, exact parts can be assigned in the template. Once the proposal is created, all your salespeople need to do is select which vendor to order from, ensuring they can quickly make the best financial decision without significant effort.
Price reductions, coupons, and freebies are an important part of a sales teams’ toolkit. However, poorly tracked or ad hoc discounts can hurt your bottom line. Armed with the current costs and expected profit, salespeople can effectively judge if a discount is suitable and how much. This flexibility enables sales teams to boost conversion rates, without sacrificing too much profit. In addition, Commusoft tracks any markdowns, so you will always know where your team provided a discount.
Sales budgeting software is a digital tool that helps sales teams understand the impact of labor rates, parts prices, discounts, and margins on company revenue.
With Commusoft Sales, salespeople can set standard pricing and profit margins, which means they can build proposals faster, and guarantee every job is profitable. Or, they have the freedom to customize pricing and offerings on specific opportunities. What’s more, they can examine and understand which jobs are most cost-effective, and adjust margins accordingly. After all, you’re in the business of making money!
