What Bookgraft does

Seven jobs your business has to do every day, done for you. Switch on the ones you want, in the order you want.

Bookgraft is in its first build. Your setup plan says which of these go live first for you.

Every call, text and web chat gets an answer straight away, in your business's name.

  • Answers calls, texts, WhatsApp and web chat.
  • Knows returning customers and what they had done last time.
  • Books, moves and cancels appointments in your real diary.
  • Passes anyone who asks to a person, with a summary.
  • Texts back anyone who hangs up, with a link to book.

Gets extra work approved

Your customer sees what was found and what it costs, and says yes by text.

  • Drafts the quote from your price list.
  • You check it before it goes.
  • Your customer approves line by line, and their answer is recorded.
  • Anything they put off is saved and followed up later.
Example

Keeps everyone posted

Nobody has to ring to ask what is happening.

  • Customers are told when their job is booked, started, delayed and finished.
  • You choose your alerts: every step, the key moments, or only what needs you.
  • A summary reaches your phone at the end of each day.
Example

Daily summary

Today: 9 jobs in, 8 out. £2,140 invoiced. 2 quotes waiting, worth £410. Tomorrow: 11 booked. 1 job stuck, waiting on a part.

Sends the invoice and gets it paid

The invoice goes out the moment the job is finished, with a link to pay.

  • Raised and numbered in your own accounts software, so nothing is typed twice.
  • Paid by link, with the money going straight to you.
  • Statements for account customers, and overdue invoices chased.
Example
Your car is ready. Invoice INV-0042 for £286.40. Pay here before you arrive. We are open until 5:30.Pay now

Brings customers back

The work you have already won, kept.

  • Every customer is asked how it went, and for a review.
  • Reminders go out when work is next due.
  • Work a customer put off is followed up at the right time, with the original photo.
