Scale Your Service Business to $5 Million with Jobber

In this episode, I sit down with Marlena from G&M Companies to talk about how she’s using Jobber to run a $5.5M excavation, residential, commercial, snow, and boulder business — and where it works really well (and where it doesn’t).

We get into:

• How she protects margins with deposits and final payments

• How quotes flow straight into jobs and invoices

• Building simple checklists so sales → ops handoffs don’t break

• Tracking time, payroll, and job costs

• Managing 100+ snow visits without nonstop phone calls

• The real pros and cons of Jobber as you grow

• Why progress billing gets tricky in commercial dirt work

If you’re in land clearing, excavation, snow, tree work, or residential services, this is a practical systems conversation you’ll want to hear.
