Learn how online quote sheet tools like AK DASH can save time, reduce errors, and boost your asphalt business's professionalism.
Running an asphalt business means juggling countless details, so it’s easy to drop the ball here and there. But if that’s happening more often than not, you’re in danger of going into the “sloppy zone” reserved for the black-top cowboys. And if that lack of precision leaks into your quote sheets, boy, you’re about to lose some business.
The bottom line is that getting your quote sheets right is crucial. Your quote sheet is more than just numbers on a page — it’s your promise of quality, your first impression, and your ticket to winning jobs. But if you're still stuck in the old-school ways of doing quotes by hand, in Word, or Google Docs, you might be making things harder than they need to be.
These traditional methods can slow you down, encourage sloppy errors, and they straight up just don’t look as professional. Learn how switching to online tools for your quote sheets can positively impact your business in this article.
The Drawbacks of Traditional Methods for Quote Sheets
Running an asphalt business is no easy feat. With so much to manage, the last thing you need is an unreliable process. To this day, a lot of contractors still use old methods like manual quote sheets, Word documents, or Google Docs.
While these methods get the job done, they also come with problems that could cost you time, money, and, worst of all, clients. Let’s break down the biggest downsides of these traditional methods:
Manual Quote Sheets
Creating quotes by hand might seem easy enough, but in reality, it can be a bomb waiting to explode. Here’s why:
Using Word or Google Docs
Switching to Word or Google Docs might seem better than doing it by hand, but it’s not much of an improvement. These tools aren't made for contractors, and here’s why:
The Professionalism Gap
Clients expect clear, accurate, and well-presented quotes, and oftentimes,using traditional methods can make your business look less professional. Handwritten notes or clunky documents simply don’t cut it in this highly competitive market.
