Can Full Loop help me stop wasting time on bad estimates?+
Yes. Yinez pre-qualifies every lead before you drive to give an estimate. She gathers project scope, timeline, budget expectations, and surface condition information. Leads that do not meet your minimum project size or are clearly only price-shopping are handled with automated responses. Most painting companies report eliminating 30 to 50% of unproductive estimate visits within the first month.
How does scheduling handle multi-day painting projects?+
Full Loop blocks multi-day windows based on project scope, managing prep days, prime days, and paint days as a single project timeline. The system accounts for dry times between coats, crew availability, and weather conditions for exterior work. You can see your full production capacity at a glance and know exactly when you have openings for new projects.
