Independent desk · Not a Jobber store

01 / The visor book

The daybook a two-truck shop still keeps on the visor

Shop Daybook is a notebook-replacement desk for lawn and cleaning shops that still lose jobs between the work and the invoice. Type a week. See a year of unbilled work. Jobber Core is the cheaper fix when that number is larger than the software.

Open daybook clipped to a truck visor, red pencil in the gutter, two work trucks in the lot.

02 / Leak

Yearly unbilled, from the numbers you type

This is arithmetic, not a survey. We do not invent “shops lose 12%.” The formula is:

leak = jobs per week × weeks × ticket × (unbilled % ÷ 100)

Jobber Core no-commitment list is $49 × 12 = $588 per year (fetched 18 Aug 2026 from getjobber.com/pricing). Annual Core was shown as $21/mo promo, then $29/mo. Extra users $29/mo. Verify current pricing on Jobber’s site.

Example figures you can edit. Not an industry average.

03 / Start with lawn and cleaning

Two-truck shops, not a software listicle

Lawn

Routing, recurring mows, invoice after the job

A visor book for landscape crews that still close the day on paper. Jobber markets routing and job tracking for lawn shops; verify on their site.

Lawn daybook

Cleaning

Stops on the page, invoices in the same book

Residential and commercial cleaners who lose a house between the walkthrough and the send. Same calculator, same Core cost check.

Cleaning daybook

Forgot to invoice

The mow happened. The invoice didn’t.

Extra cuts, recurring stops, and season changes that never became a ticket. Calculator on the page. No invented shop average.

Forgot-to-invoice lawn

The visor book

The route still lives on the visor

A paper route book is a good desk until a page tears out. Type a week from that book.

Two-truck math

Is software cheaper than the leak?

Your leak year next to Jobber Core’s $588 list year. If the hole is smaller, stay on paper.

04 / Honesty

Jobber is not every shop

HVAC memberships and high-ticket proposals often belong on Housecall Pro. Shops at about 30 techs often look at ServiceTitan. We do not have those links wired, and we do not score products.
