Software we’ve built, in use every day

Most small businesses glue five subscriptions together and still copy things by hand. We write the tool instead. Everything on this page is ours, built line by line, and it’s running right now.

01
CRM

Every lead answered, every client in the loop

The tools that catch a lead the moment it comes in, keep the job moving, and show the client exactly what their marketing is doing.

Lead inbox

One inbox for every lead

Website forms, calls, texts, email and Google reviews all land in one place, and nothing sits unanswered. Shown with a sample lawn company.

  • Missed-call text-back within seconds, day or night
  • Calls and texts from the browser, iPhone or iPad, from the business number
  • A sales pipeline from new lead to won, with the next step on every card
  • Reminders that keep coming back until the job is done
  • Review requests by text or email, with follow-ups
  • A built-in assistant you can ask: who’s waiting on a callback?

Built and run by Salt Services for our clients.

Client portal

A login for every client

Where every client logs in to see what their marketing is doing and pay for it, without emailing anyone for a report. Shown with a sample roofing company.

  • Sign in with a code to your phone or email, no password to forget
  • Every lead from the website in one list, with the message they sent
  • Visitors, top pages and Google search performance, month by month
  • The SEO roadmap and monthly reports, so you can see what was done
  • Plans, invoices and the signed agreement, with a card on file

Every Salt Services client gets a login.

On the phone

Built for the truck, not the desk

All of it works on an iPhone or iPad, so the owner can run the day from a job site.

  • Reply by text, email or note, or start a call, from one bar
  • Keep a call going while you look something up
  • Clients check their own leads and numbers from their phone

Estimating

Quote the job in the driveway

Built first for a Sevier County landscaping company and now running a fence company too. The crew draws the job, the price book does the math, and the customer approves on their phone.

Drawing & pricing

Draw it once, price it automatically

Sketch the yard on a tablet and every patio, bed, plant and wall turns into a priced line on the estimate. The customer gets a clean copy with the drawing on top. Hover the estimate to scroll it.

  • Sketch the yard, patio or fence line and drop gates and plants right on the plan
  • Price from your own price book, with optional add-ons the customer can tick
  • Customer reviews, signs and pays the deposit online
  • Payment schedules, bills, late fees and account credit handled for you
  • Pick up where you left off; it reopens the exact customer and estimate
  • One tap to ask for a review when the job is finished

In use by a landscaping crew and a fence crew in East Tennessee.

Lifestyle

Software for home, not just work

The same care, pointed at the kitchen table. A family calendar we built for our own household, shown here with a sample family.

Family calendar

One calendar the whole house shares

Everybody’s plans in one place, color-coded by person, on every phone. Shown with a sample family.

  • One shared month, week and agenda view for the whole family
  • Each person gets a color, so you can tell whose night it is at a glance
  • A note for the day and sticky notes for the things that aren’t events
  • Works on the computer and the phone

Built for our own household and headed to the App Store.

Assistant & lists

Ask for it in plain words

Type what you need in plain words. The assistant checks the calendar and the lists and offers to do it, and nothing changes until you tap Do it.

  • A shared grocery list anyone in the house can add to
  • “Add what we need for taco night” checks what’s already on the list
  • Every change waits for a yes before it happens

Mileage

Mileage that adds itself up

Start a trip, save the spots you go often, and the log fills itself in by day, with the odometer and the deduction estimate kept for tax time.

  • Trips grouped by day with the route and the reason
  • Odometer start and end on every trip, per vehicle
  • Business, charity and personal miles kept apart, with a running deduction

Plus smaller tools built into client websites

Not every problem needs a whole app. A few one-job tools we’ve built:

  • Online equipment rental booking

    Pick the machine, pick the days, book it. Check-in reminders go out by text automatically.

  • Penny tread check & tire size reader

    A tire shop’s visitors check their own tread and read their sidewall size before they call.

  • 3D finish picker

    Spin a wheel in 3D and try powder-coat colors before you ever bring it in.
