The problem

Right now, your business runs on five apps and a Sunday evening.

Paper diaries, WhatsApp, a pricing spreadsheet, an accounting package and whatever's in your head. It works — until the workload grows and the cracks start costing you money.

Without MarginMate

Fragmented & manual

  • Paper diaries and sticky notes for scheduling
  • WhatsApp threads standing in for a customer record
  • A spreadsheet doing the pricing your gut should trust
  • VAT sums done manually, late, and under pressure
  • No real idea which jobs actually made money
With MarginMate

Business management, without the paperwork

  • One schedule, one customer record, on your phone
  • Quotes out in minutes with QuoteMate, priced consistently
  • Revenue, profit and VAT visible in real time
  • Jobs mapped so you plan routes, not just diaries
  • Your margin, on every job, every month — no guessing
How it works

Built around the real lifecycle of a job.

Every stage is connected — from the first enquiry to the money landing in your account — so nothing gets re-typed and nothing gets lost.

01

Enquiry & client profile

Capture the lead and build a permanent client record.

02

QuoteMate

Produce a clear, professional quote in minutes.

03

Job scheduled

Accepted quotes become scheduled, mapped jobs.

04

Work completed

Track progress and notes through to sign-off.

05

Invoice raised

Generate the invoice straight from the job.

06

Profit & VAT tracked

Margin and VAT update automatically, in real time.

Features

Everything a trades business needs. Nothing it doesn't.

Every feature exists to solve a genuine problem experienced on real jobs — not to pad out a features page.

Clients/clients

One record per client — contact details, job history, quotes, notes and communication, all in one place.

QuoteMate/quotes

Standardised, consistent quotes that go out faster and convert better — with far fewer pricing errors.

Jobs/jobs

Schedule, assign, monitor and close out jobs from enquiry to completion — no more paper diary.

Reports/reports

Revenue, outstanding invoices and profit trends, updated continuously — not just at year-end.

VAT reporting/vat

VAT organised and summarised automatically, cutting one of the most time-consuming jobs on your list.

Calendar/calendar

See every job on one shared calendar, so nothing gets double-booked and nothing slips.

Jobs map & clients

Every job. Every client.
One place.

Plan your day with live job locations, keep every client organised and access invoices instantly — all from one workspace.

  • Live jobs mapSee all your jobs at a glance and plan your routes efficiently.

Who it's for

Built for the businesses enterprise software forgets.

Why MarginMate

Not accounting software. Not a CRM. Your business, in your pocket.

Complete visibility

Financial performance available in real time, so decisions are based on numbers, not instinct.

Operational focus

Quotes, jobs, mapping and finance in one flow — not five disconnected subscriptions.

Scalability

Right for a sole trader today, and built to grow with you as your team does.

Stay organised, stay in control

One workspace for jobs, clients and invoices — so nothing falls through the cracks.
