Our Thoughtful Systems technical staff is always ready to listen and work with pest control clients to customize the Service Genius software to their needs. When Innovative Pest Control in North Carolina requested a more efficient way to track their recurring clients, our Thoughtful Systems programming team worked closely with them to create a “Job Confirmation Calendar,” available right on their scheduling screen. All customers who are due for a job for the present month are visible on the right side of the scheduling screen. Those jobs that still need a confirmation are highlighted in red, so you simply click the customer’s name and call them with a reminder or a confirmation right from the screen.
