The payback check

Does Next Truck pay for itself on your shop?

Two numbers from your own software show what your unsold estimates add up to, and how few of them have to come back to cover the investment. It doesn't predict how many will. The free 14-day sweep is how you find that out.

Your numbers

Start with the sample shop, then make it yours.

The sample is a shop with 60 unsold estimates and a $6,000 average quote. Move the sliders or type over them. Nothing you enter leaves your browser.

Quotes you sent that were never approved. Your software filters this in a minute.
Furnaces, heat pumps, ACs, repairs. A rough middle is fine.

What you pay to have after-hours calls answered. Next Truck takes that over, so it comes off the cost.

Six months, because that's how long Canada's anti-spam law lets a business text about an estimate request. How that works, with the source.

Break-even, first 90 days

2 booked jobs

Two jobs at your average quote cover the first 90 days. How many of your estimates come back, nobody can tell you yet.

Under 40 unsold estimates the list is too thin for a sweep, and Dan will say so out loud rather than run a thin one. The guarantee starts at 40.

Sitting in your software 60 quotes at $6,000. Most won't buy. The sweep exists to find the ones that will.

$360,000

The investment, first 90 days $2,499 to set up, then three months at $1,199. Plus HST. Jobs count at invoice value, so this is revenue to cover, not profit.

$6,096

The share you'd need, not the share we expect About 3 in 100 of the quotes that already said maybe.

2 of 60

Every month after $1,199 a month. One job at $6,000 covers about five months of it.

1 job

Pays for itself in 90 days, or we keep working free. If the jobs Next Truck booked in your first 90 days don't add up, at your own invoice values, to what you've paid so far, we keep running it at no charge until they do, for up to three extra months. It needs 40 or more unsold estimates, jobs tagged in your software, and an office that answers each reply within one business day. The full conditions

What this page can't tell you: how many of those estimates come back. Nobody can before the texts go out. That's what the free 14 days are for, on your shop, with your office booking the replies.

Where the numbers come from

Four fixed numbers. The rest are yours.

$2,499 and $1,199

The investment, as it reads on the pricing page. Nothing is paid during the free 14 days. If you carry on after the day-14 review, half the setup to start and half when you sign off, then month to month with 30 days' notice and no minimum term. Plus HST. The pricing page

90 days

The guarantee window. Setup plus three months comes to $6,096, so that's the line the booked jobs have to clear. Jobs count at your own invoice values, tagged in your software.

40 estimates

The floor. Under 40 unsold estimates in six months, the list is too thin to be worth your time, and Dan turns the sweep down rather than run a thin one.

Six months

How long Canada's anti-spam law lets a business text about an estimate request. A paid customer can be texted for two years from the job. The government's own page

Find out for real.
