Top 5 ways to get to your buyers with Halloween Specials

Retailers are always looking for ways to increase their online visibility and boost sales. Halloween is coming and buyers are expecting to receive special offers and discounts.

So what are the best ways for the company to reach out to its potential audience with its Halloween offer? In this article, we will review different approaches to reaching out to your customers.

  1. In-store banners. This is an old-fashioned but yet effective way to attract visitors’ attention. Flyers and banners have been doing their job for years long before mobile technologies have come into place. The younger gen might not even notice them as they most likely will be staring at their phone – that’s where you need to grab them! Moving on to the next points will tell you more.
  2. Social media channels. Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter are too popular to leave them out. Make sure you are posting information about your special offers and discounts to these channels with popular hashtags.
  3. Push notifications sent directly from your app. Don’t have one? Hurry to order a custom mobile app developed specifically for your company. And hey, Snappii is not an exception. We will give you a 15% discount on the custom app development fee by the end of October 2021. Use our NOTRICKS coupon by the end of October 2021. Contact us with your requirements here.
  4. Email campaigns are another old-fashioned way to tell your customers you are giving away Halloween specials. However, the open rates of the email campaigns are not so great as that of Push Notifications. Still, it is nice to receive an email with an appealing offer.
  5. Last but not least is online coupon websites. Your potential buyers are browsing such websites specifically to find the deal they need. Top sites will post your offers at no cost. WeThrift.com, RetailMeNot, Coupon Great, and others have easy to browse and add coupons.

Only 5 days are left till Halloween. Make sure your offer gets noticed by the right audience.

How customers select a construction company today

The construction industry has been one of the fastest-growing on the market. Taking that into account, construction businesses are constantly fighting for new customers more than any other industry. The competition is huge and businesses need to provide a perfect first impression to be chosen. Practice shows that the customers select a construction company to work with based on several factors:

– a decent website or a mobile app

– portfolio with completed objects

– speed and accuracy of the project estimation

– customer satisfaction

While having a website or a mobile app has long ago turned from “nice-to-have” to “must-have”, many companies lack the ability to provide timely job estimates to clients, thus losing opportunities to win more business. Let’s take a closer look at the top benefits your construction company will gain using a mobile app:

– generate professional estimates and invoices in minutes

– win more jobs

– get paid faster

– improve team collaboration

– analyze powerful daily reports from your team

Daily reports enable you to make quick decisions, ensure your projects are on schedule if your dates are slipping understand why. Did you know that an average construction employee spends up to 60 minutes a day filling out a paper daily report? That process will certainly not help you quickly understand if any project is off the schedule. Paper reports are hard to read, they can get lost, it takes time to deliver them to the office. After a long hard day at work that’s the last thing you want to do.

Snappii has been helping construction companies improve their workflows for over 10 years now. Recently, we have helped a Construction Company from Austin, TX:

“We wanted to develop a mobile app to help track construction progress on our jobs, and purchase orders. Our goals were to increase cost efficiency and productivity tracking.

Snappii had good flexibility, and customization when it came to app production and meeting our overall needs.

The app they created for us also helped reduce the amount of paper consumption throughout the company and allows us to maintain real live data for our management team.

Since Snappii has joined the project, the client’s purchase order and daily log activity from end-users have increased significantly. The team has addressed issues immediately because of their seamless communication skills. So far, they have met all of the project’s deadlines and goals.”

How come sorting out files and photos is no longer a tiresome process?

Many-many times we have been in a situation when at some point our iPhone gallery is full and the easiest thing to do is stuff all the photos, screenshots, and documents into the Cloud drive. This will help for a while until we have to run in circles and repeat this again.

Just think how much time you will spend trying to find THAT photo from the dog show or THAT screenshot of the old family recipe. With the advent of mobile apps, people started looking to store and organize their personal documents and photos in such apps. However, there are not so many that can literally help you easily find what you have placed in there. Snappii has created its DocuMate Scanner app to make this process a breeze. The DocuMate Scanner app allows users to capture photos and documents right into the app, or upload them from the Gallery/Cloud drive. The app tags all photos and documents with keywords, you can optionally add yours to easier find them later when needed.

Another part of your life is dealing with bills, invoices, receipts, contracts, and other paper-based processes. Just think how easy that would be to snap a picture of the invoice and save it to the DocuMate Scanner app. When needed, simply type in a few letters that you remember, and the app will retrieve this invoice. You can add a signature via the app and share the signed document with others. Don’t rush to the office if you need to resend or sign important documents. Use the built-in scanner to scan the papers and then add your signature and even stamp! Once scanned and signed, simply share these docs with others via email or other means available on your device.

Speed up invoicing with the Job Estimates & Invoices app

Very often a customer requires estimation of the work to be done for the sake of comparing with other offers and as proof of the pricing and services provided. However, when it comes to invoicing the client, most companies start to retype the data from estimates in order to create the invoice out of it. Just imagine how much time would be saved if you could just convert the estimate to an invoice with a button click.

Snappii has updated its Job Estimates & Invoices app with a super useful feature of converting an estimate to an invoice with just one click. Simply select the estimate you would like to convert, and if there are no changes to it, generate an invoice with one touch. If there are changes to be made, quickly review and easily convert to invoice. Try this new feature with the updated Job Estimates & Invoices app. Download it from Apple here and from Google here. Or request a free demo of this app here.

Here’s what the customers are saying:

Makes it easy to look professional for clients

The form can be filled in without typing. Users just hit the mic, speak into it and the voice is translated into text. Also, the Construction Daily Log app captures weather conditions, locations, date and time, amount of labor performed, and other field-related information. Attach pictures to highlight progress or show problem areas. After filling out the form, it can be instantly generated into the PDF report. The report can be shared in various ways and safely stored in the app, this way users can access all the reports anytime.
