What recurring jobs can handle
Jobber documents recurring jobs for repeat visits and for businesses that invoice on a schedule. That is materially different from simply duplicating an old job every time.
Trades where this matters
Pool service, window cleaning, chimney maintenance, dryer-vent cleaning, pressure washing plans and other repeat-service businesses gain leverage when the next visit and billing cycle are predictable.
The bigger retention question
Recurring scheduling is only part of the value. Also compare reminders, customer communication, cards on file, service history and how easily a missed or rescheduled visit is handled.
