How to grow your payments app with tree surgeons
By SendPay Business · · 2 min read
Tree surgeons prune, fell and remove trees and stumps for homeowners, farms, schools and landlords. They usually quote on site, and many customers want to pay as soon as the work is finished and the site is cleared. A payments app that sends a link with the quote and takes payment on the day can win these firms, and every customer who pays sees your app.
Talk to tree surgeons
Ask local tree surgeons:
- How do customers pay you today?
- Do you take deposits for big jobs?
- Do you wait long to be paid after finishing?
- What would make getting paid easier?
Send the quote with a link
A payment link sent with the quote lets the customer pay a deposit and book the job in one step.
Get paid before leaving the site
A QR code or link once the site is cleared means payment before the crew drives off.
Grow through gardeners and landlords
Tree surgeons work with gardeners, landscapers and landlords. One firm on your app can bring others to it.
