A picture is worth a thousand words. Yardbook now gives you the ability to add before and after photos right from your phone. Those photos will be linked directly to the customer’s invoice page, so they can have a clear visual of the improvements you’ve made to their property. Another example of the world-class experience Yardbook provides for your customers.
Yardbook gives you many ways to handle pricing. For example, you can use the default price defined in your product catalog, or set up price per cut, or create property-based pricing.

Yardbook provides many ways for you to get paid sooner!
If you have enabled credit card processing, your customers can view their invoices online and make payments. You can also ask your customers directly for their credit card information, and store it on file for them. However, for security reasons, customers may prefer to add their credit card information themselves. Yardbook gives them the ability to do this, directly from their invoice page.
