Using Avro: Let Crews Submit Proposals from the Field

Nobody knows a property like the crew standing on it. They see the overgrown hedge, the moss on the roof, the bed that needs mulch. In most companies that knowledge dies in the truck. In Avro, it becomes a proposal before the crew leaves the driveway.

Set up your catalog first

Field proposals work because pricing is decided ahead of time. Build your catalog items — bush trimming, edging, cleanups — with payment options (per service, per month, prepay) and prices. Crews pick from the catalog; they don't invent numbers on the spot.

Give crews the permission

In your company's group settings, employees need the proposal permissions to draft and send. You control whether proposals go straight to the customer or route through the office for review first — most companies start with review-first and loosen it once trust builds.

The flow on site

The tech opens the job, adds a proposal, picks the catalog items and options, and sends. The customer gets a clean email with the options laid out and approves online — no printing, no phone tag. Accepted work lands on the schedule with tasks and pricing already attached, and it routes like any other stop.

Pay a spiff, watch it compound

Companies that pay crews a percentage of accepted field proposals typically see proposal volume triple in the first month. It's the cheapest sales team you'll ever hire — they're already on the property.
