The No. 1 price generating software company helps electricians solve more complex problems with new menus

The New Flat Rate, the No. 1 price generating software for home service contractors, is taking its software to the next level by expanding its electrical module. With the addition of 94 new, done for you, electrical menus, The New Flat Rate is equipping electrical contractors with pricing options for more complex repairs.

“Electrical service and repairs can be complicated to price without a ready-made source to help,” said Danielle Putnam, president of The New Flat Rate. “This upgrade will provide electrical contractors with more specific and comprehensive ‘built-for-you’ menus to serve even more diverse situations. These menus will make it even simpler for contractors to close the sale and provide the best solutions available to their customers.”

Included in the upgrade are 10 brand new repair types. The New Flat Rate also expanded four of the existing repair types to help contractors handle more complex scenarios.

Some of the categories that were expanded include:

  • Light switch repair or replace
  • Smoke detector install
  • Light fixture installation
  • Light fixture repair
  • Breaker replacements
  • Outlet replacements
  • Breaker panel service, install or replacement
  • Add or move a circuit
  • Surge protection

“Making contractors’ lives easier is our specialty. Upgrading and expanding our electrical module is another step that we took toward allowing contractors to be comfortable presenting options in the field,” Putnam said. “We want to be the one-stop shop for price menus in the home service industry, and we continue innovating and evolving our product to ensure we meet the needs of our members.”

The No. 1 price generating software company helps owners sharpen business practices with proven strategies at annual event

The New Flat Rate, the No. 1 price generating software for home service contractors, is hitting the ground running as it gears up for the fourth annual Business Uncensored conference in Atlanta. The two-and-a-half-day event will take place at the Omni Atlanta Hotel at CNN Center, Oct. 3-5.

The New Flat Rate is hitting the ground running as it gears up for the fourth annual Business Uncensored conference in Atlanta.

This high-level business conference will provide home service business owners and their implementers with proven strategies to help them prepare for the future. This year’s theme of “Back to the Future” places an emphasis on positioning each company in attendance for growth at hyper speed. With over 16 sessions, contractors will have an opportunity for extensive training on a multitude of topics to help positively impact the future of their business.

“Regardless of the size of your business, Business Uncensored is a resource where you can interact with other contractors in a non-competitive environment and build systems to help your business evolve and grow.,” said Rodney Koop, founder and CEO of The New Flat Rate. “This is more than just your everyday conference. Business Uncensored is geared toward providing you with proven solutions that ultimately unleash their full potential while building connections with like-minded individuals.”

Over the course of the conference, attendees will participate in several sessions that provide valuable lessons on a variety of topics that play major roles in a business’ success. From personal communication strategies to closing the sale, participants will be able to obtain beneficial knowledge that can help them develop a competitive advantage in their service areas.

“Setting your company up for success by establishing a detailed, rock-solid plan is vital for any business, and Business Uncensored helps you accomplish this in an environment with other contractors looking to accomplish the same goal,” said Danielle Putnam, president of The New Flat Rate. “We are here to help business owners develop new game-changing strategies they can take home and implement within their own companies. Just as The New Flat Rate is more than a menu-pricing company, your company can be more than a service provider. It can be a vehicle that empowers employees and customers to achieve success while pushing the company to new levels and a better future.”

Speakers from The New Flat Rate include Putnam, Rodney Koop and Matt Koop. The keynote speaker for Business Uncensored will be business coach, author and host of the Profit Toolbelt podcast Dominic Rubino. Rubino has grown businesses from $1 million up to $120 million. A serial entrepreneur, he has built and sold two different multi-national companies since 2000.

The No. 1 price generating software company helps owners create efficient, effective businesses that increase revenue during annual event

The New Flat Rate, the No. 1 price generating software for home service contractors, will be helping contractors develop self-sufficient businesses that create freedom in their professional and personal lives during the fourth annual Freedom Builders Mastermind, May 2-6 in Camdenton, Missouri.

During the four-day event, entrepreneurs will spend time with some of the top minds in the Home Services industry while learning how to multiply their revenue over the next 12 months. Attendees will workshop in small groups while writing processes to help fix pain points and build towards having more freedom in their business.

“When we started Freedom Builders Mastermind, we wanted it to be different from other business building events or workshops,” said Matt Koop, vice president of The New Flat Rate. “We wanted people to feel comfortable speaking about their business pain points and concerns. With Mastermind, we get to workshop in small groups at the dinner table, in private lobbies, or we may even do so while taking a hike. This is much more like an intimate gathering with friends that happen to be working toward maximizing their business.

“The premise of the Freedom Builders Mastermind is to create the freedom that contractors want by identifying any problem areas in their businesses and providing actionable steps toward real solutions. Over the course of the event, we know that our attendees will have the added tools to turn their companies into a vehicle that drives revenue up and brings them one step closer to the life they want and deserve.”

The Mastermind will offer insight from coaches and consultants that will assist attendees in small groups to work on key priorities of their business. The seven key areas of focus during the event include:

  • Building your best exit strategy
  • Developing processes using your skills and abilities to bridge the current gaps
  • Fully understanding your marketing needs
  • Growing into the leader that the best hires want to work for
  • Creating generational wealth by investing your profit right
  • Workflow changes that will give you maximum results
  • Building a culture that attracts customers and team members

“Running a successful business is hard, but it can be even more difficult without the right leadership skills or having proper processes in place,” Koop said. “With the Freedom Builders Mastermind, we want to help develop those skills and introduce strategies that make contractors successful. If you are struggling to keep your business afloat, then you need to be at Mastermind because the problems aren’t going to go away on their own. You have to work to fix them.”

This event is open to all business owners. For more information on the Freedom Builders Mastermind event, please visit: https://freedombuildersuniversity.com/attend-a-mastermind.

Danielle Putnam to lead discussion on the importance of eliminating slow seasons with strategic marketing in the home service industry

Danielle Putnam, president of The New Flat Rate, the first menu-pricing system for home service contractors, will teach owners how to eliminate the “slow seasons” during her keynote presentation at Barefoot Roundtable in Palm Spring, California, April 6.

Putnam’s presentation titled “No Slow Season in Business” will take place in the opening session on the main stage from 9:30 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. local time. During her presentation, Putnam will explain how marketing can help home service business owners keep the phones ringing by building a predictable revenue and profit engine.

“One of the main barriers to scaling up for many in the home service industry is the lack of an effective marketing strategy,” Putnam said. “Oftentimes, we don’t approach marketing proactively, and that can create a deficit that’s hard to overcome when traditionally busy seasons subside. This presentation is designed to provide tools that will ease the stress for contractors and effectively end the slow seasons for their business.”

Putnam is an established thought leader in the HVACR industry, recently being named 2021 Woman of the Year by Service World Expo. Putnam has also been named to The ACHR News Top 40 Under 40 and is an advisory board member and past president of Women in HVACR.

The New Flat Rate’s software-based menu pricing system helps contractors in the service industry transition to business experts by providing technicians with tools that help increase sales pressure-free. By offering service providers done-for-you pricing for residential service calls, technicians can present prices instantly with the confidence of knowing in advance what to charge.

“From the moment we opened the doors at The New Flat Rate, our main objective has been to minimize the stress of selling services for contractors and increase their revenue,” Putnam said. “We’ve done this by providing an easy-to-use solution that presents the customers with multiple options to choose from. Through the efforts of our team, we’ve set the contractor up for success by increasing their sales and creating both business and personal freedom.”

The Barefoot Roundtable is a conference that brings all members of Service Roundtable, Service Nation Alliance, and associated members together to learn tools for business success and take their companies to the next level. Taking place April 5-7, attendees have access to the top contractors in the nation and learn from them and make connections.
