INTRODUCTION<\/p>\n
Self-employed plumber Jason Chivers has been running his own business, Jaycee plumbing and gas fitting, for over a year. He often finds himself working twelve to fourteen-hour days before having to go home and do the books.<\/p>\n
This had no future. Jason needed a way to manage his business on-the-go and save himself time and stress.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”The challenge” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ background_color=”#ffeeed” min_height_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_margin_phone=”||-30px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_padding=”||||false|false” background_enable_image_phone=”off” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” custom_padding_last_edited=”off|desktop” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”||40px||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”||40px||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_css_main_element=”margin-top:auto;||margin-bottom:auto;” pac_dcm_carousel_specific_module_num=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ header_2_font_size=”32px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
THE CHALLENGE<\/p>\n
Jason has put his full weight behind his plumbing and gas fitting business and he certainly knows what hard work looks like. To keep his business healthy and profitable, long hours are the norm and there\u2019s precious little time to waste.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou never stop.\u201d<\/p>\n
Yet running a business is not just about your passion for work and executing the tasks you are skilled in. It also involves potentially tedious yet necessary accounting and invoicing. The aim of the game, of course, is to minimise this bookkeeping as drastically as possible, leaving more time for clients and personal life.<\/p>\n
Spending excessive time on the books and not the tools is a clear barrier to not only success, but also a healthy work\/life balance.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have a 12-14 hour day then you\u2019ve got to go home and hit the books? It\u2019s just too much.\u201d<\/p>\n
Not only is getting onto the next job on top of Jason\u2019s priority list, but also his desire to have enough time to play football.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ custom_css_main_element=”margin-top:auto;||margin-bottom:auto;” pac_dcm_carousel_specific_module_num=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.reckon.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/Case-Studies\/jason-chivers.png” title_text=”Jason Chivers” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” z_index=”1″ width=”177px” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_testimonial author=” Jason Chivers, Jaycee Plumbing & Gasfitting” quote_icon=”off” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” body_font=”|700|on||||||” body_text_align=”left” author_font=”||||||||” author_text_align=”left” background_color=”#FFFFFF” custom_margin=”-80px||||false|false” custom_padding=”100px|45px|30px|45px|false|true” custom_css_testimonial_author=”margin-top:8px;” border_radii=”off||40px|14px|40px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to be spending more time doing the things that I love doing rather than the things that I have to be doing. Having the time to be able to go to football training and keep fit is paramount for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
