The situation

The public site ran on Wix and the business ran on whatever tools were to hand. The system started as a client and invoice tracker synced with Wix and grew into the platform the office and the crew now run on every day.

What was built

Instant quotesThe website’s space calculator feeds the system, with a 318-item catalogue, add-on quotes for existing clients, branded PDF quotes and abandoned-quote capture.

Quote pipelineA board of every open quote with missed-step flags, plus analytics on what converts.

Client lifecycleGuided onboarding, renewals that follow the storage term, a shipping pipeline and a clean exit flow.

Invoicing & chasingDrafts, bulk sending, two-way sync with Wix invoices, an invoice trace page and an overdue-chasing ladder with safety checks on every send.

Unified messagingGmail, Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp in one inbox, filed against the right client, with authenticated email (SPF, DKIM, DMARC).

WarehouseAn interactive unit map, per-warehouse capacity, QR pallet labels and a logistics calendar synced to Google Calendar.

Crew appAn installable Android app with home-screen widgets, GPS clock-in, timesheets, job checklists, routine vehicle and stock checks, and on-site item counts against the quote.

Customer portalClients see statements, files and stored stock, declare item values for insurance and raise service requests.

AccountsSales ledger, expense capture with receipt scanning, VAT summaries, exports and website and social analytics.
