  • In this video, I do a walk-through and review Houzz Pro software. I've been using HOUZZ.com for years to showcase our work. It is a great tool and has tools like "ideabooks" that can be shared with clients to exchange ideas- ALL for FREE!! You can get more info or start a free trial at www.houzz.com/hprf/SAWHOR317
    They have been offering more and more tools to contractors and designers. It seems like every time that I log in, I see a new tool. If you are a new contractor and are trying to decide between several platforms- I would give HOUZZ a try to see if it works for you. There are many great tools that they have as part of the platform that others don't have, and they are working on some innovations right now to make sure they are on par OR better than the competition.
    If you are a PRO and need help from Emily (my rep who is awesome)- follow this link for 1 FREE month of services: www.houzz.com/hprf/SAWHOR317
    Here are some of their more popular packages- www.houzz.com/houzz-pro/pricing. They told me they have a 30-day free trial for Starter & Essential subscription packages.

    Thank you very much for doing this video. I have been looking into Houzzpro. Wish it had a section you can create scope of work.

      They are working on that. Right now there are many features in production that will make it more useful to both contractors and designers. I think there might be a way to do this using the estimating feature. I tried and could not make it work, however it seems like it should.

      @@SawHorseDesignBuild that will be good if they get that done. I just found out the other day that they don't have Quickbooks Online integration for Canada so will put Houzz Pro on the back burner until they have that.

      @@jamescrozier8156 Good question- if you use the designer side then you can have them sign off on them now. I think they will be releasing the contractor side very soon. One of the directors pinged me on Friday and said they had updates so I can ask them then.

    Say if I started a painting company but I only wanted to paint kitchen cabinets.. would Houzz pro allow me to only get leads for painting cabinets vs somebody wanting their house painted?

    • @SawHorseDesignBuild
      @SawHorseDesignBuild  Před rokem

      That's a great question. I know some categories are broad and others can be narrowed down. If they don't allow for just cabinets- perhaps pass the painting leads over to another company for a small referal fee. Here is a link to set up an account so you can get a rep to ask directly. www.houzz.com/hprf/SAWHOR317
      I can also ask my rep if you like.

    Houzz Pro is a scam. It was pitched as a lead generation service. It is not. They are stealing $500 a month from my small business. Matthew Moynan blatantly lied and got us to sign a 1yr subscription under false pretenses. When I confronted them with the fact that I was lied to, they said tough luck.

    • @SawHorseDesignBuild

      I actually do get quite a few leads from this service so I know that it works. It is much better than other lead service who sell less than qualified leads. What category are you under? There are other tools that you have access to as well as part of the PRO services.

    It's harder to keep up with the software than the whole remodeling or construction. That's a pass.

    • @SawHorseDesignBuild
      @SawHorseDesignBuild  Před 8 měsíci

      Is there another software that you use? We use several platforms since all of our clients need something different.
