Tradie Software faqs

What if I already have software in place and I just need help with it?

Yes, we can help with that too! We offer optimisation, setup, integration and extra training services for tradies who want to get the most out of their existing software programs.

For more details, book in a free 15 minute call where we can chat about what you need.

Are you paid commission from the software companies?

All software companies offer a reseller or referral program to their bookkeeping, accounting and implementation partners. We are a reseller or referral partner with all of the software companies we work with and are recognised for doing the hard work to match a client to the ideal software for their business.

Our main job is to help you find the right software and it’s pretty obvious if we get this wrong, so these incentives in no way influence the decision we make on recommending a particular software.

Why shouldn’t I go directly to the software vendor?

Software companies are great at developing software and showing you which buttons to click but they don’t get into the nitty gritty of workflow development, change management, business process and integrations into other systems.

TradiePad are specialist trainers that will work with you to optimise and tailor how you use all of the technology tools in your business. We provide you with independent, unbiased advice on your software options so you can make an informed decision on which ones will work best for you. Our personalised training projects are tailored to suit the human beings in your business, we help you and your team learn how to use your chosen software to its maximum potential, catering to every skill level and tech ability.
