Smyrna Handyman

We have been in the Smyrna Handyman business for over 25 years. After many years of working in this city, we decided to take one step back in order to leap 5 steps forward. The step backward was to invest heavily into Smyrna Handyman tracking technology. To be more specific, all of our employees now use a GPS navigational system. Because the streets in Atlanta are not organized in any specific system (ie: square city blocks), it can be tricky to navigate them. We decided to spend thousands of dollars in order to maximize our time in the home, and decrease time on the road. Every second counts in our Smyrna Handyman industry and we want to spend them on our customers, not in traffic.

The GPS systems have a number of features which help save time for our employees. Before we leaped into this new technology, we did have some experience using Map Point which is a routing program with Microsoft. Because of this experience, we learned to think in terms of routing and organization. We were very eager to learn the GPS technology as it was a logical progression to our mapping software. The first feature we put into practice was the ability to save a list of favorite locations. This is especially useful when we need to go to a specific neighborhood but can't remember the specific address where we performed one of our work assignments in the past. Another beneficial feature is the ability to calculate an alternative route. In the instance of bad weather or traffic jams, this can save us a lot of time. One of the interesting aspects of a GPS system is that it automatically calibrates different routes. What this means is you can drive away from its suggested course, and it will simply provide the best available route from that point. So if the traffic is heavy, just drive away from it and the GPS unit will give you another option of a way to make it to the location on schedule.

Because our industry often requires different types of equipment and supplies, we frequent hardware stores. We use one of the available GPS features that can locate the closest Smyrna Handyman hardware stores from your current location. This saves us having to make phone calls and look at maps to find supply locations. Lastly and probably most importantly, we can save the locations that we have previously been to. This allows us to simply select the previous location and follow the GPS directions if a previous customer calls for repeat business.

The transition to GPS technology did not happen over night. We took the necessary time to learn the technology, and where to get the best deal for the best product (thus passing those savings on to our customers). We learned all of the features in the units so we can use the GPS units to their maximum efficiency. The end result is that we are now more efficient at logistical planning and delivery for our Smyrna Handyman operation. Moving forward, you can count on us to keep pace with the technological advancements so that we can provide the best Smyrna Handyman service to our customers. We are constantly aware that in order to keep our customers happy, we must be extremely organized and efficient.
