The matchup sheet is not paperwork. It's what makes your install options real. Here's how to read one and why the number belongs on every proposal.
5 signs your ServiceTitan pricebook is costing you money
Techs calling the office, one-option quotes, a busy misc line, half-done dynamic pricing, parts itemized on invoices. Five leaks you can spot this week.
Your pricebook has 400 services. The good ones have 80.

The quiet margin leak between quote and install, and how a pricebook built right holds your margin when supplier costs move.

Most tiered proposals fail because the options only differ by price. Here's how to build tiers a homeowner actually understands.
You can't out-market a broken pricebook
More leads won't save a shop that closes poorly and leaks margin. Marketing multiplies what's already there, so fix the book first.
