01/27/10 – Moving Forward

Many wall and ceiling contractors have enjoyed great success by simply working hard, and bidding jobs with paper plans and a calculator.  However, staying successful keeps getting tougher and tougher, as competitors have geared-up with expensive, computerized takeoff and estimating systems.

Additionally, paper plans keep getting more expensive and harder to find.  Now, PlanSwift, a very reasonably priced, software program enables you to produce takeoffs, easier than ever, without any paper plans.

More good news: Now, getting organized can cost you less than ever before.  In fact, you can get started by estimating with software that is probably already on your computer.
