Gabriel Software's QuoteNerd application is an estimating and invoicing tool for Palm OS handhelds. QuoteNerd is a must have tool for any mobile business that provides itemized estimates, quotes and invoices.

When we use the term Mobile Business, we are referring to the tens of thousands of North American businesses - many of which are small operations - whose owners and employees are on the road travelling to customer sites on a daily basis. This definition of Mobile Business includes Building Contractors, Plumbers, Electricians, and Landscapers, to mention just a few of the myriad of Mobile Businesses. These businesses can greatly benefit from the QuoteNerd's ability to improve the speed and accuracy of doing Estimates, Quotes and Invoices. Creating an accurate comprehensive Quote at the customer site can aid in quickly locking in a contract.

Creating Quotes faster is not the only productivity improvement that the QuoteNerd provides. The QuoteNerd can also help to focus on the bottom line by tracking profit margin when estimating a job or sale. What is the best price that you can give the customer without losing your shirt? A QuoteNerd will help you to determine that best price. Each QuoteNerd provides an owner's Summary view of the job and a customer Quote view. The owner view shows the job costs (your wholesale cost) and gross profit for material and service (labor, installation etc) and the overall Gross Margin for the job. The customer view shows the customer price which is the sum of the costs and markups.

Generating and reviewing Estimates and Invoices on the handheld is great but how is the document actually delivered to the customer? QuoteNerd Lite and QuoteNerd Pro both support printing to a wide range of mobile printers - directly from the handheld! There is no need to go back to the office to write-up a Quote or Invoice. No need to cart along a bulky and delicate laptop computer when doing estimates. QuoteNerd Pro provides the best of both worlds. QuoteNerd Pro comes with desktop companion software that supports printing from your desktop or labtop PC and much more.

With the QuoteNerd, you keep your business in your pocket and are ready to do business no matter where you are!
