The Five‑Number Weekly Scorecard (ServiceTitan • Jobber • Housecall Pro)

A one‑page, fill‑in scorecard for home service owner‑operators. Includes plain formulas, exact report paths in ServiceTitan/Jobber/Housecall Pro, trade‑flavored starting targets, pitfalls to check, and a ‘pick one lever’ box to ship a 7‑day test each week.

Use this one‑pager for a 10‑minute Tuesday review. Fill it from last week’s data, pick one lever to ship in the next 7 days, and assign an owner. Keep it to the five numbers that catch the biggest leaks from call → cash.

Header — Set your week and thresholds

  • Trade: [HVAC | PLUMBING | ELECTRICAL]
  • Platform: [SERVICETITAN | JOBBER | HOUSECALL PRO]
  • Week of (Mon–Sun): [YYYY‑MM‑DD]
  • Business hours used for phone metrics: [HH:MM–HH:MM]
  • Review crew: [DISPATCHER NAME], [LEAD TECH NAME], [OWNER/GM]
  • Red/Yellow/Green thresholds (set once, adjust quarterly):
    • Missed‑Call Rate: [GREEN ≤% | YELLOW % | RED ≥%]
    • % First Response ≤15 min: [GREEN ≥% | YELLOW % | RED ≤%]
    • Estimate Close Rate: [GREEN ≥% | YELLOW % | RED ≤%]
    • Schedule Utilization: [GREEN % | YELLOW % | RED ≤/≥%]
    • Days‑to‑Cash OR % ≤7 Days: [GREEN ≤__ days | ≥__%]
  • Notes carried over from last Tuesday: [NOTES]

KPI 1 — Missed‑Call Rate

  • Definition: Percent of inbound calls during business hours that were not answered by a human/queue (missed or abandoned).
  • Formula: Missed calls ÷ Total inbound calls (business hours only).

Where to pull it

  • ServiceTitan: Phones/Contact Center > Calls > Abandoned (and Answered). Filter: [Last Week], [Business Unit], [Business Hours]. Export if needed.
  • Housecall Pro: Reporting > Voice > Call Log. Tabs: Inbound + Missed. Filter: [Date Range: Last Week]. Export CSV.
  • Jobber: Via phone integration (e.g., CallRail). CallRail > Reports > Call Log (Missed vs Answered). Filter to tracking numbers and business hours. If no integration, use phone provider logs.

Starting targets (tune by season, not absolutes)

  • HVAC: ≤8–12% in peak; ≤5–8% shoulder.
  • Plumbing/Electrical: ≤5–10% most weeks.

Common pitfalls to check

  • After‑hours mixed into numerator; duplicate tracking numbers; voicemail counted as answered.

Pick one lever (choose one and assign)

  • Route all missed calls to one queue with owner: [NAME].
  • Two callbacks + 1 SMS within 15 minutes playbook live? [YES/NO].
  • Turn on voicemail transcription + Slack/Teams alert to missed‑call channel. [ON/OFF].
  • Overflow to answering service after [X] rings during peak. [ON/OFF].

This week’s number: [%] Target: [%] Owner: [NAME] Status: [GREEN | YELLOW | RED]

KPI 2 — % First Response ≤15 Minutes

  • Definition: Percent of new leads (calls, web forms, texts) that received the first human reply within 15 minutes during business hours.
  • Formula: Leads first‑touched ≤15:00 ÷ Total new leads (exclude truly after‑hours unless you staff it).

Where to pull it (expect a simple spreadsheet join)

  • ServiceTitan: Phones/Contact Center > Call Log (inbound/missed timestamps). Pair with Marketing Pro > Forms > Submissions (created time). Compute first outbound touch time (callback/SMS/email) from call log or CRM activity.
  • Housecall Pro: Reporting > Voice > Call Log (inbound/missed). Pair with Inbox/Messages or Estimates created; calculate first outbound touch time. Export and compute first_touch - created.
  • Jobber: Insights > Requests (Created) + Activity Feed events (first text/email/call) and/or CallRail first‑return timestamp. Export and compute in sheet.

Starting targets (business hours focus)

  • Aim for ≥60–80% within 15 minutes in‑hours; use auto‑acknowledge for off‑hours.

Common pitfalls to check

  • Auto‑replies counted as “first touch” (decide your rule); web leads missing phone numbers; no single owner on the timer.

Pick one lever (choose one and assign)

  • Turn on auto‑acknowledge SMS/email: “Got it — we’ll call within 15 minutes during [HOURS].” [ON DATE].
  • Assign SLA owner (name on the timer) per day: [NAME].
  • Create a single “New Lead” queue board/column visible to dispatcher. [DONE/NOT YET].
  • Add a big on‑screen 15:00 timer macro for new leads. [INSTALLED/NOT YET].

This week’s number: [%] Target: [%] Owner: [NAME] Status: [GREEN | YELLOW | RED]

KPI 3 — Estimate Close Rate

  • Definition: Percent of estimates sent/presented in the period that converted to approved/sold jobs.
  • Formula (weekly, keep window consistent): Approved (Sold) estimates ÷ Sent estimates.

Where to pull it

  • Jobber: Insights > Reports > Quotes Report (Conversion Rate). Filter by [Sent Date: Last Week]. Note: Jobber conversion can exceed 100% if quotes convert without being marked “sent.”
  • Housecall Pro: Reporting > Estimates > Conversion Rate. Filter [Last Week] and by business unit/tech as needed.
  • ServiceTitan: Reports > Estimates (e.g., Estimate Performance / Sold by Technician). Filter [Date Sent: Last Week]. If needed, compute: count Sold ÷ count Sent.

Starting targets (use as a baseline)

  • HVAC: 50–65% (varies with season and ticket size).
  • Plumbing: 60–75%.
  • Electrical: 55–70%.

Common pitfalls to check

  • Techs not marking quotes “sent” or “sold”; duplicate versions; expired quotes dragging rate.

Pick one lever (choose one and assign)

  • Ship 3‑option template (Good/Better/Best) in your quoting tool. Owner: [NAME]. Due: [DATE].
  • Set 7‑day expiration with auto‑reminders (Day 2/4/6). [ON/OFF].
  • Add online approval + deposit link to every quote. Deposit: [__%].
  • Require on‑site present + same‑day SMS follow‑up with link. [RULE PUBLISHED DATE].

This week’s number: [%] Target: [%] Owner: [NAME] Status: [GREEN | YELLOW | RED]

KPI 4 — Schedule Utilization

  • Definition: How full the schedule is relative to crew capacity.
  • Formula: Booked crew hours ÷ Available crew hours for the week.
    • Booked hours = sum of scheduled job durations (crew‑adjusted).
    • Available hours = total workable crew hours minus PTO/meetings minus reserved rescue capacity.

Where to pull it

  • ServiceTitan: Operations > Dispatch Board > Adaptive Capacity (Provided vs Consumed). Or Reports > Scheduling Utilization. Filter [Last Week].
  • Housecall Pro: Reporting > Create a Report > Travel & Job Duration Time. Sum durations for [Last Week].
  • Jobber: Jobs/Visits (scheduled durations) + Insights > Timesheets (total hours worked). Compute ratio.

Starting targets (protect a rescue slot)

  • Most weeks: 85–95% utilization with 10–15% same‑day/rescue capacity.

Common pitfalls to check

  • Travel time not included; multi‑tech jobs double‑counted; PTO not subtracted from available.

Pick one lever (choose one and assign)

  • Switch to AM/PM (or 3‑window) arrival buckets. Go‑live: [DATE].
  • Hold a daily [1–2 hr] rescue block; release at [TIME] if unused. Owner: [NAME].
  • Next‑day confirmation text at [HH:MM] with reschedule link. [ON/OFF].
  • Map zip‑clusters to reduce windshield time on peak days. [DONE/NOT YET].

This week’s number: [%] Target: [%] Owner: [NAME] Status: [GREEN | YELLOW | RED]

KPI 5 — Days‑to‑Cash or % Collected ≤7 Days

Pick one version and stick with it each quarter.

Option A — Days‑to‑Cash (average)

  • Definition: Average days from job completion to full payment.
  • Formula: Avg( Payment Date − Job Completed Date ) for jobs completed last week.

Option B — % Collected ≤7 Days

  • Definition: Share of jobs paid in full within 7 days of completion.
  • Formula: # Jobs paid ≤7 days ÷ # Jobs completed last week.

Where to pull it

  • ServiceTitan: Reports > AR Transactions; Dashboards > Customer Aging. Filter by [Completed Date: Last Week]. Export for exact day counts if needed.
  • Housecall Pro: Reporting > Invoices > Aging (Past Due) + Payments export. Filter [Completed Last Week].
  • Jobber: Insights > Reports > Payments (date received) + Aged Receivables. Filter [Last Week Completed].

Starting targets (based on common platform patterns)

  • Average days‑to‑cash ≤7 days; or ≥80% collected within 7 days.

Common pitfalls to check

  • Invoices created late; jobs left “open”; check payments not deposited promptly; deposits not tied to jobs.

Pick one lever (choose one and assign)

  • Same‑day invoicing rule at job completion. Owner: [NAME]. Go‑live: [DATE].
  • Require stored card/ACH on file for service agreements. [ON/OFF].
  • Add deposit policy for jobs > [$ AMOUNT] at [__%]. Effective: [DATE].
  • Turn on text‑to‑pay links on completion. [ON/OFF].
