The Arboras app
Price the plants before you price the job.
Build the list, see the total, show your client.
The price you see is the price you pay.
- Today's prices
- Photos of every plant
- Becomes your order
- iPhone, iPad, Android
Example project at Arboras prices.
From price sheet to order in 15 seconds.
One pool job, start to finish, at Arboras prices.
The plant line is the guess in most proposals.
Last season's price sheet.
Prices and sizes move every season. A guessed plant line either eats your margin or loses the bid.
Calling around for prices.
A morning on the phone to price one list, and the numbers can be stale by the time the client signs.
Estimate the plant budget in three steps.
Build the list.
Search the catalog by plant or size, and add what the plan calls for to the job's project.
See the plant total.
Prices show as you add each line, so the plant budget in your proposal is a number, not a guess.
Send it when the job sells.
The same project becomes your order, with no retyping. Any change comes back to you first.
Something on the plan isn't in the app? We source well beyond it. Send us the list.
Sell the job with the plants in front of them.
- Show the plant, not a spreadsheet. Photos and descriptions for every plant, on the iPad you bring to the meeting.
- Keep your prices to yourself. Hide the prices, and the client sees the plants and sizes, not what you pay.
- Change it on the spot. Swap a size or a plant and the total updates.
- One project per client. Every job keeps its own list, in draft until they say yes.
The price sheet versus the app.
| What changes | Price sheet | Arboras app |
|---|---|---|
| Prices | Last season's, or a guess | Today's, and it's what you pay |
| Sizes | Whatever you remember | What's listed now, up to 16' B&B |
| Showing the client | A spreadsheet of names | Photos and descriptions, prices hidden |
| When it sells | Retype it as an order | Send the same list |
| Who checks it | You do | We do, before it's ordered |
Questions about the app.
- Is it free?
- Yes, on the App Store and Google Play.
- What prices will I see?
- Current prices for every plant and size. The price you see is the price you pay.
- Can my client see the list?
- Yes. Hide the prices, and your client sees the plants, photos, and sizes, not what you pay.
- Do I have to use the app to order?
- No. Send us the list by text, WhatsApp, or email, and one quote comes back by the end of the next business day.
- Who checks my order?
- We do, before anything's ordered. Every size, count, and swap gets a look from someone with 20 years in the landscape trade, and any change comes back to you first. Question about a plant on the list? Text us.
