Office Shed have helped 100’s of business all over Australia!
Let us help you better streamline your jobs!
With over 10-years’ experience using job management apps for our admin support clients, we have developed a deep understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of each system from a user perspective. Thus, we are uniquely placed to give our clients an honest and accurate opinion of which job management system will best suit their business and needs.
We are happy to talk to any trade or services business owner about what job management app will best suit your business and give recommendations based off that discussion. Then if you require it, we can help you set it up properly. Whether that’s from scratch or if you’re migrating from a different job management software. If that’s the case, we will set up your new system and then migrate important historical customer and job data from your old system over to the new one. If you’re already set up on a system and happy with it, but require some tweaks, new additions, or further training, we can help you there too.
Set up your business for success
Choosing the right job management app for tradies is critical to your business success. The wrong job management software risks wasting time, losing jobs and information, losing track of staff and costs, or worse, you risk losing face with your customers. Office Shed will advise you on all the benefits and pricing of each. You can compare all solutions, we can set you up with a trial, then help you select and set up the most suitable for your trades or services business.
You’ll have up-to-date information, accurate customer details, work orders and quote requests updated as they come in, whilst work can be scheduled and allocated to the appropriate staff. Most importantly, labour, materials and other costs will be recorded at the time and billed on the day of completion.
All top apps for tradies sync with Xero, so there’s no double entry. Our advantage is we continuously use these programs on a daily basis, so we understand what the user experience is actually like for tradies. The daily maintenance of job management software is included in our admin support packages.

I cannot speak highly enough of Officehed.
After running my business for 15 years and trying to do everything myself, I finally decided to bite the bullet and bring on administrative support to help take the business to the next level. Looking back, I only wish I had done it sooner.
Officehed has made the entire process incredibly simple and seamless. My VA, (Susan Cadell), has been absolutely outstanding. She is proactive, highly organised, genuinely cares about the success of my business, and has been incredibly hands-on in helping take a huge amount of stress off my shoulders.
The impact on my efficiency and productivity has been remarkable. Over the past six months, Susan has helped implement systems and processes that have taken my business to places I could only dream about before.
I highly recommend Officehed and Susan to any business owner looking to free up their time, reduce stress, improve efficiency, and create the foundation for growth. Engaging their services has been one of the best business decisions I’ve made. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We have been using Office Shed for the last 12 months. Jess has been a life saver for our small business. Hit the ground running right from the start. If Jess was unavailable due to holidays/sickness there were many other amazing people on the admin team that would help our business. Office Shed is absolutely a god send for small businesses. Highly recommend!

Office Shed have been absolute legends to work with. Super reliable, easy to deal with, and they’ve genuinely helped take the pressure off running the business. From sorting out the admin to keeping things organised behind the scenes, they’ve made a massive difference. Althea has been very helpful along the way.
If you’re a tradie looking to get your time back and focus on the tools, these guys are the real deal!

I have been using Officesheds service for years now, and I could not go without their service.
They offer a retainer based admin service, spread across the week, which works perfectly for my plumbing business.
I recommend them highly to anyone in need of help with admin, and day to day operations.
Special thankyou to Kya from the team, who goes above and beyond to make sure all my business admin and job scheduling is running smoothly

I’ve employed the services of Office shed for over a year now and it’s one of the best business decisions I made!
Tamzin has been an integral part of my businesses growth, from scheduling jobs, answering the phone, replying to emails and even setting up fool proof systems using service m8, I’m no longer trapped in the office every night doing admin and can concentrate on what I’m good at, being on the tools!
I would highly recommend office shed to any trade business in the service industry.

I have been with office shed for over 2 years. Before I used their service I was a typical tradie/ small business owner working until 11pm each night. When I took on their service, they slowly took away all the little admin jobs that eat away at your day. I now finish at 5pm, I am less stressed, I have more time with my family. I can’t recommend their admin and support services highly enough. Dan
