Stop Running Your Business From WhatsApp and Spreadsheets

Most trade businesses keep quotes in one place, invoices in another, supplier orders in someone's head and commission on a spreadsheet. Jobs get stuck, deposits get missed and nobody knows what's next.

BlueManager puts every job on one board and moves it forward automatically as work gets done. Each job shows the one thing to do next, so your office, reps and installers always know where things stand. It pairs naturally with our lead generation packages: we bring in the enquiries, BlueManager helps you turn them into paid jobs.

How It Works

Every Job, Step by Step

Switch off the steps you don't use and rename the rest in your own words.

  1. Step 1

    Quote

    Build a branded quote from your price list in minutes. Send it by email, WhatsApp or SMS with a link your client accepts online.

  2. Step 2

    Deposit

    When they accept, the deposit invoice is created for you. Record the payment and the job moves on by itself.

  3. Step 3

    Order & Schedule

    Capture site measurements, send purchase orders to suppliers, chase late deliveries, then book the job and your team.

  4. Step 4

    Sign-Off & Paid

    The client signs on your phone, the balance invoice goes out, and once paid, rep commission is worked out for you.

Everything Your Team Needs

Built with a working South African glass and shower company, then opened up for every trade.

Quotes Clients Accept Online

Professional PDF quotes with your logo, plus a private link where the client views, accepts and downloads their deposit invoice.

Deposit, Balance & Final Invoices

Deposit percentages per job type, payments recorded against invoices, and a "settled in full" invoice when the job is done.

Supplier Orders & Follow-Ups

Purchase orders filled from your measurements or quote, emailed to suppliers, with expected dates and reminders when they're late.

Scheduling & Job Cards

A weekly installation calendar, printable job cards, before-and-after photos and client sign-off with a signature on the phone.

Rep Commission

Commission per rep and per line, worked out on the selling price. Reps only see their own jobs, and you see what's due at a glance.

Email, WhatsApp & SMS

Send from your own mailbox, one-tap WhatsApp messages, SMS booking confirmations and automatic reminders the day before.

Nothing Falls Through the Cracks

Quotes to follow up, jobs stuck too long, late supplier orders and unpaid balances, plus a morning email telling each person what to do today.

Your Brand, Your Words

Your logo and colours on the app and every document, three document layouts, and the steps named the way your team talks.

Reports & Excel Exports

Quote conversion, work in progress, outstanding balances and lead sources, with one-click Excel exports for your accountant.

Made for Site Work

Your Team Works From Their Phones

  • Reps capture leads, build quotes and see their own commission.
  • Installers and technicians see their job cards and calendar, take photos and get the client's signature on site.
  • The office handles invoices, payments, supplier orders and the schedule.
  • Add it to your home screen and it opens like an app. English and Afrikaans.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to install anything?

No. BlueManager runs in your web browser on a computer, tablet or phone. On a phone you can add it to your home screen so it opens like an app.

What happens when the free trial ends?

If you don't choose a plan, your account becomes read-only. Nothing is deleted: you can still view and download everything, and pick up where you left off as soon as you subscribe. Any trial days you have left are added on top when you subscribe early.

Where is my data stored, and who owns it?

You own your data. It's stored on servers in Johannesburg, South Africa, with daily backups, and each company has its own separate database. We never sell it or use it for advertising. Read the BlueManager Privacy Policy.

Can I cancel any time?

Yes. Cancel the monthly plan from inside the app and you keep access until the end of the month you've paid for. There's no lock-in and no cancellation fee. See the Terms of Service.

Will it work for my type of business?

If you quote, take a deposit, do the work and invoice, it will. You can switch off steps you don't need (like supplier orders or commission), rename steps and job types, and choose a simple or measured quote layout.

Do I need SMS or an email account?

No. Quotes and invoices can be sent from day one. Connect your own business mailbox so they come from your address, and optionally an SMS account (BulkSMS, SMSPortal or Clickatell) for text messages, which you pay the provider for directly.

Can you help me get set up?

Yes. Sign-up takes a few minutes and a setup wizard walks you through your details, logo and team. If you'd like a hand loading your price list or a walkthrough for your team, get in touch.
