Minimal Tech Stack for Maximum Coordination: 3 Tools Every Contractor Needs

You don’t need 14 different apps.You just need three basic tools.

Phone + CRM App OpenPhone plus Airtable or Jobber to log every inquiry.
Scheduling or Dispatch Board Google Calendar works fine early on. Or go next level with ServiceTitan or Housecall Pro.
Invoicing and Payments QuickBooks or Jobber. Send invoices immediately after service, not whenever you have time.

Tech should make you faster, not busier.
