      <title>Stop Wasted Truck Rolls: The Shift for Home Service Franchises (Blog)</title>
      <link>https://marketing.goserv.com/blog/your-truck-rolls-are-bleeding-you-dry</link>
      <description>&lt;div class="hs-featured-image-wrapper"&gt; 
 &lt;a href="https://marketing.goserv.com/blog/your-truck-rolls-are-bleeding-you-dry" title="" class="hs-featured-image-link"&gt; &lt;img src="https://marketing.goserv.com/hubfs/Gemini_Generated_Image_iollvliollvlioll.png" alt="An Animated Truck Roll Bleeding Dollars" class="hs-featured-image" style="width:auto !important; max-width:50%; float:left; margin:0 15px 15px 0;"&gt; &lt;/a&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p style="line-height: 1.8;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;As the home services customer acquisition race has heated up in recent years, we've watched sales &amp;amp; operations teams convince themselves they need more trucks, more techs, and more leads to grow.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p style="line-height: 1.8;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;They're wrong.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p style="line-height: 1.8;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;What they actually need is to stop burning 30–40% of their field capacity on visits that generate zero revenue.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p style="line-height: 1.8;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Every time you send a truck for a "free estimate," you're not just spending gas money. You're quietly draining your operation of the capacity it needs to scale. And most companies don't calculate the real cost until it's already choking their growth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h3 style="line-height: 1.8;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;</description>

      <title>Feature Releases 1.8.0</title>
      <link>https://marketing.goserv.com/blog/feature-releases-1.7.0-0</link>
      <description>&lt;div class="hs-featured-image-wrapper"&gt; 
 &lt;a href="https://marketing.goserv.com/blog/feature-releases-1.7.0-0" title="" class="hs-featured-image-link"&gt; &lt;img src="https://marketing.goserv.com/hubfs/mockuuups-free-construction-iphone-15-pro-mockup-1.jpeg" alt="Feature Releases 1.8.0" class="hs-featured-image" style="width:auto !important; max-width:50%; float:left; margin:0 15px 15px 0;"&gt; &lt;/a&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;The SERV app just got even better with awesome new features like phone number editing, route view upgrades, fresh payment options, and smarter invoicing, email, and SMS tools. Ready to check it out? Let’s dive in!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2 style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Highlight &amp;amp; Confirm New Subscriptions in Route View&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;New subscription jobs are now clearly marked in the Route View for easy tracking and confirmation.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h4 style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Key Updates:&lt;/h4&gt; 
&lt;ul&gt; 
 &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Visual Indicators:&lt;/strong&gt; 
  &lt;ul&gt; 
   &lt;li&gt;New subscription appointments have a distinct highlight.&lt;/li&gt; 
   &lt;li&gt;A "New" icon signals pending confirmation.&lt;/li&gt; 
  &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/li&gt; 
 &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Job Confirmation Actions:&lt;/strong&gt; 
  &lt;ul&gt; 
   &lt;li&gt;A "Confirm" button finalizes the appointment.&lt;/li&gt; 
   &lt;li&gt;A "Reschedule" option allows easy modifications.&lt;/li&gt; 
  &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/li&gt; 
 &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Job Alert Card:&lt;/strong&gt; 
  &lt;ul&gt; 
   &lt;li&gt;Displays the number of unconfirmed appointments at the top of the Route View.&lt;/li&gt; 
   &lt;li&gt;Disappears once all appointments are confirmed.&lt;/li&gt; 
  &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;/ul&gt; 
&lt;h5 style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Steps To Use:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h5&gt; 
&lt;ol&gt; 
 &lt;li&gt;Go to Schedule and select Route View.&lt;/li&gt; 
 &lt;li&gt;New appointments will be displayed with a “New” icon&lt;/li&gt; 
 &lt;li&gt;To easily confirm the appointment for that day, you can click on the appointment tile and click the “confirm” button or reschedule the appointment to a new day of service.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;/ol&gt; 
&lt;h2 style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Allow Phone Numbers to Be Edited&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Admins and Owners can now update a customer’s phone number, ensuring accurate records and continued service operations. Editing a phone number will delete any historical messages between your business and the phone number you edit so please be aware before editing phone numbers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
