4 key tools that will make the jobs of professionals easier already this year! 3Gloco Follow Aug 22, 2018 · 6 min read

You probably agree that professionals should spend most of their time being engaged in their primary activity. It’s unfortunate that this is not the case in today’s world. In addition to all the necessary paperwork, there is not much time left for marketing, the additional optimization of already existing processes, and there is also payment indiscipline and many other inconveniences that negatively affect our businesses. Summer is coming to an end, and we can think of a few reasons for you to look forward to the upcoming winter. In December, a BETA version of the 3Gloco platform is coming, access to which all professionals will be able to have shortly! And what does it bring?

Personalized website

Luke is an excellent masseur, who has so far gained new customers through the old fashioned manner of mouth to mouth advertising. Massages are somewhat of a luxury activity, people do not decide to have them every day, but this is a business in which Luka would like to do more than just get by. Unfortunately, he has no experience with setting up a website. All offers were up to now, based on his revenue, too pricey, so he can’t wait to present his offer on the personalized sub-site of the 3GLOCO platform. Finally, new customers will be able to find him, and his regulars will be up to date with respect to his availability and news.

There are still many companies that still do not have their own website. The reasons vary but often lack of knowledge and a too high price prevail. Today, while a solid website can be set up with a relatively small amount of financial resources, one still needs to be a little more skillful. Under the 3Gloco platform, each professional will get his own personalized sub-page, where his activity will be presented. You will no longer be a complete stranger online. This will also help those who already have websites because it will represent an extended arm to their current one.

Share a Deal — Share a deal

Electrician Janez Novak has received a larger order to be realized, for which, he however, has too few employees. As it’s only for one week, he can’t employ someone who needs to be trained and immediately needs an experienced worker. Instead, he will send an inquiry to others in the industry. Perhaps one of the other professionals has, at that time, a free worker for whom he pays expenses, but he does not have enough work for. Janez Novak will pay to the company Štromar Ltd., who contacted him, for “renting” two employees for a week.

Providers on the platform will only be indirectly competitive, therefore it will be in the interests of everyone to help with the acquisition of new business and optimization of work processes. Thus enabling, in case of excess or shortage of workers, the exchange or hiring of workers without complications of full employment. Surpluses and needs will be posted daily with a pre-determined price. By doing so, those who do not have enough work at a given moment will reduce the cost of their employees at a time when they are not fully active. Similarly, “Share a deal” represents an opportunity for an individual tenderer to obtain an extra deal or share it with others if he is unable to perform it himself.

Receiving and issuing invoices

It has never been so easy and convenient — and not only that, we will be able to provide this service to you — without additional payment and within the 3GLOCO platform. It’s a simple interface that will allow you to post received invoices on one side and issue invoices on the other. There are indeed many invoicing programs in the world, but given the fact that a large part of the transaction will take place on the platform, you can decide to move, partially or in total, the invoicing process to the platform. In this way, you can have everything in one place. There, we will execute matters on your behalf for services provided and the products sold to us. More importantly, we will also shorten the paths and activities between you and your accountant, as the automated system will allow you to receive your received and issued invoices, calculations, delivery notes and the alike, automatically.

Imagine a printing company, Quick Print Ltd., which has a large number of small customers to whom they need to send a bill right after they deliver the material. The system will be able to be set up in such a way that the driver who delivers the ordered printed material to the customer will enter a confirmation in the mobile application — a signed delivery note, which will simply be taken with the phone, which will be sufficient for the automatic issue of an invoice. The customers will receive their invoices only a few moments after receiving the ordered goods, without the professional having to deal with it.

Liquidity management

Jana is a therapist who issues monthly bills to her customers. She has a customer, a couple who has been coming to her for some time. They need therapy to improve their relationship, and a large part of their problems is also caused by personal finances. She knows that they struggle with the inefficient management of personal finances, so it is difficult for her to personally say that they will have to pay an invoice that has already fallen due. From now on, she no longer needs to deal with this, as the system will automatically send an email. This reduces non-payment, as it is not pleasant for many to come to therapy e.g. a provided service if they still have an unpaid account from the previous meeting, but it will not be uncomfortable for her because the customers will see that the sent email is the responsibility of the system. Although the situation on the market is improving, we are still facing payment indiscipline.

Most people find it uncomfortable to call debtors to pay due bills, even if they are in the right. Sometimes we send them emails, often waiting and waiting for the customer to remember to pay the bill. With a simple tool associated with your payment system, in the event of default, the customer receives an e-mail with a debit note for the payment of overdue liabilities, and you receive this notification as well, in order to keep up-to-date with notifications. With the liquidity management system, you will always know how much money you can expect at a given moment.

The solutions are close and it is up to you whether you take advantage of them, make your business easier and increase profits with the simple 3Gloco platform. If you are interested in more about how to access the beta 3Gloco package, contact us at team@3gloco.com.
