Took me longer than it should have to connect the dots on this. I was rushing through estimates because I had too many to write and not enough time to write them properly. When you're doing 8 or 9 a week manually the later ones in the week get less attention than the first ones. You start cutting corners on the detail, rounding things down, skipping line items you'd normally include because you just want to get it sent.

The underpricing wasn't intentional. It was fatigue. And it was consistent enough over a few months that when I looked back at the margins on those jobs they were noticeably thinner than they should have been.

Fixing the estimating process fixed the pricing. Not because the numbers changed but because I stopped rushing them.

It seems Jobber has increased their pricing again recently, and for the plan I'm on it's almost an extra $100 a month. It's getting kinda frustrating as it is hard to justify a software costing this much at this point. I get that businesses need to make money but when you start getting into the 300-400+ a month just for basic field management it starts to feel a bit crazy. It is a hassle to switch but at this point I'm seriously considering switching to a cheaper alternative.

For anyone else using Jobber did this recent price increase bother you or am I overreacting here?

Hi ServiceNow Community,

I’m currently learning ServiceNow and working hard to grow my career in this field. I wanted to ask if anyone has:

• Extra certification vouchers/coupons
• Student discounts
• Training passes
• Free exam opportunities
• Any legal way to reduce or skip certification payments

Even guidance or referrals would really help me a lot.

Thank you so much in advance genuinely appreciate this amazing community helping learners grow. 🙏
