Electrician CRM

Electrician CRM from first call to final inspection

ECHOPS is an electrician CRM that keeps every lead, walkthrough, quote and permit in one place, from the EV charger inquiry to the panel upgrade that passes inspection.

How it works

How an electrician CRM moves an EV charger lead

  1. The inquiry lands with its sourceWebsite forms, Google Ads lead forms, CallRail calls and forwarded marketplace emails arrive on one board. The board shows how long each new lead has waited, so the oldest gets a call first.
  2. Ask the questions before the visitGive the walkthrough its own appointment type with your questions: where the car parks, the panel’s size, how old the house is. The answers are saved with the appointment.
  3. Send the right electricianAssign estimates shows who’s free and each person’s load. Assigning gives that electrician the lead and the deal.
  4. Quote with the permit priced inPrice devices, circuits, fixtures and labor from your price book, with the permit as its own item. Offer the charger on its own and the charger with a panel upgrade as two options.
  5. Signed, permitted, inspectedThe customer signs online or in person. The project’s stage checks hold the permit and the inspection, and the permit papers and inspection photos go in the Permits folder.
  6. Extras and callbacksThree more recessed lights mid-job? Write a change order, get it signed by link, and it bills itself as its own invoice. A callback gets a service ticket with the warranty answer from the completion date.

Features

What a CRM for electricians keeps track of

An electrical CRM with the phone built in

With Phone & texts, calls ring in the browser, then a cell phone. Recordings, voicemail and AI summaries sit on the lead.

Pricing by device or circuit

Price Book items by the unit, by project size or as an allowance, with the cost behind each line and your markup.

Permits in the quote

Permits are price book items, so every quote that needs one carries it.

Stage checks

Each stage has its checks. Answer them as the job moves, so rough-in and final inspections stay on the list.

Files where the crew finds them

Permits, drawings and photos in folders on the project.

Follow-ups that count

Every call, text and email counts toward the lead’s follow-up grid, and due follow-ups arrive by email each morning.

Buying advice

What to check in an electrical contractor CRM

Electrical work splits into quick calls, residential projects and plan-based bids. The right fit depends on which one pays your bills.

  • How it prices. You want per-device and per-circuit prices you control, with permits and your markup built in.
  • Permits and inspections on the job. The inspection shouldn’t live in someone’s head. Check that the job’s steps include it.
  • Takeoffs. If you bid new construction from plans, you need takeoffs. ECHOPS measures plans for lengths, areas and counts and sends the quantities to the quote.
  • Residential or commercial. ECHOPS is built for residential contractors. Commercial bidding and submittals call for a different kind of tool.
  • Lead speed. EV charger and generator shoppers often ask more than one electrician. Check how quickly a new form reaches a person.
  • Price and seats. Know the monthly cost, the users included and whether payroll costs more.

Straight answers

What electricians ask about and where ECHOPS stands

  • Takeoffs from plans: yes, measured on the plan and sent to the quote.
  • Card payments online or in the field: online, yes. Clients pay invoice links by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or ACH; there’s no card reader, and payments you take elsewhere are logged with only a card’s last 4 digits.
  • Google Local Services and Facebook lead ads: Local Services leads come in on their own now; Facebook lead ads once Meta finishes its app review.
  • App-store apps, offline mode and GPS: ECHOPS runs in the phone’s browser and adds to the home screen; an iPhone app is on the way. There’s no offline mode or GPS tracking.
  • QuickBooks Online: live; clients, jobs, invoices, payments and job costs go to your books on their own. Google Calendar and Outlook sync are live too.
  • Payroll: Company plan only. It prepares pay runs for your payroll provider and doesn’t pay anyone or file taxes.
