Cal Aron is the point of contact for Inland Fire, a company specializing in fire safety and prevention. Before partnering with ZenTrades, Inland Fire faced significant challenges in managing its business workflow. They relied heavily on a pen-and-paper system, which made it difficult to track important information and communicate with customers effectively.

The challenges

Before ZenFire, [Customer Name] struggled with:

  1. Low Inspection Volume: Completing just 22 inspections a year limited growth potential.
  2. Proposal Delays: Sharing only 17 proposals in a year made it challenging to convert leads into clients efficiently.
  3. Revenue Plateaus: Annual collections were capped at $151,460.46, falling short of growth goals.
  4. Inefficiencies in Workflow: Manual processes and scattered information hindered productivity and accuracy.
They needed a platform that could streamline their inspection and proposal processes, provide actionable insights, and support business growth at scale.

“Our workflow was all over the place,” Cal Aron recalls. “It was hard to keep track of everything when everything was on paper.”

The Solution

In February 2022, [Customer Name] onboarded ZenFire. With the platform’s intuitive features and seamless integration, they began transforming their operations:
  1. Streamlined Workflows: Automating inspection processes and creating professional proposals in a fraction of the time.
  2. Smart Analytics: Leveraging ZenFire’s insights to track performance and identify areas for improvement.
  3. Scalable Operations: Enabling the team to handle significantly higher workloads with the same resources.

“I needed a system that could help me stay in touch with customers and keep everything organized,” he explains. “ZenTrades offered the right tools for that.”
