The #1 Time Sheet Tracking App For Painting Contractors

marketing painting contractor business coach

Tracking painter’s time sheets have always been a pain in the past.

From getting guys to turn them in, if they don’t end up losing or damaging them, to filling them out properly.

Oh and don’t forget the fact that they always land on that magical total of 40 hours every single week.

About 2 years ago I started using this app for tracking time sheets and it is literally a game-changer, but first I’m going to share with you a time this app saved my butt…

We were on a time and material (T&M) project for a homeowner that was difficult to bid due to unknown circumstances.

The homeowner was aware of the situation as we kept them in the loop the entire time, but what was difficult with this project was that we were working on other parts of the home on a straight bid price.

A deposit was collected and a second payment was accepted and we finished the project with rave reviews by the homeowner…

Then the rubber hit the Road…

The homeowner gasped when they received the final invoice as if they were reading their own obituary.

One minute they were raving fans, and then the next, just like David Copperfield with his disappearing of the statue of liberty, Poof! They were nowhere to be found!

After the dust cleared I was able to have a conversation with them regarding the invoice.

The Issue was the T&M charges. Although the material was easy to verify and explain the time was their issue.

The explanation and the proof that this app provided saved my butt.

Tsheets is the top app for painting contractors hands down and is the time tracking software that allows our employees to clock in on their mobile device and separate tasks with a tap of their finger.

We were able to separate projects, separate tasks within the projects, and T&M positions of prep, finish, specific rooms, and the list goes on.

Now get this, we are able to get a GPS stamp when employees clock in.

We presented all the information to the homeowner and put their doubts to bed.

In fact, they thanked us for being so detailed with our hours and paperwork.

The ROI of being able to track each and every hour worked is priceless!

The nominal cost when compared to the ROI it provides is:

1 user is FREE

Each additional user is $4 plus a base fee of $16.00.

100 plus users $4 per user with a $80 base fee.

About the Author

As many of you know, my journey has been one of grit, grace, and transformation. At 19, I was a high school dropout, single father, and struggling paint contractor in Michigan. I later moved to Florida, where I faced both personal and professional hardships. With nothing left to lose, I turned to prayer—and was blessed with a relentless hunger to learn. I devoured books, attended seminars, and discovered better ways to streamline and grow my business—even through the Great Recession (and yes, I did hit the wife lottery along the way!). In 2014, I published How To Double Your Business and later sold the painting business, launching a new chapter: coaching others to grow their businesses. For the past 10 years, I’ve dedicated myself to helping business owners scale through the DYB System, while also drawing from frameworks like EOS, Scaling Up, and The Four Disciplines of Execution. Yet something was still missing—something more adaptive, integrated, and complete. Then I found Pinnacle. After months of research and interviews with other Guides, I joined Pinnacle. Their tools and strategies have exceeded every expectation. Now, as a Pinnacle Business Guide, I help leadership teams implement a custom-tailored operating system that draws from the best in the industry—but flexes with your unique business. It’s a dynamic, proven approach to achieve clarity, momentum, and lasting growth. I’m no longer taking on any more 1:1 coaching clients… Instead, I now specialize in working with visionary business owners who are ready to get their leadership teams aligned—around a clear vision, a focused strategy, and an actionable execution plan. With the tools and process I now have as a Pinnacle Business Guide, I help turn alignment into momentum, and momentum into results. If your business is growing—but your leadership team isn’t fully rowing in the same direction—let’s talk.
