The "Fragmented Client Management" Problem
Struggling to synchronize multi-client PPC and content calendar timelines with creative team availability in a tool designed for generic field services like plumbing or landscaping
Losing track of ad spend approvals, creative asset reviews, and compliance checks across multiple retainer clients due to Jobber's inflexible approval workflows not suited for agency hierarchies
Facing inaccurate invoicing and revenue leakage when billing for variable hourly rates on digital deliverables like comprehensive SEO audits, ongoing social media management, or PPC optimization
Dealing with siloed data across account managers and analytics teams that hinders cross-team collaboration on retainer-based client relationships, performance reporting, and ROI attribution
Hitting scalability limits when onboarding new retainer clients, as Jobber's rigid templates fail to capture agency-specific KPIs like ROI on paid search campaigns, client lifetime value, or engagement rates
Enduring constant disruptions from brittle integrations with core marketing tools like Google Analytics, HubSpot CRM, or SEMrush, leading to delayed insights on campaign performance and lead attribution

What Clients Say
"We switched from Jobber last quarter and it's been a game-changer for our digital agency. Our custom system now auto-schedules social media content reviews around client feedback loops and peak campaign seasons, cutting our coordination time from 10 hours a week to just 2—while eliminating those frustrating subscription fee increases. Total ownership feels truly liberating for our scaling operations."
Sarah Jenkins
Operations Director at PixelForge Digital Agency, a 25-person firm specializing in social media strategy
"Jobber just couldn't handle the nuances of our monthly retainer billing for SEO services and link-building projects. AIQ Labs built exactly what we needed: an AI-powered dashboard that predicts campaign overruns based on keyword performance data and flags them early for adjustments. We've seen a 25% uptick in on-time deliveries and fewer scope creep issues since implementation three months ago."
Mike Rivera
Managing Partner at Digital Edge Marketing, an SEO-focused consultancy with 15+ enterprise clients
"After months of integration headaches with Zapier add-ons to Jobber for our email nurture sequences, we went fully custom. The AI now enriches client data from Google Analytics and HubSpot directly into our workflows, providing instant insights on conversion funnels that help us upsell retainer expansions 15% more effectively—without the constant tool-juggling."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your custom system differ from Jobber for a digital marketing agency?
Jobber excels at basic field service scheduling, but it falls short for agencies managing fluid campaigns and client relationships. Our solution is engineered specifically for you: AI anticipates shifts in project scopes, like extending an SEO audit based on performance data, and integrates natively with marketing tools. You'll own a unified platform that evolves with your needs, cutting out Jobber's rigid templates and monthly fees. Agencies report 35% faster project cycles after switching, with full control over custom fields for deliverables like social media calendars.
What if I already use Jobber integrations with other tools?
We make migration seamless. Our team audits your current Jobber setup, including any Zapier or HubSpot connections, then rebuilds them as robust, owned integrations in your custom system. No data loss—everything transfers securely. For instance, we can enhance your lead scoring from HubSpot with AI that factors in campaign engagement metrics. Post-launch, you'll avoid integration breaks common in off-the-shelf tools, ensuring reliable data flow for client reporting and billing.
How long does it take to build and deploy a custom alternative?
Timelines vary by complexity, but most digital marketing agencies see a fully operational system in 8-12 weeks. We start with a 2-week discovery to map your workflows, followed by iterative development where you test features like automated invoicing early. Unlike waiting on vendor updates, our process delivers a tailored MVP quickly, then refines based on your feedback. One agency went live in under 10 weeks, immediately recouping setup costs through 20% efficiency gains in client management.
Can I really own the system without ongoing subscriptions?
Absolutely—ownership is core to our model. Once built, the system runs on your infrastructure or ours under a one-time fee structure, with optional maintenance if needed. No Jobber-like escalations as you scale. This means unlimited customizations, like adding AI for personalized client outreach, without per-user pricing. Agencies love the freedom: one client saved $8K yearly by ditching multiple subscriptions, redirecting funds to team growth while maintaining full data sovereignty.
Is the system secure for handling client campaign data?
Security is non-negotiable in professional services. We build with enterprise-grade encryption, GDPR/CCPA compliance, and role-based access tailored to agency hierarchies—creative teams see only relevant assets, execs get full analytics. Unlike Jobber's shared cloud risks, your owned system lets you control audits and backups. We've fortified systems for agencies managing high-stakes ad budgets, preventing breaches that could erode client trust. Regular vulnerability scans ensure it stays robust as threats evolve.
What support do you provide after deployment?
We don't just build and vanish. Post-deployment includes 30 days of hands-on training and optimization, plus a 6-month warranty for tweaks. Beyond that, optional retainer support focuses on enhancements, like integrating new AI for trend forecasting in social campaigns. Our clients access a dedicated engineer portal for quick queries. One agency used our ongoing input to add voice AI for client check-ins, boosting satisfaction scores by 28% without disrupting daily operations.
