Turn every home service lead into a booked job — automatically

CRMSalesCommunicationSchedulingAutomationLead Generation

DripJobs is an all-in-one CRM built specifically for home service contractors — painters, roofers, landscapers, and more. It combines lead management, pipeline tracking, on-site estimate scheduling, proposals, invoicing, two-way texting, and automated drip follow-ups in a single platform. Connect it to Actionist and your agents can create leads from any source, send chat messages at every pipeline milestone, fire downstream accounting and scheduling workflows on proposal acceptance or project completion, and keep the crew dispatch schedule current — all without manual CRM entry between jobs.

Eliminates manual work. Agents eliminate the manual cycles of lead intake and routing, appointment confirmation calls, post-job invoicing, crew scheduling, and proposal follow-up — all high-repetition tasks that occur multiple times every working day in a home service business.

Instant lead response and rep routing from any source

When a new lead lands in DripJobs from any source, the agent reads the job type and zip code, sends a personalised chat message to the prospect within about a minute, routes the lead to the correct territory rep in Slack, and logs it to the sales tracker in Google Sheets. The entire intake process runs without human involvement so the first human touch is the actual sales call.

What you do manually today

With Actionist

What your agent runs for you

  • Sales
    120 min / week
    Manual lead intake and routing

    The office manager receives the lead notification, manually enters or verifies the record in DripJobs, then texts or calls the rep to assign it — taking 10–20 minutes and losing the first-response window.

    Sales Agent
    0 min
    Agent routes and responds to every lead within a minute

    When a new lead arrives in DripJobs, the agent sends a personalised chat, routes the deal to the correct territory rep in Slack, and logs source attribution — before any human knows the lead exists.

  • Marketing
    90 min / week
    Manual form-to-CRM data entry

    A team member checks email or a form inbox, manually copies the contact details into DripJobs, creates the deal, and schedules the estimate — 8–12 minutes per submission, with entries often batched and delayed.

    Marketing Agent
    0 min
    Agent converts every form submission into a pipeline deal automatically

    When a booking form fires, the agent creates the on-site estimate and deal in DripJobs, sends the customer an acknowledgement, and alerts the estimator — all within about a minute.

  • Customer Support
    75 min / week
    Manual appointment confirmation calls

    The front desk calls or texts each customer the morning of their appointment to confirm, taking 2–3 minutes per customer and tying up the phone during the busiest intake window of the day.

    Customer Support Agent
    0 min
    Agent sends appointment confirmations and updates without staff involvement

    The agent reads today's DripJobs appointments every morning and sends each customer a confirmation message with arrival window and contact details — before the first crew departs.

  • Human Resources
    45 min / week
    Manual crew scheduling review

    The operations manager manually reviews the appointment list and cross-references it against the crew availability sheet — a 30–45 minute process that often happens too late to fix Monday conflicts.

    Human Resources Agent
    0 min
    Agent maps crew capacity against the appointment calendar every Monday

    The HR Agent reads all DripJobs appointments for the week and calculates crew utilisation before 9 AM, flagging over- and under-capacity days to the operations lead for rebalancing.

  • Finance
    80 min / week
    Manual post-job invoicing

    The office manager checks the DripJobs completion list at the end of the day, manually creates each invoice in QuickBooks, and emails or texts the payment link — often delayed by 24–48 hours.

    Finance Agent
    0 min
    Agent creates QuickBooks invoice automatically at project completion

    When the Project Completed trigger fires in DripJobs, the agent creates the invoice in QuickBooks and sends the customer a payment link via chat — invoice delivered before the crew leaves the site.

  • Operations
    60 min / week
    Manual weekly dispatch schedule

    The operations lead manually reviews the appointment list in DripJobs, assigns crew to each job, maps drive routes, and sends the schedule to each crew lead — a process that takes 45–60 minutes every Monday morning.

    Operations Agent
    0 min
    Agent builds the crew dispatch schedule automatically every Monday morning

    The Operations Agent reads all DripJobs appointments, groups them by geographic zone to minimise drive time, and posts the full week's crew schedule to Slack before the first job starts.

  • Legal
    30 min / week
    Manual contract and evidence logging

    The admin team exports proposal data from DripJobs weekly, manually logs acceptance dates to the contracts spreadsheet, and files screenshots of proposal views as evidence — hours of work that is often incomplete when a dispute arises.

    Legal Agent
    0 min
    Agent logs contract and evidence records automatically at each proposal milestone

    When proposals are accepted or viewed in DripJobs, the agent logs the event with a timestamp to the contracts register and evidence file — a complete paper trail built without any manual entry.

FAQs

Questions about DripJobs + Actionist

How does Actionist connect to DripJobs?
Go to the Apps tab, find DripJobs, and click Connect. Choose the API key method — open DripJobs and navigate to Company Settings → Integrations → Zapier, then copy your unique company API key and paste it into Actionist. The agent runs a test call to confirm the handshake before any actions run.
What permissions does Actionist need in my DripJobs account?
Actionist uses your DripJobs company API key, which inherits the permissions of your account. The key grants access to create and update leads, appointments, estimates, and deals in your pipeline. Only account admins or users with integration permissions in DripJobs can generate the key. Actionist never stores your raw key in plain text — it's encrypted at rest.
Does Actionist work with DripJobs for all home service trades, not just painters?
Yes. DripJobs is built for home service contractors — painters, roofers, landscapers, HVAC technicians, and more. Actionist agents work across any trade you run through DripJobs. The triggers (New Lead Created, Deal Stage Changed, Proposal Accepted, Project Completed) and actions (Create Lead, Create On-Site Estimate, Send Chat Message, Update Appointment) apply to any job type flowing through your pipeline.
How does the DripJobs API key connection actually work inside Actionist?
DripJobs' API key connects via Zapier's infrastructure. On the Actionist side, the agent uses the API key to authenticate directly. The most common patterns agents run: triggering follow-up sequences when a lead goes cold in the pipeline (Deal Stage Changed), creating a lead and estimate appointment in a single step when a form submission arrives (Create On-Site Estimate & Deal), and logging project-completion data to accounting tools when a job closes (Project Completed trigger).
Can Actionist fire automations when a deal moves to a new stage in DripJobs?
Yes. The Deal Stage Changed trigger fires within about a minute of the stage update in DripJobs, so you can chain downstream actions: send a chat message to the lead, update a Google Sheet tracker, or create a follow-up task — all without touching DripJobs again. This is the highest-ROI trigger for most home service businesses because stage changes are the natural handoff points in the sales cycle.
What can Actionist do automatically when a DripJobs proposal is accepted?
When a Proposal Accepted trigger fires in DripJobs, Actionist can: send a welcome chat message to the customer, create a project kick-off record in a project management tool, notify the field crew via Slack, and schedule the job in Google Calendar — all within a single automated sequence. The agent turns a manual multi-step process into a single event-driven response that completes in under two minutes.
Can Actionist automatically create DripJobs leads from web forms or ad platforms?
Yes. Use the Create On-Site Estimate & Deal action to ingest leads from any web form, ad platform (Facebook, Google Ads), or lead marketplace (Thumbtack, Angi) directly into DripJobs without manual data entry. The action creates both the contact record and the associated deal in the correct pipeline stage in one call, so the lead is ready for the sales team the moment it arrives.
Can Actionist read invoice or payment data from DripJobs?
DripJobs does not currently expose a native billing or invoice API for Actionist to read payment status directly. For revenue tracking, the recommended pattern is to use the Project Completed trigger to fire the downstream accounting step: the agent passes job data to QuickBooks Online or Stripe to create the invoice or record the payment, keeping financial records in sync without manual entry after project close.
