On this episode of “The Building Code,” Zach and Charley are chatting with returning guest Emma Dickinson, a senior product manager here at Buildertrend. Emma and her team work on improving the financial features we offer on our platform.
Tune in to the full episode to hear more about Buildertrend’s new, simplified process for paying subs and vendors digitally.
What are the biggest differences with the new process for sending payments?
“The big difference is now builders can pay any of their subs and vendors through the system. Subs don't need to be active in Buildertrend, which is huge. Then the other big difference is it's a lot easier for the subs to receive their money. Before there was a pretty extensive signup process on the subcontractor side, and now they can decide if they want to print a check. It takes two clicks, and they can have a physical check in front of them. So, a lot easier for both sides of the equation.”
What is the initial feedback from subcontractors using the new process?
“I’ve actually talked to a few subs. Just by luck, some of the early adopters’ subs had questions, and I was like, ‘Oh, let me just talk to them directly.’ They literally were bragging about how easy it was. They were like, ‘I just have to open my email, that's it. That's all I have to do. I don't have to drive somewhere to pick up a check. I don't have to do anything.’ That's what we were hoping for. We want to meet you where you're at and have it be a five-second process to get your payment. And now it is.”
