Apex Cooling & Plumbing had been on ServiceTitan for two years — but nobody had ever set it up right. Payroll was still half manual, pricing was guesswork, and the owner was working weekends just to close the books.
Marcus Webb had invested in ServiceTitan expecting it to run his business. Instead, his office manager was exporting timesheets to Excel every Friday, techs were signing off on jobs without recording materials, and nobody could tell which service calls were actually profitable.
Manual timesheet reconciliation was eating 6+ hours every Friday — and still producing errors that led to tech complaints and turnover risk.
Without pricebook discipline, Apex was completing jobs at margin they couldn't measure. Materials were being written off, not billed.
Marcus had dashboards in ServiceTitan he'd never opened. Nobody had shown him what to look at — or why it mattered.

NIFT spent the first two weeks inside Apex’s ServiceTitan account — mapping every broken workflow, every manual workaround, every place money was falling through the cracks. Marcus got a full written audit before a single change was made.
NIFT rebuilt Apex’s pricebook from scratch using real job cost data. Configured mobile signoff for all 12 techs. Set up automated payroll exports that eliminated Friday reconciliation entirely.
After go-live, NIFT stayed on — monthly calls, dashboard reviews, and direct Slack access. When Marcus hired two new techs in month three, onboarding took one afternoon instead of two weeks.
“I’d been on ServiceTitan for two years thinking I was using it. NIFT showed me I hadn’t even started.”
