Telstra Business – Mobile Broadband Solutions for Tradesmen

Tradies do a lot of paperwork in the field, only to enter information again on their pc back at the office. It’s time better spent servicing customers and generating new business.

Using a Tablet with Telstra Mobile Broadband® powered by the Next G® network, staff in the field can:

get real-time access to inventory/parts availability
order new stock online whilst away from the office

There are applications that allow on-the-job forms to be completed electronically and signed off by clients/builders. This reduces the amount of time spent handling documents as well as increasing productivity in the field. And with the Telstra Next G® network, which covers 99% of Australia’s population, you could fix your customers’ problems in more places.
