As our society moves toward a mobile-centered culture, the importance of these devices and the information we access with them is becoming central to businesses everywhere. Many have developed separate mobile sites designed to be viewed on the small screens of mobile phones, and some have even moved away from flash-centered designs that are not phone-friendly even on their primary sites.
But website design is not the only change coming over businesses because of these mobile devices.
Companies across all industries have begun issuing mobile devices to their employees to increase productivity and ease of completing work in the field. Work that used to be done “back in the office” or “on my laptop in the truck” can now be done wherever the employee happens to be when the work is ready.
Lone-Star Roof Systems, Texas’ Premier Roofer and professional roofing contractor company, has joined this evolution. Our salesmen are now equipped with iPhones filled with applications to shorten the time between receiving a customer’s information and completing an estimate. Companies like GAF and CertainTeed are also creating applications that will assist in customer roofing education and product explanation. From translators to pitch gauges, weather, and business card-reading “apps,” Lone-Star Roof Systems has provided many tools to help our customers from Dallas to Houston to College Station and all the surrounding areas receive accurate product information and estimates swiftly. From new roofs to roof repair and replacement, these tools will help our roofing company to remain one of the top roofing contractors in each of these areas!
