Frequently Asked Questions

How does Matey know what a good margin is for an electrician?
Matey starts with published industry ranges for electricians, roughly $65 to $85 profit per hour, and refines them with anonymised, aggregated data from electricians on Matey in your city. You see your number, the benchmark and what the gap is worth over a year.
Can Matey help me stop discounting quotes?
Yes. Matey tracks every quote you send, whether it won, and whether you discounted. When a client pushes back on price, Matey drafts a short, confident reply that explains the value without dropping the number. Your Monday brief tells you what discounting cost you last quarter.
Can I track materials costs per job?
Yes. Every line item tracks quantity and unit cost, and purchase orders attach to the job. Your margin verdict uses the real materials spend, not the estimate.
Does Matey work for both residential and commercial electrical?
Yes. Domestic fit-offs, switchboard upgrades and commercial fitouts all get the same margin verdict and the same Monday brief.
