How This Automation Works
Job Status Changed to Complete → Before/After Photos Sent to Customer
Job Completion Detected
When a crew member or manager marks a tree service job as complete in your job management system, the automation instantly triggers and captures the job ID, customer information, and completion timestamp.
Photo Retrieval and Validation
The system automatically locates all photos tagged to the job record, separates them into before and after categories based on timestamps or tags, and validates that required documentation exists before proceeding.
Professional Layout Creation
Photos are automatically formatted into a professional side-by-side or sequential comparison layout, with labels clearly identifying before and after images, job details, and your company branding.
Customer Delivery
The formatted photos are sent to the customer via their preferred communication channel (email or SMS) with a personalized completion message, link to full-resolution images, and optional review request.
Archive and Track
All photos and delivery confirmations are automatically archived to the job record with delivery timestamps, creating a permanent audit trail and enabling tracking of customer engagement with the documentation.
How It Works
Tree service companies face the challenge of documenting work quality and maintaining customer trust through visual proof of completed services. This automation eliminates the manual task of collecting, organizing, and sending before/after photos to customers. When a tree service job is marked as complete in your system, this process automatically retrieves associated photos, creates a professional comparison layout, and sends them directly to the customer via email or text message. This instant visual confirmation reduces follow-up inquiries, prevents disputes about work quality, builds customer confidence, and creates shareable content that can generate referrals. The automation maintains a complete photo archive for each job, ensures consistent delivery timing, and provides customers with tangible evidence of the transformation your services delivered to their property.
The Trigger
When a tree service job is marked as complete in your job management system, the automation immediately initiates the photo delivery process, capturing the exact moment work is finished.
The Action
The system retrieves all tagged before and after photos from the job record, formats them into a professional comparison layout, and automatically delivers them to the customer via their preferred communication channel with a personalized message.
