    The New Flat Rate Introduces 'Section Selection' Option

    Feb. 26, 2021
    Customers can now select individual sections of a price book within their Trade from the leading menu pricing software company’s new product.

    DALTON, Ga. – Feb. 24, 2021 – The New Flat Rate, the first menu-pricing system for home service contractors, is going à la carte. The company’s new Section Selection product allows contractors to select individual sections from the menu pricing system in the HVAC, Equipment, Plumbing or Electrical Trades for a nominal price.

    This new option will allow contractors to select portions of the available Trades for a customized experience. Now with Section Selection, customers can easily begin diversifying and growing their service offerings one section at a time.

    By giving the customer the various level of repairs available, contractors increase the average price of their service ticket while also removing the selling pressure from the technician.

    “Section Selection builds onto our already impressive pricing system by allowing customers to determine what sections of our menu-pricing guide will best serve their business without purchasing the pricing system of an entire trade,” said Rodney Koop, founder and CEO of The New Flat Rate. “For example, many HVAC companies are not licensed to do Plumbing work but they are able to do Water Heater installations. With Section Selection, these HVAC contractors can add Water Heaters to their service offerings and have the power of The New Flat Rate menu to price these new services in the field.”

    The New Flat Rate’s original menu pricing system is market-specific and provides thousands of service, repair and equipment replacement menus. By giving the customer the various level of repairs available, contractors increase the average price of their service ticket while also removing the selling pressure from the technician.

    “Section Selection is a great addition to our portfolio of products,” Koop said. “The ability for home service business owners to choose pieces of new Trades will help introduce our product to a wider range of contractors. Now, potential customers can try The New Flat Rate without having to commit to the entire menu pricing system.” 

    Interested contractors can purchase a section for only $595 or up to three sections for $995. There is an ongoing fee of $75 a month per user which also includes price updates and changes anytime, 24/7 tech support and the license to use the menu pricing system app – which automatically does the selling in the field for each technician.
