# The tradesperson week

URL: https://gocutline.com/templates/electrician-week/

A weekly schedule for electricians, plumbers and other trades: jobs from 07:00 on weekdays, quotes and invoices on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and Saturday morning for planning next week.

## Why it works
- **Quotes go out within two days,** which alone wins jobs.
- **Invoices have a fixed slot,** so you get paid on time.
- **Saturday planning** means Monday starts with the materials on the van.

## Make it yours
- Busy with emergencies? Keep a morning free for them on one day.
- Do your books at the same time each month: see [how to price your work](https://gocutline.com/playbooks/price-your-freelance-work/).

## Questions

**When should tradespeople do their paperwork?**
At a fixed time, two evenings a week. Waiting for a quiet day means waiting for ever.
