If you're a gas engineer looking to increase repeat jobs, earn more from each customer, and make your business more efficient — Smart Service Stickers from Workbelt are an easy win.
These durable QR code stickers are placed directly on or near the appliances you service — like boilers or gas cookers — and help you stay connected with customers long after the initial visit.
At just 50p per sticker, they're one of the most cost-effective ways to grow your business and fill your calendar with return jobs.
What Are Smart Service Stickers?
Smart Service Stickers are scannable QR code labels designed for service professionals. When scanned by your customer, they link to a dedicated online asset page, where the customer can:
- •View the appliance's full service history
- •Rebook you in one tap
- •Receive automated annual service reminders
- •Contact you by phone, WhatsApp or email
- •Access a secure customer portal
- •Refer you to friends and neighbours
Each sticker connects to your Workbelt account, where you manage the job records and reminders. It's a simple but powerful way to keep your name visible and make repeat bookings effortless.
Why They're Ideal for Gas Engineers
As a gas engineer, boiler servicing is a reliable, repeatable source of income. But many customers forget who serviced their boiler last year — and end up calling someone else.
Smart Service Stickers solve that problem by:
- ✅Keeping your name on the boiler
- ✅Helping customers rebook you quickly
- ✅Automating annual reminders
- ✅Building a full digital service history
You stay front-of-mind without chasing or relying on business cards and fridge magnets.
Practical Use: Step-by-Step Guide
Here's how to use Smart Service Stickers effectively on every boiler job:
🔧 Stick It Where It Matters
After completing a boiler service, place a Smart Service Sticker on the inside of the boiler casing or somewhere clearly visible near the unit.
📲 Register the Job
Use the Workbelt app or web dashboard to log:
- •The appliance details
- •Date of service
- •Work carried out
- •Any notes or safety warnings
- •When the next service is due
This information is saved to the sticker's digital page — accessible only to you and the customer.
🔁 Enable Reminders
Workbelt will send automatic SMS and email reminders when the boiler service is due again. The customer can rebook you directly — no searching online, no missed opportunities.
🧾 Secure Repeat Business
When the customer scans the sticker later (or follows the reminder link), they'll see all the service info, your contact details, and a quick way to rebook. That's another job secured.
How This Grows Your Income
Let's look at how 50p per customer can multiply your earnings:
| Scenario | Result |
|---|---|
| One boiler job = 1 sticker | 50p spent |
| Rebooking next year | £80–£120 earned |
| Over 5 years | £400–£600 from one client |
| 50 customers with stickers | 25-35 rebook yearly = £2,500+ return |
And that doesn't include the referrals you get from customers who scan the sticker to recommend you to neighbours or family.
Even if only 1 in 10 stickers leads to a rebooking, the return is still well worth it. But with reminders and direct contact built in, most engineers see a much higher rebooking rate.
What's in It for the Customer?
People love convenience — and Smart Service Stickers give them exactly that:
- ✔️Reminders when their boiler needs servicing
- ✔️Instant access to service records
- ✔️Confidence it's the same engineer every time
- ✔️Easy contact options — no hunting for your card
- ✔️Peace of mind with a clear history for warranties or property sales
It's a win-win: you look more professional, and they get better service.
Ongoing Access via Subscription
Smart Service Stickers are powered by the Workbelt platform. Once you're set up, you'll continue to use the system to:
- •Track your jobs
- •Log service history
- •Send reminders
- •Accept bookings
- •Use a built-in calendar and quoting tools
There's a small ongoing cost tied to your usage, managed through a simple subscription — but considering the value from even one repeat job, it quickly pays for itself.
