What is a good way to manage paint color schedules and client approvals?
A clear way to manage paint color schedules and client approvals is to list rooms and surfaces, record color codes and finishes, apply samples, get client approval before painting, and order paint by approved quantities.
In Jestor, rooms, colors, and approvals are connected, so walls are painted right the first time.

Colors are chosen verbally. Samples are not approved.
Rooms are painted the wrong color, clients ask for changes, and paint is wasted.

How do managers use the data?
Managers see repaints and paint waste. This shows the value of approvals.
How do you start?
Create the room list for the next project. Then send samples for approval.
What extra care makes a difference?
Natural light changes how colors look, so samples should be seen in place. Recording color codes helps future touch-ups.
How do you measure progress?
Track repaints and paint waste.
Right colors, happy clients, and less waste are the results. Projects finish on time. Painters also stop waiting for decisions on site, and the project manager avoids costly arguments at handover. Clients remember the care taken with their choices and recommend the contractor.
