A handyman business runs on trust and timing: the homeowner with a list of repairs calls whoever comes to mind — and whoever looks legitimate when they check. You wear every hat already — technician, scheduler, bookkeeper, marketer — and by the time the tools are packed there's no creative energy left to post. So the photos stay on your phone, the feed goes quiet, and that's exactly when the next customer is deciding whether you're still in business.
SocialKit takes the marketing hat. Batch a month of posts in one evening, schedule them across Google Business, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok, and look active every day — even mid-renovation. No marketing degree required, set up in minutes, and far cheaper than hiring someone to post for you.

Pain points
The three time sinks we hear about most from people doing this job — and exactly how SocialKit handles each one.
You're the technician, the scheduler, the bookkeeper, and the marketer. Social media is the hat that never gets worn — posting feels like a second job at the end of a long workday.
Take one evening a month: write the posts (templates and the AI assistant on every plan help), drop them on the calendar, done. SocialKit publishes on schedule and best-time auto-posting picks the slots, so consistency stops depending on your evening energy.
Your phone holds hundreds of before-and-after shots — the rebuilt deck, the leak that finally stopped — and almost none of them ever make it online, where they'd be doing the selling for you.
Bank photos in the content library as you finish jobs, then turn them into a queue: one post published everywhere at once, with per-platform customization. Your portfolio builds itself one scheduled post at a time.
Work is feast or famine: when you're booked solid you don't market, and a month later the calendar is empty because nobody has seen you for weeks.
A scheduled queue keeps you visible through the busy stretch so leads keep arriving for the slow one. Scheduled posts are unlimited on every plan, so the pipeline-filling never pauses just because you're under a sink.
SocialKit publishes to all 11 platforms on every plan — these are the ones worth prioritizing for this audience.
Homeowners search "handyman near me" and judge by your profile — recent posts and job photos make you the obvious call.
"Anyone know a good handyman?" threads in neighborhood groups are a referral engine; an active page is what converts the recommendation into a booking.
A before-and-after grid is your portfolio — the proof a homeowner scrolls before trusting you with their kitchen.
Quick repair clips and satisfying fixes travel well past your followers, putting your name in front of locals who would never have searched for you.
Before-and-after of the week
Pick the week's most satisfying fix and tell it as a small win: what the homeowner was stuck with, what it looks like now. The celebration templates keep the "before" in the frame — which is exactly what makes a repair post convincing instead of braggy.

Teach the small stuff honestly — the wobbly hinge anyone can fix, the breaker trip that means stop and call a pro. Education posts get saved, and the tradesperson who tells people what not to pay for is the one they hire for everything else.
