At Camera Fix, we handle everything from lens recalibrations to complex camera repairs — across a range of brands and models. Over time, one of the biggest challenges wasn’t fixing the gear — it was keeping track of all the jobs, quotes, and communications that go with it.

That’s where MeMate has made a real difference.

Since bringing it into our workshop, we’ve completely streamlined how we run the business — from first inquiry to final invoice.

Here’s how we use it every day.

Tracking Repairs — No More Guesswork

Every repair job gets entered into MeMate as a dedicated work order. That means:

  • We know exactly what’s come in, when, and what’s been done
  • Staff can check job status in seconds
  • All updates and notes stay attached to the job
  • We keep a full work history on each camera or lens we’ve worked on

No more paper tickets. No more searching through inboxes or spreadsheets.

Quoting — Fast and Accurate

Quoting used to be a slow back-and-forth process. Now, we build quotes right inside MeMate.

  • Pre-loaded templates for common repair types
  • Optional add-ons for complex jobs
  • Instant PDF generation and email send
  • Customers can accept with one click

It’s quick, professional, and helps us get approvals faster — especially for time-sensitive work.

Customer Communication — All in One Spot

Whether it’s a quote request, update, or final pickup notice — we keep all customer comms inside the system.

  • No lost emails
  • Staff can see the full message history
  • Attachments (like photos, receipts, or manuals) get saved to the job

Even if someone’s away, we can pick up right where they left off.

Long-Term Service Records

For professional photographers, studios, and repeat customers — having access to their service history is huge.

We can quickly tell:

  • What’s been repaired
  • When it was last serviced
  • Which parts were replaced
  • Warranty timelines and serial numbers

That builds trust — and helps us deliver better service over time.

Why We Chose MeMate

We looked at a few tools before landing on MeMate. What stood out was that it wasn’t just another ticketing app — it was a proper business system, built for real-world service businesses like ours.

Everything we need is in one place:

  • Quotes
  • Jobs
  • Notes
  • Customer history
  • Staff assignments
  • Invoicing
  • And even task scheduling

We’re not switching between five platforms anymore — or relying on memory.

Camera Fix has always focused on precision — and now our systems reflect that too.

If you run a repair or service business and need a better way to stay on top of everything, we highly recommend checking out memate.com.au.

It’s made our workday easier — and our customer experience even better.
