We’re excited to welcome Vintage Blacktop Co. as BlueSuite’s official apparel partner. As part of our partnership, BlueSuite becomes Vintage Blacktop’s official customer relationship management (CRM) and field service management (FSM) partner.
The idea is simple: introduce our communities to two businesses that support people in the trades in different ways. Vintage Blacktop creates trade-inspired apparel and shares the stories of people working in the industry. BlueSuite helps home service businesses manage their customers, jobs, schedules, quotes, and invoices.
Founded by Ali Williams, Vintage Blacktop grew out of her experience working in business development for an asphalt paving contractor. That work gave her a close look at the people behind the projects and the stories that deserve more attention.
She built Vintage Blacktop around that respect for the trades, with a particular interest in representation, women in the industry, and the next generation finding their place in it. You can read more about that story on Vintage Blacktop’s About page.
Their shop offers apparel and accessories inspired by trade culture, including tees, hats, and styles for men and women. If you take pride in the work you do, their collections are worth a look.
The apparel is one reason to visit. The people featured on the site are another.
Through its industry interviews and articles, Vintage Blacktop gives people room to talk about their careers, lessons learned, leadership, and experiences in the trades. It’s a chance to hear from the people doing the work and learn how they got there.
At BlueSuite, we spend our time thinking about what happens around the job: keeping customer details organized, getting estimates out, coordinating a crew, and making sure invoices don’t get lost in the shuffle. Those everyday tasks matter to the people building a service business.
Vintage Blacktop brings attention to the people and culture behind that work. We like what they’re building, and we want more of our community to know about it.
This partnership gives us a way to introduce Vintage Blacktop’s apparel and stories to BlueSuite’s community, while introducing BlueSuite’s business tools to service professionals in theirs. We’ll be sharing more through our websites and social channels.
Visit Vintage Blacktop Co. to browse the apparel, read the interviews, and learn more about the brand. We’re glad to have them as a partner and look forward to sharing their work with you.
