Job Management Software for Handyman Gigs That's Not Eating My Margins in North Jersey

I'm a solo handyman out here in north Jersey, doing everything from drywall patches to deck repairs, and I'm fed up with manual scheduling on Google Calendar. Just lost a $1,200 kitchen remodel job last week because I double-booked a faucet install and had to reschedule the client, who bailed. Saw a guy in Handyman Nation Facebook group raving about Jobber for tracking handyman tasks like fixture swaps and trim work, but the $50/month fee sounds steep for my $80k a year operation. Anyone using Housecall Pro or something cheaper that integrates with QuickBooks for invoicing those odd jobs? Watched a Tommy Mello video on scaling handyman services and he pushed ServiceTitan, but that's overkill for my van setup with Milwaukee tools. NGL, if it doesn't sync my route for traffic in this zone 5 mess, I'm out.
