Write for Us Field Service: Field Service Blog Guest Post Guidelines

Most of what turns up for field service write for us is software vendor pages, product announcements and community threads about one big platform's tools. It's written for people buying enterprise systems, not for a plumber with four engineers and a whiteboard. That's the gap. I want the owner who moved from a paper diary to a scheduling app and can say what broke, or the ops manager who worked out how to tell customers when an engineer will turn up.

Small teams with big diaries: that's who reads this blog. My readers run service businesses, agencies and trades, and they've already used my guides to HVAC software and plumbing software. They don't need a sales tour. They need to know what to do on Monday morning when two jobs clash.

60-second field service guest post check

A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:

• Have you run a field team or rolled out job software yourself
• Is the advice useful to a small firm, not only a large enterprise
• Does it compare approaches fairly rather than selling one vendor
• Have you included a real example from a job, a week or a rollout
• Does the opening answer the reader's question in the first two lines

Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

What we publish

• Scheduling and dispatching a small field team
• Quoting and closing out jobs on site without the paperwork pile
• Choosing field service software for a small firm
• Connecting job software to the rest of the business
• Keeping customers updated on arrival times
• Tracking parts, vans and job history
• Rolling out a new job app to engineers who liked paper
• What to do when the day's schedule falls apart

If your post could be published on any field service site with the logo swapped, it is not for us.

What we look for in field service posts

Here's how a field service pitch usually splits between what runs and what doesn't.

Topic	What gets accepted	What gets declined
Scheduling	How a small team plans and dispatches its day	A feature list from one platform
Software choice	Comparing tools against the work a firm does	A vendor page rewritten as a guide
Integration	Connecting job software to calendars and accounts	Jargon with no worked example
Customer updates	Keeping clients informed about arrival times	A press release about a new feature
Parts and vans	Tracking stock, vehicles and job history	A definition of field service

What we don't accept

• Vendor sales pages dressed as guides
• Posts about one enterprise platform only
• Generic definitions of field service
• Rewritten press releases
• Previously published posts republished from another site

What you get

• Your article in front of an engaged audience of business owners, marketers and founders
• One relevant, contextual link back to your own site
• A byline and the credibility of an established, high-traffic blog
• Editorial help to make the piece as strong as it can be before it goes live

How to submit

Send your pitch or draft through the contact form. Include the topic, the one specific problem the post solves, and a line on your first-hand experience with it. One idea per pitch works best. You will hear back on whether it is a fit before you write the full draft.

What a strong field service pitch looks like

A weak pitch says "I'd like to write an article explaining what field service management is and why it matters." A strong one says "I run a heating repair firm with a small team of engineers, and I want to explain how we cut missed appointments by texting arrival windows, what our engineers pushed back on, and how we fixed the clash between the booking calendar and the job app." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

The angles that get accepted fastest

• Moving a field team from paper to an app
• Arrival windows customers believe
• Dispatching around emergencies without wrecking the day
• Job history that saves the next visit
• Getting engineers to trust new software
• Linking your job app to your accounts and diary
• Van stock and parts tracking that doesn't take all evening
• Signs your scheduling has outgrown the whiteboard

Frequently asked questions

Does Lilach Bullock accept field service guest posts?

Yes. Field service guest posts are welcome from service business owners and operations managers who run mobile teams. We publish practical posts on scheduling, job software, customer updates and parts tracking, and decline vendor sales pages and rewritten press releases.

What field service topics do you accept?

Scheduling and dispatch, quoting and closing out jobs on site, choosing and connecting job software, keeping customers informed, and tracking parts, vans and job history. Write for the small firm that's outgrowing its whiteboard.

Do you accept HVAC and plumbing guest posts too?

Yes, but posts about a single trade's techniques suit the HVAC and plumbing pages better. If your post is about running the team and the jobs behind any trade, it belongs here. You'll reach the same editor whichever page you use.

How long should a guest post be?

Most accepted posts run between 1,200 and 2,000 words. Length matters less than usefulness: a tight 1,200 word post with one clear lesson beats a 3,000 word overview every time. Use short paragraphs, clear subheadings and at least one real example.

Can I include a link back to my own site?

One contextual link back to your own site is fine when it is relevant and helps the reader. Posts written purely to build a backlink with no real value for the reader are not published.

Do you accept previously published content?

No. Every submission must be original and not published anywhere else first, including your own blog, Medium, LinkedIn or a guest slot on another site. Republished or lightly reworded content gets declined, and we check before anything goes live.

Can I use AI tools to help write my guest post?

You can use AI to help with research or tidying your draft, but the experience, examples and opinions must be yours. Posts that read like generic AI output, with no first-hand detail, are declined.

Do you accept sponsored or commercial partnerships?

Commercial and partnership enquiries are handled separately from editorial guest posts. If you are a brand or agency wanting to work together rather than pitch an article, say so in the contact form and you will get the right details back.

How long does a decision take?

We aim to come back to you within a few working days. If the pitch is specific and clearly written, with the result in the first line, the decision is much faster.

Do you edit guest posts before they go live?

Yes. Every accepted post gets an editorial pass for clarity, structure and accuracy, and you may be asked for an extra example or a missing number. The aim is to make your piece as useful as it can be, not to change your voice.

Can I pitch more than one idea?

Yes, but send them one at a time or as a short numbered list with one line each. The strongest pitch goes first, and a single clear idea with a real result almost always beats several vague ones.

How do I submit a field service guest post?

Send your pitch through the contact form with the topic, the specific result or lesson you will cover, and a line on your own experience running field teams or service operations. One idea per pitch works best, and you will hear back before you write the full draft.
