How it runs

What we build, step by step.

This is the usual shape. Yours gets built around how your team actually does the job.

  1. 01

    Missed calls caught

    Any call that isn't answered, in hours or after, is picked up from your phone system.

  2. 02

    A text within a minute

    From your business number, saying sorry we missed you and asking what they need. It reads like the office wrote it.

  3. 03

    The reply read and sorted

    A burst pipe is flagged as urgent and sent to whoever's on call. A routine job goes into the booking queue with the details attached.

  4. 04

    Voicemails written out

    If they left a message, it's transcribed and added to the enquiry, so nobody has to listen to it twice.

  5. 05

    Matched to the customer record

    Existing customers are matched to their history, so the office knows who's calling before it rings back.

Shown with software we see a lot. If your team uses something else, we build it into that instead.

Built for your business

Same job, different business. We build yours.

Two firms in the same trade rarely run a job the same way. Different software, different steps, different people signing off. We build it for your business, around how your team actually does the job.

  • Your steps

    Built around the order your team already works in, odd exceptions included.

  • Your software

    Runs inside the tools you already pay for, set up the way you use them.

  • Your rules

    Your wording, your limits, your sign-offs. Nothing generic goes out in your name.

You sign off

Your team keeps the final say.

Urgent jobs and anything that sounds like a complaint go to a person by phone. The text never promises an arrival time or a price.

What it's worth

What those hours add up to.

3 hours a week, over 46 working weeks, is 138 hours a year. At $50 an hour, that’s

$6,900

back in the business, every year.

Typical, not promised.

Before and after

The job, before and after.

How it runs today

In a busy week the phone rings while the office is on another line and the techs are on jobs. Voicemails get checked at lunch. By then a lot of those callers have tried someone else.

A month in

Every missed caller hears back in under a minute instead of after lunch. Each week you see how many came in, how many replied and how many you booked, so you know what it's worth.

FAQ

Does missed-call text-back work with our phone system?

Very likely. Most business phone systems, not only Dialpad, can send missed-call alerts or let us read the call log. We check yours on the first call, before anything is quoted.

What if someone texts back at 2am?

A text at 2am gets a reply saying when the office opens, and the enquiry waits at the top of the morning queue. Real emergencies go to your after-hours line.
