You were on a roof or under a sink. They rang, you could not answer, and by the time you heard the voicemail they had already called somebody else. This starts the conversation without you.
What changes
A missed call becomes a text thread instead of a customer who rang the next business on the list.
Not a voicemail they have to listen to. A text, while they are still holding the phone and still thinking about the job.
Calls at nine in the evening get the same reply as calls at nine in the morning, without anyone sitting up for them.
The text opens a real conversation, so they can describe the job by message rather than trying you again later.
The thread waits in your inbox. Nothing is lost while you finish what you are doing.
This is the highest-leverage thing on the list and the least impressive to describe. Most enquiries go to whoever responds first — not the cheapest, not the best reviewed, the first. A text that goes out in ten seconds beats a call back in two hours almost every time.
The message is written in your voice, not ours, and it says what you would say: that you are on a job, that you have seen the call, and that you will get back to them. You can change the wording whenever you like.
Missed-call text back is one of sixteen services in one system for $289 a month. No contract, no setup fee.
