Common problems

Where service businesses typically lose leads.

Missed calls going cold

A missed call from a new customer during a job is easy to overlook — and most people will not leave a voicemail or wait for a callback.

Quote follow-up depends on memory

Sending a quote and waiting is not a strategy. Most leads need at least one follow-up to convert — and that follow-up rarely gets sent.

No central place for all leads

Calls, WhatsApp messages, email enquiries and form submissions all end up in different places — making it easy to lose track.

No visibility into lead sources

Without tracking, you cannot know whether your website, paid ads or Google Business Profile is generating the most work.

Missed call flow

What happens when a call is missed.

1

Customer calls — unanswered

Instant SMS sent automatically

"Sorry we missed your call. Reply with your question or use the link below to submit an enquiry."
