The biggest leak in local marketing is not the ad. It is the gap between when someone raises their hand and when someone calls them back. A homeowner who fills out a form at nine at night has usually contacted two other companies by nine the next morning.
We connect every lead source to an automatic text and email that goes out within about a minute, day or night. It thanks them, answers the one or two questions they always ask, and offers a time to talk.
This is not a robot pretending to be your receptionist. It is a first handshake that holds the conversation until a real person on your team picks it up, and it works while your crew is on a roof or under a sink.
For companies that want the phone answered as well, the page on AI receptionist covers what happens next.
