The phone problem

Most owners answer the phone the way they always have

By the time you call back, the homeowner has called the next business on the list, and someone there answered.

You're on a job, under a sink, or driving between estimates when the phone rings. You'll call back within the hour.

It isn't for lack of trying. You answer when you can, voicemail takes the rest, and maybe a family member covers the office a few days a week. That works until the busy season, the evening calls, and the Saturday emergencies pile up.

Hiring help is the usual next step, and it's a real commitment: a salary, payroll taxes, training, and one person who covers one shift and needs time off.

An AI Employee covers the hours a person can't. It answers in your business name, knows your services and your service area, and follows the rules you set for every call.

Text messages

Every inquiry lands in your CRM with the caller's name, number, and what they asked for, so nothing depends on someone remembering to write it down.

You decide how each kind of call is handled. Some owners want every new job booked on the spot. Others want emergencies transferred straight to them and everything else captured for a callback.

Your AI Employees follow those rules, and we update them whenever your business changes.

The payroll math

Is it a fit

A good match, and when another option fits better.

This is for you if

  • You run a local service business and the phone rings while you're on a job.
  • Calls come in after hours or on weekends, and some of them are new customers.
  • You've thought about hiring someone to answer the phone and hesitated at the cost.
  • You'd like every inquiry written down and waiting for you, even when you're busy.

Another option may fit better if

  • Your calls need a licensed professional to answer, such as medical triage or legal advice.
  • You get only a handful of calls a month, and you already answer all of them.
Your terms

Hear it before you decide

Listen first

Call 571-620-LIFT and ask for a demo. You'll hear exactly how an AI Employee answers before you commit to anything.

Month to month

AI Employees are month to month. To stop, send written notice at least seven days before your next billing date.

Every missed call is a homeowner who needed help and had your number. An AI Employee answers that call whether it comes in tonight or during your busiest week of the year.

The first step is a two-minute phone call to hear it for yourself.

Questions

Questions owners ask

1

Will my customers know they're talking to AI?

Your AI Employee answers in your business name and speaks naturally. Some states require a business to tell callers they're speaking with AI, or to get consent before recording a call. We set up the greeting and settings you choose, and your business stays responsible for following the rules where you operate.

2

What happens when a caller wants a real person?

You decide. The AI Receptionist can transfer the call to you, or take down the details so you can call back. You can set different rules for emergencies, new jobs, and existing customers.

3

Are there usage charges?

AI voice minutes are unlimited. Phone and text carrier charges are billed at cost to your business's own account, so you pay only for what you use and see every charge.

4

Do I have to change my phone number?

No. We can forward calls from the number you already use, or set up a new number if you'd like one.

5

How long does setup take?

Setup includes carrier registration for business texting, which has a review period set by the carriers. We tell you the expected timing at the start and keep you updated.

6

Can AI Employees work with Local Visibility Growth and my website?

Yes. Local Visibility Growth helps more homeowners find you, your website helps them trust you, and your AI Employees answer when they reach out.

P.S. A receptionist covers one shift. Your AI Employee covers the calls that come in at 7:40 on a Tuesday night, and you can hear one answer today.
