What a missed call costs a small HVAC company in Amarillo

A missed call from a customer with a dead air conditioner rarely waits for a callback. In August, that person calls the next company in the search results and you never hear from them. For a small heating and air business with one or two technicians, each unanswered call is a job that goes to a competitor. In Amarillo, many calls also come in the afternoon, when your tech is in someone's attic and cannot pick up.

A normal day during a heat wave

Picture a heat wave in the middle of the week in Amarillo. A house near Western Street has had its AC running since morning, but the rooms will not cool down. The homeowner calls at 9 p.m., after your office is closed. Clara answers, asks what is wrong, what type of system it is and roughly how old it is. If a baby or an older person is at home, she flags the call as urgent. Then she checks the open slots, reads back the date and address and asks the customer to confirm. When you wake up, the visit is already in your calendar with a summary of the call. The customer knows someone has taken their case. If the caller lives out toward Canyon or another neighborhood, Clara logs the area and the problem the same way.

What you get after every call

• A booked visit in your calendar, with the date, time and address confirmed.
• A call summary in your language, saved in the simple built-in CRM.
• An immediate phone notice to you, or a transfer of the call if it is urgent.
• A one-tap confirmation text sent from your own phone, only with the customer's consent.
