Why answering in the caller's language matters in Pompano Beach

In Pompano Beach, 24.9% of residents are Hispanic and 20.9% of people speak Spanish at home. Many calls about a broken AC will come in Spanish, and a caller who feels understood from the first moment is more likely to confirm a visit. Clara opens in English, asks which language the caller prefers, and continues in Spanish, English or Portuguese. Most importantly, no call goes unanswered.

A normal day: a July Friday at 9 pm

It is a Friday in July, 9 pm, and the caller lives near Lighthouse Point. She says water is dripping from the indoor AC unit and has already stained the hallway ceiling. Clara asks what is wrong, what kind of system it is, roughly how old it is, and whether a baby, an elderly person or someone sick is at home. If there is a risk of damage or mold, she flags the call as urgent and looks for the earliest free slot in your calendar. She notifies you on the phone right away and can transfer the call if you ask. By the next morning the visit is confirmed, with date, time and address read back to the customer.
