What a missed call costs a small Rochester HVAC company
When a Rochester homeowner calls and nobody answers, they rarely leave a message. They call the next company on their list and the job goes with them. For a small heating and air conditioning business, every unanswered call is a visit you never book and a customer who may not call back.
A Sunday in August in Rochester
It is a Sunday afternoon in August, the temperature is above 90 degrees, and the AC in a house near Irondequoit is blowing warm air. There is a baby inside. The owner is in Brighton on another install, hands full, and the phone rings. Clara answers, asks what is wrong, what kind of system it is and whether a baby is at home, and flags the call as urgent. She offers the earliest open slot and can transfer the call to you on the spot. When you reach the office Monday, the lead is saved with the summary and the visit is confirmed.
