What a missed call costs a small plumbing company in Lakeland
A small plumbing company in Lakeland lives on same-day calls. If the phone rings while you are at a job site, the caller simply tries the next plumber on their list. One missed call can send a paying job to a competitor, and the customer rarely calls back. When you run a crew of one or two technicians, every unanswered call is work you do not invoice.
A normal day with a drain call
Picture the Friday after Thanksgiving. A family in Lakeland near Lakeland Highlands has a kitchen sink backed up after dinner, and the water is coming back up. They call you, but you are on a job in Medulla. Clara answers, asks what is happening, where the problem is and whether the water is still running. If it is still running, she helps them close the shut-off valve under the sink and tells them to stay away from outlets near the water. Then she finds the first open slot in your calendar and reads back the date and address to confirm. You get the alert on your phone right away.
What you get after each call
- A lead saved in AquiVoz's simple built-in CRM, with name, address and reason for the call.
- A summary translated into your language, so you know what happened without listening to the recording.
- A visit booked in your calendar, with date and address confirmed by the customer.
- An immediate notification on your phone, and the option to transfer the call if it is urgent.
