What a missed call costs a small plumbing company in Las Cruces
At a small company the owner usually answers the phone, drives the van and sends the invoice. When you are in a crawl space with wet hands, the phone rings and nobody picks up. The caller leaves no message and simply calls the next plumber on the list. In a city where several companies compete for the same emergency calls, one lost job a day adds up fast.
A normal day with Clara
Picture a rainy afternoon in Las Cruces. A homeowner near Mesilla calls because dirty water is coming back up the shower drain upstairs. You are on a job on the other side of town, near Interstate 10, and cannot answer. Clara picks up, asks what is happening and where, and tells the caller to close the toilet shut-off valve if it is safe to do so. Then she checks your calendar, offers the first open slot, reads the date and address back and asks for confirmation. You get a call with the name, the verified address and a short summary. The customer never knew you were not the one who answered.
What you get after every call
- A lead saved in the simple built-in CRM with the name, verified address and problem.
- A summary translated into the language you choose.
- An immediate phone alert, or a direct transfer if the call is urgent.
- A one-tap SMS confirmation sent from your own phone, only with the customer's consent.
