What a missed call costs a small plumbing company in Richardson
A missed call rarely comes back. A homeowner with a leak or a clogged drain calls the next plumber on the list, and that plumber is usually the one who picks up. For a small company with one or two techs, each lost job is a visible gap in the month. Richardson homes are often 30 to 40 years old, so emergencies come at odd hours: late at night, on weekends, or while you are working in Garland.
A normal day with Clara
It is a rainy Thursday afternoon. A family near Campbell Road in Richardson sees dirty water coming back up through the shower drain. Nobody answers because you are on a job in Garland. Clara picks up, asks what is happening and where, and whether the water is still rising. If it is an emergency she flags it as urgent, finds the earliest open slot and can transfer the call to you right away. If it is not urgent, she confirms the date and address, and you get an alert with the summary in your language.
What you get after each call
- A visit booked in your calendar, with the date, time and address confirmed with the caller.
- A lead saved in AquiVoz's simple built-in CRM, with the name, verified address and a summary of the problem.
- An instant alert on your phone, with the summary translated into your language.
- A one-tap SMS confirmation sent from your own phone, only when the customer has agreed to it.
