AI Receptionist for Plumbers in Visalia, California

A normal day in Visalia

It is the Friday after Thanksgiving. A family near Mooney Boulevard has just finished dinner, and the kitchen drain backs up. The homeowner calls your number, but you are in Exeter working on another job. Before, that call went to voicemail. Now Clara answers, asks what is happening, where the problem is and whether water is still running. She checks your calendar, reads back the date and the address, and asks for confirmation. You get a notice on your phone right away. If the caller is from Farmersville or Tulare, Clara records that too and saves the summary in your CRM.
