The math, for a business missing 10 calls a week at $400 average ticket: 10 calls × 25% close × $400 = $1,000/week. $52,000/year. Recoverable. The text-back pays for itself in the first week.
We set up monitoring on your existing line. No new number for customers. Your phone still rings. The system only fires when a call goes unanswered.
Three templates — business hours, after hours, weekends — in your voice. Each includes a booking link, acknowledgment, and clear next step. You approve before anything goes live.
Every missed call triggers an instant text from your real business number. Replies come back into a unified inbox. Bookings flow into your calendar. That's it.
Business Hours
"Hey, this is Sarah from Northland Plumbing — sorry we missed your call. We're with another customer. What can we help you with? Or book a same-day slot here: [link]"
After Hours
"Hey, this is Northland Plumbing's after-hours line. If it's an emergency reply EMERGENCY and we'll dispatch. Otherwise reply with what you need and we'll be in touch by 8am tomorrow."
Weekend
"Hi, this is Northland Plumbing. We're closed until Monday but I saw your call. If it's an emergency reply EMERGENCY for our on-call tech. Otherwise pick a Monday slot here: [link]"
The missed call text-back is the gateway. Once it's working, almost every client adds more.
SMS reminders 24h and 2h before every appointment. Reduces no-shows by 40–60%. Auto-reschedule links if they can't make it.
Thank-you text fires the moment a job is closed. Followed by a review request (linked to the Review System). Then a "time for your next service?" win-back.
Missed appointment? Automated SMS asks what happened and offers one-tap reschedule. Recovers roughly half of no-shows.
Customers who haven't been back in 6, 12, or 24 months get re-engagement messages. Industry-specific sequences that feel helpful, not spammy.
Custom alerts: high-value lead came in, on-call tech needs dispatching, 1-star review, payment failed. You stop checking dashboards and start being notified.
One-tap birthday discounts, service anniversary reminders, seasonal check-ins. 10–20x ROI in most tests for salons, auto shops, and restaurants.
A missed call text-back is the single fastest, highest-ROI automation a local business can install. Most clients pay for the entire stack from the leads this one feature recovers.
