You pay the same for the person pricing it out as the one actually building. This answers every new lead right away in your name, asks what you'd ask about the job and the timing, and books the serious ones straight onto your calendar. The rest get handled politely without eating your Saturday.
Here's the whole thing on one lead, from the form fill to the slot on your calendar, with you nowhere near your phone.
Scope, timeline, budget range. The same questions you run on every enquiry before you'd get in the truck, asked the minute the lead lands instead of three days later.
Real jobs land as booked estimates with a summary of who they are and what they want. Everyone else still gets a proper answer, they just don't take your Saturday.
A website enquiry gets answered right away. So does a call you couldn't pick up on site, it gets a text straight back and runs through the same questions.
Your minimum job size, your service area, your questions. What counts as a real lead for you is the rule it follows, and I keep tuning it after it goes live.
If it saves you two wasted estimate visits a month and catches one real job you'd have missed, that's the whole thing paid for.
We'll run your actual numbers when we set it up
Read the thread above, that's the kind of message it sends, word for word. Before anything goes live, you approve every question it asks and the voice it writes in. If a message doesn't sound like your company, it doesn't ship.
You don't need to be. Nothing to install, no new software to learn. You keep your website, your email, your calendar. I build it, run it, and maintain it. Your only job is showing up to the estimates it books.
No. An autoresponder fires the same "thanks, we'll be in touch" at everyone and tells you nothing. This one asks about the project, the timeline, and the budget first, so the ones ready to go get the first slot on your calendar and you know what every other enquiry actually is before you spend a morning on it. The fast reply is the easy part. The sorting is the point.
I'm new and I need results I can show. That's the catch. I build it on your site for nothing, you cover the running cost of the tools at about $40 a month and none of that comes to me, and if it works at the end of two weeks all I ask is a short testimonial. If it doesn't work you shut it off and owe nothing, and I've lost the time, not you.
Then one message to me turns it off, and your site goes back to exactly how it was, same day. Nothing goes live until you've approved how it sounds, you can read every message it sends, and it runs alongside what you already have instead of replacing anything. No contract, no cancellation hoops, and your leads stay yours. You get a written support agreement and a real person who answers. The worst case is your week looks exactly like it does now.
Everything above is it running on a demo business. This is the part where it runs on yours, on your real leads, and you decide afterwards.
I'm setting this up free for a few remodelers to build out my first case studies. Here's the whole deal, no fine print.
I can only run a few of these properly at once, so when the slots are full this goes back to paid.
You approve every word before it goes live, you see every message it sends, and one message turns it off. Worst case, your week stays exactly as it is.
