$499/mo

Front Desk.

The Front Desk is the full front office for a shop that runs on the owner's phone. Calls answered 24/7 in your shop's name, jobs booked into your calendar or field-service software, missed calls texted back, open estimates followed up on a day 2, 5, and 10 rhythm, and a review request after every finished job. $499 a month flat, no per-minute meter, no contract. One-time $199 setup, done in person.

What is included.

  • Everything in After-Hours Answering, extended to 24/7
  • Jobs booked into your calendar, Jobber, Housecall Pro, or ServiceTitan
  • Missed-call text back on every line
  • Estimate follow-up: second and third touches on open quotes so they stop dying quietly
  • Review request sent after every completed job
  • English and Spanish answering
  • Weekly summary: calls answered, jobs booked, estimates touched
  • Set up in person, tuned with you in the first month

How the work runs.

01

Free missed-call test

We call your line after hours and send the recording. Proof before money, in that order.

02

Setup visit

We map how your shop actually takes work: who is on call, what counts as an emergency, where jobs get booked, what an estimate follow-up should say. One-time $199.

03

First 7 days free

Live on your real line for a week. You see every recording, booking, and follow-up before the first invoice.

04

Monthly, flat

$499 a month. No per-minute or per-call charges, no contract. The weekly summary shows exactly what it did.

Straight answers.

How is this different from After-Hours Answering?

After-Hours covers the phone when you are closed. The Front Desk covers it around the clock and does the office work around the call: booking, estimate follow-up, and review requests.

Can it book into my software?

Yes: Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, or a plain shared calendar. The booking rules are set with you at the setup visit.

What does it not do?

It does not quote prices beyond the ranges you approve, make safety calls, or handle anything you mark human-only at setup. Those go straight to a person, by your rule.

Is there a contract?

No. Month to month. The weekly summary is the retention strategy.

Fifteen minutes, your business details, and a straight answer on whether this pays for itself in your operation. No payment due now; we reply from a real address.
