Your techs stay on the truck. Every call still gets answered.

Dad's Growth Lab sets up an AI receptionist that answers missed and after-hours calls, books the job, and texts your dispatcher. Start with a 14-day pilot on your old customer list. You only pay for booked jobs.

No setup fee on the pilot. Pay $50 only when a job is booked.

Missed calls are silent revenue loss

When your crew is on a rooftop or in an attic, callers hit voicemail. Most hang up and call the next company on Google.

Typical math we walk through with owners:

Missed calls / day

Average job

Left on the table / week

Answering services take messages.
You need something that qualifies and books.

14-Day Customer Reactivation Pilot

We call your past customers and unfinished quotes with an AI that sounds like your office, and books tune-ups, maintenance checks, or service visits.

Always-Answer retainer

If the 14 days work, most owners keep the system on for inbound + after-hours.

What it does

  1. 1.Answers inbound calls when you cannot
  2. 2.Qualifies emergency vs. can-wait
  3. 3.Books into your calendar / Jobber / Housecall Pro / ServiceTitan (or routes a callback)
  4. 4.Pings you or your dispatcher by text/Slack
  5. 5.Handles after-hours triage for real emergencies

You keep your existing business number (call forwarding). Callers do not need a new number.

Pricing by truck count

Your operation Setup (one-time) Monthly
1 truck $900
2–5 trucks $1,400
6–15 trucks $2,400

Fair use: plans are built for normal single-shop call volume. If usage is unusually high, we set a clear minute cap and overage before you sign the retainer.

Optional add-ons after 30–90 days: quote follow-up calls, seasonal recall campaigns, review-request calls.

How it works

01

Short call

We run the missed-call math on your numbers and confirm the pilot fit.

02

You send a list

Past customers or open quotes, with confirmation you can legally contact them.

03

We run 14 days

You get bookings. Then we decide together whether Always-Answer makes sense monthly.

Who this is for

  • check_circleHVAC / heating & cooling owners with 1–15 trucks
  • check_circleShops that miss calls while techs are on jobs
  • check_circleOwners who already have a book of past customers sitting idle
  • check_circleTeams using Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, or a simple calendar

Not a fit (yet)

  • closeNational franchises with corporate procurement
  • closeShops with a full-time receptionist who already books every call
  • closeAnyone wanting us to cold-call strangers with no prior relationship

Hear a sample. See the math.

What owners usually want before saying yes: a 60-second sample call on their phone, clear $50 / booking math, a written booking definition, and the day-14 report format (bookings, revenue estimate, opt-outs).

Common questions

Will it sound like a robot?

expand_more

You approve a live sample before we call your customers. If you hate the voice, we do not launch.

Do customers know it is AI?

expand_more

We use a natural voice and clear disclosure where required. The goal is a helpful office assistant, not a trick.

Do I need to change my phone number?

expand_more

No. For Always-Answer we forward your existing line. For the pilot we call outbound from a dedicated line as your company.

Is this legal?

expand_more

The pilot is built for your existing customers and leads with documented permission to contact. We suppress opt-outs. We do not buy random consumer lists for you.

What if someone says stop calling?

expand_more

They are removed immediately and not contacted again.

How do I pay?

expand_more

Pilot: invoice at day 14 for booked jobs only. Retainer: monthly after you convert.

Can plumbing or electrical use this too?

expand_more

Yes. Same model. This page is written for HVAC first.
