PhonePick

For electricians

An answering service for electricians who are up a ladder

You do not take a call with a panel open and the power on. So the phone rings out, and the person with no lights in half the house rings somebody who picks up.

Live in about ten minutes. From $29 a month. No contract, no setup fee, cancel any time.

The number that matters

A missed call is worth roughly $100 in expected revenue at typical trade job values — average ticket multiplied by the odds they would have booked.

You can check that against your own week. Below is the same sum with your figures in it.

Do the sum on your own numbers

Set to a typical job for this trade. Change it to whatever is true for you.

Nothing is sent anywhere — the sum happens in your browser. It assumes PhonePick reaches every missed caller, and that they convert like the ones you already speak to. Whether that holds is your call, not ours.

What it does

Three things, on every call

Safe to ignore the phone

It answers while your hands are busy, and the whole conversation is written down for you.

It separates a fault from a quote

No power in the house and a quote for pot lights are not the same call, and they do not get the same answer.

It books around your day

It reads your calendar, so it never offers a slot you are already committed to.

Before you ask

Electricians ask these three

Is it safe to leave the phone while I am working?

That is the point of it. It answers, writes down the whole conversation, and the summary is in your email before you have packed up.

Will it quote for a panel upgrade?

No. It books a look. Anything else would be a number nobody qualified put in your customer's head.

Can it tell a fault from a quote request?

Yes, and they are triaged differently — no power in half a house does not sit behind an enquiry about pot lights.

The next one rings whether you're ready or not

Ten minutes to set up. You keep your number, and you can undo the whole thing with one dialled code.
