What it is

Many leads arrive at night, on weekends, or between 5 and 9 p.m., when your office is closed or you are on a job. If nobody answers, that roughly $1,200 sales call goes to the next company.

This playbook walks you through setting up a simple after-hours system: what the caller hears, what text goes out, who gets alerted for true emergencies, and how the rest are handled first thing in the morning.

Who it is for

HVAC

Cover no-heat and no-cool calls that come in overnight and on weekends.

Plumbing

Route burst-pipe and backup emergencies to your on-call tech without losing routine leads.

Electrical

Separate urgent safety calls from next-day quote requests.

Roofing

Capture storm-night leak calls and weekend inspection requests.

Sample playbook step

Step 3: Send an after-hours text within 60 seconds of a missed call.
Hi, this is Maria at Ridge Electric. We are closed right now but got your call. Is this an emergency, like sparks or a burning smell? Reply YES and we will call you right away. Otherwise we will reach out first thing in the morning.
No, just a dead outlet
Thanks. We will text you at 8 a.m. to set up a visit. What is your address?

Questions

Do I have to answer the phone at night?

No. The playbook is built so only true emergencies reach your on-call person.

Do I need special software?

No. It works with your existing phone and texting tools. If yours can auto-text on missed calls, you are set.

Is this the same as an AI receptionist?

No. This is a do-it-yourself setup. If you would rather we run it for you, see our Done-For-You setup.
