your customers

We call it like a customer. We check five things:

  • Does it say your shop name?Check
  • Does it know your hours and your area?Check
  • Does it book the job on your calendar?Check
  • Does it send emergencies to you?Check

If it misses one, we fix it and call again.

Why not just

Their software is good. It just doesn't know your shop until someone teaches it.

Our promise

Same promise on the cell phone setup.

Before you pay, you get a written test plan: the calls we'll make and what has to happen on each one. It doesn't go live until it passes every test. If we can't get it to pass within 30 days, you get back everything you paid us for the Starter. The app and your phone plan are billed by those companies, not us, so we can't refund them. We'll help you cancel the app.

Not useful? Get your $199 back.

If your checkup doesn't tell you something useful you didn't already know, email us within 14 days of the day we send it. You decide. We refund the full $199 within 2 business days. Once the $199 is credited toward Setup, this refund ends.

No. 08  Straight answers

Fair
questions.

I just use my cell phone. Can you help?

Yes. You keep your number. We set up an app that answers when you can’t, books the job and texts you. $399 once, plus the app, about $60 to $80 a month.

This is what a missed call looks like. Video: Jake Rasmussen on YouTube
Who pays for the app?

You do, straight to the app company, on your own card. We don’t get a cut. You can cancel it with them.

Do I need the $199 checkup?

Only if you use Jobber, Housecall Pro or other software. Cell phone shops go straight to the $399 setup.

Do I have to buy new software?

No. We use what you already have. If something costs extra, we tell you the price first. You decide.

Jobber says no setup needed. Why pay you?

It turns on fast. But it only knows what someone tells it. We teach it your shop and test it.

Can’t I just do it myself?

Sure. Some owners do. You pay us to get it right the first time, test it, and keep checking it.

Does this replace my office manager?

No. It covers the calls she can’t get to. After hours, lunch, when she’s on another line. She stays in charge.

Will it sound like a robot?

It is an AI voice, and some callers will notice. We set it up to sound like your shop and keep it short.

Not like this. Video: fishinbuddee on YouTube
Who owns it?

You do. It all lives in your account. If you leave us, it stays with you.

Do you promise more jobs?

No. We promise it is set up, tested and working. What happens next depends on your market and your crew.

Are you the best?

Ranked #1 in the world by our moms. Everyone else, we have to earn.

Where are you?

Dallas. We work with shops anywhere in the US.
