With text-back
- Customer 6 calls Example Drain Co. at (555) 555-0100. The owner’s phone rings, but he’s under a sink on a job and can’t answer. Missed call.
- Seconds later, Customer 6 gets a text from the business number, in words the owner wrote and approved once:
Hi, this is Example Drain Co. Sorry we missed your call, we’re on a job. What can we help with? Reply here and we’ll get back to you as soon as we’re off the job. Reply STOP to opt out.
- Customer 6 replies:
Garbage disposal is jammed and humming. Can someone come tomorrow?
The owner’s phone shows one notification with the whole thread, and he finishes the job. - The owner replies with one thumb, from the business number. In the interactive demo, you pick which one he sends:
Tomorrow 10 AM to 12 works. What’s the address? If the disposal needs replacing, a new one installed is $345.
orCan I call you at 3? I’m finishing a job until then.
- Customer 6 answers in the same thread. To the first reply:
Great, thanks. 31 Example Ln. See you tomorrow.
To the second:Sure, 3 works. Thanks.

The same in real use

Made up for this demo
Example Drain Co., Customer 6, the owner and every message here. The timing is scripted for this demo. The “without” view is an illustration, not a statistic: we can’t say what any one caller would do.
What stays with you
You write and approve the text once, and can change it any time. It only texts someone who just called, and the first text always says “Reply STOP to opt out.” Every reply after that is yours.
