Picture this… ⤵️
You’re with a client, or your family, or maybe on a rooftop finishing a job. The phone buzzes in your pocket.
You know it’s a lead, and good money on the other side of answering.
But you just can’t get to it.
Not right now.
Maybe in 30 minutes.
Or an hour.
Or even tomorrow.
By then, that lead has already called 3 of your competitors.
You know the game.
The first to reply usually gets the lead.
And you just lost it.
How can you ever grow your business and get out of the fulfillment when you can’t even reply to a lead in time?
The answer is sales automation.
Notice I did not say AI.
For a local business, having a human touch is your extreme unfair advantage.
But not having a simple follow up system that automatically texts and calls new leads when you can’t pick up the phone is like letting low hanging fruit (easy customers) rot on the ground.
Because a new lead is like a melting ice cube, the longer we let it sit the more it melts and quickly goes away.
It’s actually VERY easy to set up simple workflows that text back missed calls, and reply to every lead within 2 minutes, even if you’re on vacation.
