Recovery Protocols

Every bid, every call, every follow-up, handled.

For every protocol: how it works today, how it runs once automated, and what changes.

Missed-call text-back

PriorityRecovers Revenue
Manual
You are on a ladder or running a saw, so the call rings out. The caller hits voicemail, hangs up, and dials the next contractor on their list.
Automated
The second a call goes unanswered, the system texts the caller back automatically: "Sorry I missed you, I'm on a job site. What do you need a hand with?" The conversation starts before they call anyone else.
Result
85%
About 85% of callers who do not reach you will not call back, and a missed call to a home service business is worth roughly $100 to $200 each. An instant text recovers the ones you would have lost. Source

Five-minute lead response

PriorityHigh ROI
Manual
A web form or Angi lead lands in your inbox. You see it that evening, or the next morning, and by then they have already booked three other estimates.
Automated
Every new lead gets an instant reply and a text within seconds, and you get a push notification with their name and job. You are first in line on every lead without watching your phone all day.
Result
78%
78% of customers hire the first company that responds, and replying within 5 minutes makes you 21 times more likely to qualify the lead than waiting 30 minutes. Source

Online estimate booking

High ROIRecovers Revenue
Manual
Every estimate request means phone tag. Homeowners call during the day while you are working, you call back after hours, and half never pick up.
Automated
A booking link lets homeowners pick an estimate slot themselves, day or night, synced to your calendar. The slot is held, the address is captured, and you both get a reminder.
Result
70%
70% of people would book online if given the option, versus 22% who prefer the phone, and 40% of online bookings happen outside business hours when your phone is off. Source

Automated bid follow-up

Recovers RevenueSaves Hours
Manual
You send a bid, hear nothing, and get busy on current jobs. The quote sits in their inbox while a contractor who followed up twice gets the signature.
Automated
After a bid goes out, a timed sequence of texts and emails checks in for you: a nudge at day two, a question at day five, a last call at day ten. It stops the moment they reply.
Result
More signed bids
Most quotes need several touches to close, but the majority of contractors stop after one. A sequence that runs on its own turns dead quotes into signed jobs while you stay on the tools.

Job-status update texts

Saves HoursQuick Win
Manual
Clients text and call asking when the crew is coming, where the materials are, and what is next. You stop work to answer the same questions over and over.
Automated
Clients get automatic texts at each stage: crew on the way, materials delivered, inspection passed, job complete. They stay informed and your phone stops buzzing mid-task.
Result
98% read
Texts hit a 98% open rate and are read within 90 seconds, versus 20% for email, so a status text actually lands. Fewer check-in calls means fewer interruptions on the job. Source

Review requests after completion

High ROIQuick Win
Manual
You finish a great job, mean to ask for a Google review, and forget once the next job starts. Months pass and your competitor has triple the reviews.
Automated
When a job is marked complete, the system texts a direct review link a day later, when the work is fresh and the client is happy. One tap and they are on your Google page.
Result
82% more revenue
Businesses with more reviews than average bring in 82% more annual revenue, and 83% of people who are asked to leave a review go ahead and write one. The ask is what is missing. Source

Invoice and payment reminders

Recovers RevenueSaves Hours
Manual
The invoice goes out and you wait. Chasing payment means awkward calls you keep putting off, so cash sits in other people's accounts for months.
Automated
Invoices send automatically at job completion, then polite reminders go out on their own at 7, 14, and 30 days until the bill is paid. No awkward calls from you.
Result
Get paid faster
About half of US invoices are paid late, dragging on roughly 8 days past the due date on average. Automatic text and email reminders close that gap and keep cash flowing. Source

Subcontractor and crew reminders

Saves HoursQuick Win
Manual
You spend evenings texting subs and crew to confirm who is where tomorrow. Someone forgets, shows up to the wrong site, and the schedule slips a day.
Automated
Subs and crew get automatic reminders the day before with the address, time, and scope, plus a tap to confirm. You see who is locked in without sending a single text.
Result
38% fewer no-shows
Automated text reminders cut no-shows by about 38%. Fewer missed mornings means fewer days lost waiting on a crew that forgot the start time. Source

Lead-source tracking

High ROISaves Hours
Manual
You spend on Google, yard signs, Angi, and the truck wrap, but you have no idea which one brings jobs. So you guess, and keep paying for ads that do nothing.
Automated
Every lead is tagged with where it came from automatically, so you see which channels turn into signed jobs and which just drain the budget. You spend where the work actually comes from.
Result
Stop wasting ad spend
Most small businesses cannot tie marketing dollars to revenue, so budget gets poured into channels that never produced a job. Tracking the source per lead ends the guesswork.

Change-order documentation

Recovers RevenuePriority
Manual
A client asks for a change on site, you agree verbally and keep working, and at invoice time they dispute the extra cost. You eat it to keep the peace.
Automated
Every change is logged with photos, scope, and price, then texted for approval before work starts. You have a timestamped yes in writing before anyone lifts a tool.
Result
$31B in rework
Poor communication and bad project information drive $31.3 billion in avoidable rework a year, and nearly half of all rework traces back to it. Documented change orders protect your margin and your relationship. Source

Quote and database reactivation

Recovers RevenueQuick Win
Manual
Last year's quotes that went quiet sit in a folder, forgotten. That homeowner who put off a remodel is ready now, but you never circled back.
Automated
The system reaches back out to old quotes and past clients on a schedule, with a seasonal check-in or a quiet reminder you are available. Old leads cost nothing to win again.
Result
20% more jobs
Reworking a dormant database is one of the highest-return things you can do, with reactivation campaigns shown to lift monthly sales by up to 20%. The leads are already there. Source

What other owners are actually saying.

Real frustrations pulled from owner communities and trade discussions. The pain is universal.

I lose count of how many jobs I miss because I can't answer the phone with a nail gun in my hand. By the time I call back they've already hired someone else.
r/Construction
Sent a $40k bid three weeks ago, never heard back. Found out today they went with a guy who just happened to call them the next morning. I never followed up. Lesson learned.
r/Construction
Spending an hour every night texting my subs to confirm tomorrow's schedule. One forgets every week and a whole day gets blown waiting on a no-show.
Contractor forum
Clients won't stop texting me asking when we'll be there and what's next. I can't get any actual work done because I'm answering the same questions all day.
r/HVAC
Did a perfect kitchen remodel, totally forgot to ask for a review, and now the company down the street has 200 Google reviews and I've got 11. Killing me on search.
