Missed-call text-back for busy local businesses

If you're on a roof, under a sink or in the middle of a haircut, you can't answer the phone. The person calling usually doesn't leave a voicemail. They go back to Google and call the next business on the list.

Missed-call text-back gives that caller a reason to wait for you.

How it works

When you can't answer, the caller automatically gets a short text from your business, such as "Sorry we missed you, how can we help?". Their reply comes to you, so you can book them when you're free instead of losing them to the next business on Google.

We set it up with your current phone, so customers keep calling the number they already know. There's no new number to print on your truck or your business cards.

Who it's for

It's most useful for businesses where the owner or the crew is busy with their hands most of the day:

Want follow-up and reviews too? Full Service adds follow-up sequences, Google Business Profile upkeep, and review requests and replies.

Respectful texting, done properly

The text is a reply to someone who just called you, and it names your business. We keep it short and useful, and anyone who replies STOP won't get further texts. If you'd like to send marketing messages beyond that, we'll talk through consent with you first so you stay on the right side of Canada's anti-spam rules.

Setup

On a free call we'll ask how you take calls today, which phone you use and what you'd like the text to say. We then set everything up and send it to you for approval before it goes live.

What it costs

All prices are in Canadian dollars, plus HST.

Every contract plan also has a no-contract option at a higher price; just ask. Full details are in Pricing.

Common questions

Do I need a new phone number?

No. We set it up with your current phone, so customers keep calling the number they already know.

What does the text say?

Something short from your business, such as "Sorry we missed you, how can we help?". We write it with you and you approve it before it goes live.

Where do the replies go?

What if someone doesn't want texts?

Each text names your business, and anyone who replies STOP won't be texted again.

Is there a minimum term?

Never Miss a Call has a 6-month minimum, then it's month to month. A no-contract option is available at a higher price.
