For Okanagan Contractors on the Tools

Your customers keep saying "never heard back." Let's fix that in 48 hours.

Every missed call gets a text back in 60 seconds. Every quote gets chased until it's a yes or a no. Set up inside the tools you already pay for, by a guy who spent 20 years on the tools himself.

7 am or 7 pm slots

It's 2:10 on a Tuesday. You're under a sink in Glenmore. The phone buzzes in your back pocket. "Unknown — Kelowna."

You let it go. You'll call back at the truck.

Two more come in before you're done. By the time you're back in the seat there are four missed calls, two voicemails you haven't listened to, and you remember maybe one of them.

Tonight at the kitchen table you'll open Jobber, look at the six quotes you sent last week, and think: two said yes. The other four are probably thinking about it.

They're not thinking about it. They called the next guy on Google.

I know because I did the same thing for 20 years.

Here's what nobody in the trades says out loud:

You know you're losing jobs. You just don't know how many, and you'd rather not find out.

You're paying for Jobber or Housecall Pro and using it like a fancy notepad.

You can't answer the phone with your hands in a drain. But a receptionist is $4,000 a month for someone who can't quote a thing.

That $9,000 job in Peachland? You sent the quote. You never heard back. You should have called. You know you should have called.

And every single one of those is a job that went to whoever got back to them first.

You've probably tried some of this already.

The answering service.They took messages. The messages sat in your email. You cancelled after four months.

Jobber's built-in follow-up.You turned it on once. It sounded like a robot. A customer made a joke about it. You turned it off.

The marketing agency.$1,500 a month. You got a logo, a Facebook page with 80 followers, and a report full of words. The phone didn't ring any more than before.

Getting your wife to call leads back.Worked for three weeks. Not fair to her anyway.

That "missed call text back" software a buddy mentioned.You looked it up. Fourteen features, $297 a month, a US phone number. You closed the tab.

Being more disciplined.Twice a year. Lasts a week.

None of that failed because you're lazy. It failed because it was either built by someone who's never run a crew, or it needed you to become an office guy. You're not an office guy. That's the whole point.

The Lead Leak Fix

Not more leads. Not a dashboard. Not another login.

Just this: the leads you already get stop leaking.

I set it up. You approve the wording. It runs on its own. Two days, start to finish, and the only thing you do is one 30-minute call.

What's inside

Missed-call text-back.

Any call that goes to voicemail gets a text within 60 seconds. In your words. Something like:

"Hey, it's Mike at Baran Plumbing — on a job, saw your call. Text me what you need and I'll get back to you within the hour."

Nobody thinks it's a robot, because it isn't written like one. You sign off on every line before it goes live.

Quote follow-up, five touches over ten days.

Sent a quote? The chase starts automatically. Day 1: did it come through. Day 3: any questions. Day 6: want to get you on the schedule. Day 8: a smaller-scope option if budget's the issue. Day 10: a clean close. Text and email, written like a tradesman wrote them, because one did.

Website form response.

Someone fills out the contact form your nephew built in 2021? They get a reply in under a minute, and you get a text on your phone. No more finding a lead from June in October.

The Friday sheet.

One page, every Friday. Missed calls. Texts sent. Replies. Quotes chased. Quotes closed. That's how you know it's working. No dashboard. No login.

A 10-minute video walkthrough.

Where everything lives, how to pause it when you're at the lake, and where the kill switch is.

Built inside what you already have.

On Jobber or Housecall Pro? It lives there. Just a cell phone? I set up a $20/month business line that forwards — you keep your number.

The Full Front Desk

$1,497 setup, then $197/month

Everything in the Fix, plus a website chat that qualifies and books, your Google Business Profile cleaned up (photos, services, review-request texts after each job), and a 20-minute call once a month to read the numbers together. For 8+ truck outfits that want the whole front end handled.

Why it's a no-brainer:One recovered service call covers three months. One recovered bathroom pays for the year. You spend more on your fuel card. And the alternative — keep leaking — costs you a few grand a week and you don't even get a receipt for it.

First three contractors:$150 for the Text-Back or $297 for the full Fix, in exchange for an honest before-and-after I can show the next guy. Once those three are gone, that's gone.

Our 30-Day Guarantee

Show Me the Texts

If 30 days of Friday sheets don't show at least one missed call or dead quote that turned into a real conversation with a real customer, I refund your setup fee. All of it. I shut it off, and you keep the scripts.

I can offer that because it fires automatically. Unless your phone never rings, it's going to catch something in the first month.

Frequently asked questions

I've been burned by marketing guys before.

Me too — I hired one. I'm not a marketing guy. I'm a Red Seal carpenter who ran crews for 20 years, quoted the jobs, chased the change orders, and lost the Peachland job too. I build websites and automations now because I got tired of watching tradesmen get sold logos.

I don't have time for a setup call.

It's 30 minutes, once. I book them at 7 am or 7 pm because I know what your day looks like. You'll never need a second one.

Won't my customers think the texts are a robot?

Only if they sound like one. Every message is written in your words, first name only, no exclamation marks, and you approve every line before it goes live. If you've got a way of saying things, we use it.

$97 a month, forever?

Cancel any time, keep the scripts. But do the math first: one recovered $400 service call pays for four months.

I already have Jobber. Doesn't it do this?

It can. Nobody set it up right, and the default wording is why you turned it off. I set it up inside Jobber so you're not paying for anything new.

What if a text goes to the wrong person — a supplier, my mother-in-law?

Business-hours rules and a contact exclusion list. Your regulars and your suppliers never get an auto-text. And there's a kill switch you can hit from your phone.

Can you just send me some info?

This page is the info. But here's better proof: I'll call your business line this week. If a human picks up, you don't need me. If it goes to voicemail, I'll show you exactly what your customer just experienced.

How do I know it's working?

The Friday sheet. One page. If the numbers are zero, the guarantee kicks in.

I don't want more work, I can't staff it.

Then this isn't for you, and I'd rather tell you that now. This is for outfits with three-plus trucks who are already turning away calls they don't know about.

Do you do this outside the Okanagan?

Yes, everything's remote. But I started here because I know these towns and I can drive to your shop if it comes to that.

The quotes you send this fall and don't chase are the jobs you won't have in April.

I do five setups a week, by hand. When this week's slots are gone, the next one is next week.

Book your 30-minute setup call

7 am or 7 pm. Pick the one that isn't in the middle of a job.

Or text me at +1 (236) 970-1265: "Call me at 2:10."

I'll show you what your customers hear.
