Hey! It's Mike — I'm on a job right now but saw your missed call. AC out completely or just not cooling right? What area are you in?
Sent · Just now
Completely out — no cold air at all. I'm in Katy, TX. It's 98 degrees!
Got it, sounds like it needs same-day. I can be there by 4pm — does that work?

Until the customer gets your reply
The problem

Every missed call
is a job gone.

01
🚫

You can't answer mid-job

You're physically inside an AC unit. Your hands are full. Your phone rings from an unknown number — probably a new customer wanting a full system replacement. You can't answer. They call the next contractor.

Up to $6,000 per missed call
02
⏱️

They don't wait

By the time you call back 45 minutes later, they've already spoken to someone else. Homeowners call 2–3 contractors. First to respond wins the job. You weren't first.

They go to your competitor
03
🌡️

Summer emergencies won't wait

It's 100°F and someone's AC just died. They need help NOW. If you don't reply in minutes, they're calling the next number on Google. Emergency jobs are your highest-value work — and the easiest to lose.

Emergency = highest value

📋

Maintenance renewals get forgotten

You have dozens of customers with annual tune-up contracts. You forget to follow up. They don't call you — they call whoever texts them first. That repeat business disappears quietly.

Repeat business lost silently
How FrontLead works

Three steps.
Zero missed jobs.

1

You miss a call while on a job

FrontLead detects the missed call on your business number in real time — whether you're on a rooftop, inside a crawl space, or elbow-deep in a furnace. No action required from you.

2

Customer gets your text in 30 seconds

The customer receives a warm, personal text from your number — not a robot, not "your call is important to us." It sounds exactly like you wrote it:

"Hey, it's Mike — I'm finishing up a job right now. Is your AC completely out or just not cooling? What area are you in? I'll call you back shortly."
3

FrontLead captures the job details

It has a natural back-and-forth with the customer — finds out the problem, their location, and urgency. When it has what you need, you get an instant alert on your phone:

📞 New lead: Jennifer in Katy TX — AC completely out, 2-story home, available today after 3pm. Call to confirm.

are saying.

"Booked a full AC replacement in the first week I had it. Customer said she almost called someone else but my text came back so fast she waited. That's a $4,200 job I would've lost."

"Set it up in 10 minutes and haven't touched it since. Now I don't panic when I see a missed call — I know it's already handled. Total game changer for solo operators."

"My customers think I personally texted them every time. One guy told me 'you're so responsive' — I was on a roof when he messaged. He had no idea. Best $89 I spend each month."

FAQ

Quick answers.

Do customers know it's automated?

No. The messages use your name and are written in a natural, conversational tone set up during onboarding. Customers simply think you replied quickly — because as far as they're concerned, you did.

Do I need to change my phone number?

No. You keep your existing number. We give you a FrontLead number that you forward unanswered calls to — takes about 2 minutes to set up call forwarding on any smartphone.

Does the customer need to download anything?

No. It works through standard SMS text messages which every customer already knows how to use. No apps, no logins, zero friction on their end.

What if the customer wants to talk to someone?

FrontLead captures their details and lets them know you'll call back within the hour. It keeps them warm — it never tries to replace your actual conversation with them.

How long does setup take?

Under 5 minutes. You enter your name, business name, trade, and service area. Then set up call forwarding on your phone. That's it — you're live and capturing leads.

Can I cancel anytime?

Absolutely. No contracts, no cancellation fees. To cancel, simply email us at frontleads.co@gmail.com and we'll process it the same day — no questions asked.
