Your inquiries, caught, answered and followed up.

We bring your calls, emails, forms and messages into one CRM, built around how you work. Every new inquiry gets a reply in minutes, and follow-ups go out until they book. Nobody has to remember a thing.

An example of the CRM at work: a missed call from Maria lands as a new inquiry, a text goes back to her automatically a minute later, a follow-up goes out the next day, she replies that Thursday works, and her card moves to Booked as the follow-ups stop.
You'll stop · You'll start

What changes when it's running

Miss three inquiries a week at $500 a job, and that's over $6,000 a month going to whoever answered first.

  • StopFinding inquiries days later

    StartSeeing every inquiry in one place

    Calls, emails, forms and messages land in one list, each with who it's from and what they need.

  • StopCalling back after they've booked someone else

    StartReplying while they're still interested

    A reply in minutes and a text back when you miss a call, so nobody waits until you're free.

  • StopRemembering who to chase

    StartLetting follow-ups send themselves

    Quotes and reminders go out on time, and stop when someone replies.

  • StopGuessing which leads are still live

    StartSeeing every lead's stage at a glance

    Who's new, who's been quoted and who's booked, in one list your whole team can see.

The difference

More customers. Not more software.

  1. 01

    Fix the process, then build the CRM

    We map how inquiries really reach you and what happens next, cut the steps you don't need, then build the CRM around what's left.

  2. 02

    Automatic, not robotic

    Messages go out in your voice and stop the moment someone replies, books or asks for a person. Anything that needs judgment still comes to you.

  3. 03

    Built for you, yours to keep

    Your CRM is built around how you work, connected to the tools you already use and handed over in your name, with notes your team can follow.

What you get

From first inquiry to booked job

Every inquiry, caught

  • Calls, emails, forms and messages gathered into one CRM

Doing it yourself

Why not just sign up for a CRM yourself?

You can. But most CRMs arrive empty, and the setup is the part that makes them work.

Questions

CRM: your questions

Do you set up HubSpot or another off-the-shelf CRM?

No. We build your CRM ourselves, around how your business works, and connect it to the phone, inbox, forms and calendar you already use. You get what you need and nothing you don't, and it's yours to keep.

Will it feel robotic to my customers?

No. Automatic messages are written in your voice, and anything that needs a person still goes to a person.

What happens when a customer replies?

The follow-ups stop, and the conversation goes to whoever looks after that customer, with the history in front of them. Nobody gets a reminder after they've already booked.

Do I need a new phone number?

No. Customers keep calling the number they already know. If you miss a call, they get a text back straight away.

Can you bring over my existing contacts?

Yes. We move your contacts across from spreadsheets, your inbox or an old tool, so everyone is in one place from day one.

How much of my time will it take?

Not much. A short call at the start so we understand how inquiries reach you, a look at it before launch, and a handover call with your team. We do the rest.

What if something breaks?

We test everything with your real inquiries before launch, and fix anything that goes wrong in the first 30 days for free. After that, our optional care plan covers fixes, or you can look after it yourself.

Are there running costs after launch?

The CRM is yours to keep. After launch you can add our monthly care plan for hosting and fixes, and cancel any time. Its price is in your quote, so you know it before you agree to anything. Rather not? We hand you all of its code, and you host it yourself.

Ready to answer every inquiry?

Tell us how inquiries reach you now and we'll say how we'd bring them into one place, with the price in writing. We reply within a business day.

What can we help with?

A few lines is plenty: calls, emails, forms or DMs, and where things slip through.
