The Problem

GARAGE DOOR COMPANIES
LOSE EMERGENCY CALLS

You're losing customers every day to competitors who answer faster. Emergency calls come at 2 AM, frustrated customers hang up after two rings, and your techs can't keep up with scheduling chaos. There's a better way.

You Miss Emergency Calls After Hours

A homeowner's garage door breaks at midnight, they call for emergency service, and get voicemail. By the time you check messages in the morning, they've already called your competitor who answered immediately and scheduled the repair.

The Cost
$450/call
Lost per emergency service

Your Office Is Drowning in Calls

While you're on-site installing a new door, five more calls come in. Repair estimates, installation quotes, spring replacement questions—you can't answer the phone while working. Customers get frustrated waiting, and you lose jobs to companies that picked up.

The Cost
60+ calls/day
Per garage door company

Appointments No-Show and You Lose Them Forever

You clear your technician's schedule, drive across town, and show up for an installation estimate. The customer isn't home. You send one follow-up text that gets ignored. That's it—they're gone. No second chance, no recovery, just wasted time and another lost sale.
