In the garage door industry, every missed call could be a missed job. If you’re not following up fast, your competitors are. The good news? With the right automation, you don’t have to worry about it.
The Problem with Missed Calls
Homeowners looking for service often call the first few results they find. If you miss that call and don’t respond quickly, they move on. Manual callbacks aren’t always fast enough — especially if you’re on a job site.
The Smart Fix: Automated Text-Backs
With automation, you can instantly text back anyone who calls but doesn’t get an answer. That message might say:
“Sorry we missed your call! This is [Your Company Name]. How can we help you today?”
This simple feature often leads to a reply — and a booked job.
Why It Works:
- 90%+ of consumers prefer texting over voicemail
- Fast responses increase trust
- You stay ahead of competitors who don’t follow up
More Than Just Missed Calls
Automation can also:
- Send appointment reminders
- Follow up on estimates
- Reactivate cold leads
Conclusion:
You don’t need to be a tech expert. With ScaleUpGarage, automation is built-in, hands-free, and designed for contractors — so you can keep working while your system keeps booking jobs.
