What the preset includes

Routing rules

RuleWhat it does
Emergency vs. routineAI classifies whether the request is urgent ("pipe burst," "no heat") or routine ("looking for a quote"). Emergencies get escalated immediately. Messages containing safety-critical keywords like "gas leak," "no power," or "flooding" are automatically escalated to your team.
After-hours captureSends an instant acknowledgment when leads contact you while you're in the field or after hours.
Missed call follow-upTexts back automatically, which is critical when you're on a job site and can't answer the phone.
Booking requestDetects scheduling intent and sends a confirmation with your booking process.
Estimate follow-upTriggers a nurture sequence for leads who requested a quote but haven't booked yet.
Complaint escalationRoutes negative feedback to you immediately with a priority task.

Templates

Pre-built templates for:

  • After-hours acknowledgment
  • Missed call follow-up (includes "we'll call you back" language)
  • Emergency acknowledgment ("we're sending someone")
  • Estimate follow-up sequence
  • Job confirmation
  • Review request

Customize these on the Templates page.

Brand voice

The preset selects the Friendly Neighbor persona: casual, approachable, and enthusiastic. Homeowners respond well to a contractor who sounds reliable and personable.

What to customize first

  1. Templates: update with your business name, phone number, and service area
  2. Business hours: set your actual schedule (if you take emergency calls 24/7, set extended hours and adjust your rules accordingly)
  3. Emergency keywords: review the AI classification to make sure "burst pipe," "no power," "gas leak," and other emergencies for your trade are detected
  4. Estimate follow-up timing: adjust how soon and how often the nurture sequence follows up with quote leads
  5. Test with the test runner: paste real customer messages and verify that emergencies and routine requests are classified correctly

Seasonal considerations

Home services businesses often see seasonal demand shifts. Consider:

  • Summer (HVAC, landscaping): Increase your AI signal limit if volume spikes. Monitor the Plan & Billing meter.
  • Winter (plumbing, heating): Emergency call volume rises. Make sure your emergency routing rule is tuned and tested.
  • Storm season: Expect a surge of "emergency" classified signals. Review your escalation capacity so your team isn't overwhelmed.

You can adjust routing rules seasonally without changing your plan. Enable or disable rules from the Routing Rules page.
