FAQ
Can it handle commercial enquiries like pub chimney sweeps?
Yes. We customise the script to capture commercial details — pub name, address, number of flues, any Health & Safety requirements. Commercial clients expect fast callbacks, and AI ensures you never miss one.
What if I want to handle the call myself?
Callers press 1 at any time to be transferred directly to your mobile. The AI introduces the caller and their enquiry before connecting so you can decide whether to take the call.
What about repeat customers?
If you keep a customer list in your dashboard, the AI can recognise returning callers and skip the qualification questions — confirming the booking details and noting any changes to the property since the last visit.
