For electricians

An answering service for electricians that picks up every call you miss

Cakewalk answers the calls you can't, in your business's name, 24 hours a day, and texts you who called and what they need, so the job doesn't go to the next electrician on Google.

The calls electricians can't afford to miss

For electricians, the calls that matter most are outages, breakers that keep tripping, panel upgrades and EV chargers, and they peak around windstorms and outages. Those are exactly the times you're already on a job.

Across 70 million calls, Invoca found only about half of callers to home-services businesses reach a person. The rest ring the next number.

What it does

• Answers in your business's name, using your services and service area
• Takes the caller's name, number, address and what they need, and texts it to you
• Screens out sales calls and robocalls
• Never quotes a price or books a job without your yes
• Unlimited calls, no per-minute charges

How it's set up

You get a local number on the spot and dial one forwarding code on the phone your customers ring. Your phone still rings first; the assistant only gets the calls you miss. Another code turns it off.

Questions

Will customers know it's AI?

It's an AI assistant and says so if asked, and it never pretends to be you. Most callers just want someone to take the details and get the job booked.
