How a call goes

The questions worth asking on every call, whoever picks up:
- Is it no heat, no cooling, or something else?
- Furnace, heat pump or AC, and about how old?
- Is it running at all, or not coming on?
- Is anyone at home at risk from the temperature, like a baby or someone elderly?
- What's the address?
A voicemail greeting that gets you what you need:
"You've reached [Your Company]. If you smell gas, leave the house and call your gas company or 911. If you've got no heat or no cooling, leave your address and we'll call you first. Everything else gets a call back by [time]."
A text to send straight after a missed call:
"Hi, it's [Your Company]. Sorry we missed your call. Is it no heat, no cooling, or a tune-up? Send your address and we'll get back to you."
Why HVAC calls come all at once
The first hot week or the first cold night, everyone's system gets tested at the same time. Your techs are already booked out and the office phone doesn't stop. Those are the days a missed call costs the most, because a customer without heat rings until somebody answers.
What it does on an HVAC call
- Answers every call as your company, the busy mornings included
- Asks what you'd ask: no heat or no cooling, what kind of system, how old
- Checks the address is in your area
- Books the visit on your calendar, and sends the confirmation and reminder
- Texts back anyone who hung up
Bringing customers back
On the Full Growth Program, quotes get a friendly follow-up until they're a yes or a clear no, and regular customers are brought back when they're due.
What a missed call costs you
Say a system replacement brings in $6,000. Two of those a year that booked with whoever answered first is $12,000, before you count the tune-ups that customer would have booked for years after.
The three calls you get
| The call | What Talalevel asks | What happens next |
|---|---|---|
| No heat or no cooling | Furnace or AC, what it's doing, how old, what's the address | Talalevel offers your soonest open times and books the visit, with the urgency in the notes |
| Replacement quote | What system they have, how old, do they own the home | The estimate goes on your calendar, with a confirmation and a reminder |
| Tune-up | What system, and when it was last serviced | The visit is booked on your calendar |
The quiet money is in maintenance
Tune-ups and regulars are what carry an HVAC company through the slow months, and they're the first thing to slip when the phones are busy. On the Full Growth Program, the people who already trust you come back right when they're due, without you keeping track of who's due.
More than the phone
The receptionist answers the calls you already get. Talalevel is a growth firm, so it can also bring in the ones you don't: high-quality HVAC leads, exclusive or shared, ads and outreach, every quote followed up and regulars brought back.
