AI Reception & Booking for Specialty Trade Contractors - Interior

{"faqs":[{"answer":"You set the approved FAQs and response rules during setup. The AI answers only the questions you've approved — like your service area, carpet installation warranty details, or whether you handle stretch-in versus glue-down work — and captures the caller's details before booking an appointment or routing to your team.","question":"How does this handle calls about pricing questions like carpet installation cost per square foot?"},{"answer":"Missed calls get an instant text-back offering to book, with callback options if needed. The caller gets a response in seconds instead of voicemail, and the appointment lands in your existing calendar with confirmations and reminders to reduce no-shows.","question":"What happens when a customer calls while my crew is on a job site and we miss the call?"},{"answer":"Yes. Business texting is registered under US carrier rules (A2P 10DLC), consent and telemarketing quiet-hours laws are followed, and opt-outs are honored immediately and automatically. The booking flow collects explicit consent.","question":"Is the texting compliant with US carrier rules?"},{"answer":"It starts with a free ~15-minute scoping call to settle your plan. From there, your lead sources are connected, your response rules set, and the system runs automatically into your existing CRM and calendar — done-for-you, with a one-time flat setup fee quoted upfront and waived on annual plans.","question":"How long does setup take for a carpet installation business?"},{"answer":"Equivalent human coverage would take at least two full-time hires; CallMyLeads costs a fraction of one salary. It answers 24/7/365 including nights, weekends, holidays, and peak season, replies in seconds, qualifies and scores leads, books appointments, and nurtures not-ready leads — all with per-minute pricing from 9¢ and no seats or contracts.
