By the time you call back, the homeowner has already booked the first GC who responded.

An inquiry about an owner draw schedule or a spring build slot shouldn't die in an inbox until 7 a.m."}],"quickWins":["Missed-call text-back: when you're up on a roof or in a crawlspace, every missed call gets an instant text-back offering to book an estimate — the lead never sits in voicemail.","Lead qualification and scoring: automatic questions sort tire-kickers from serious remodel and addition inquiries, so you only spend site-visit time on jobs worth your crew's schedule."],"subheadline":"Every lead gets a fast response and clear next step before interest disappears — 24/7/365.","problemTitle":"The Hidden Costs Killing General Contractor Growth","testimonials":[{"quote":"I'm on job sites all day — I can't pick up every call.
