{"faqs":[{"answer":"The moment a call slips past you, the system sends an instant text-back offering a callback or online booking. The caller gets a response in seconds instead of voicemail, and if they book, the appointment lands on your calendar with confirmations and reminders — so you finish the job you're on without losing the next one.","question":"How does missed call text-back work when I'm mid-job on a car lockout?"},{"answer":"Yes — and that's by design. Callers are always told they're talking to AI, and every caller can reach a human, continue by text, or book online. Clear disclosure builds trust in an emergency instead of hiding behind a fake human voice.","question":"Will callers know they're talking to AI when they need emergency auto locksmith help?"},{"answer":"Yes. Inbound calls are answered 24/7/365, including nights, weekends, holidays, and peak season. Nothing goes to voicemail. That's coverage that would take at least two full-time hires to match with humans — at a fraction of one salary.","question":"Can it handle after-hours locked keys in car calls on weekends and holidays?"},{"answer":"Setup starts with a free ~15-minute scoping call where we connect your phone lines, forms, ads, and chat, and set your response rules. Pricing is per-minute with no seats: metered at 21¢/min, managed at 14¢/min plus from $149/mo, or bulk at 9¢/min minutes. There's a one-time flat setup fee quoted upfront and waived on annual plans. No contract — monthly, cancel anytime.","question":"How fast can I get set up, and what does it cost?"},{"answer":"Aggregators keep the customer relationship and take a percentage off every ticket. Answering services charge per seat and still miss overflow calls. CallMyLeads gives you all-channel answering, text-back, qualification, booking with reminders, and nurture — on per-minute pricing where only minutes actually handling leads are billed, with spam never billed. Your leads, your data, and your calendar stay yours.","question":"Why not just use an answering service or pay an aggregator for car locksmith leads?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Connect your lead sources","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"In a free ~15-minute scoping call, we connect your phone lines, website forms, ads, and chat into one response system and quote your flat setup fee upfront — waived on annual plans."},{"step":"2","title":"Set your response rules","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"You decide the first message, qualification questions, what counts as a qualified car lockout or key replacement job, and when to route a caller straight to your team."},{"step":"3","title":"Every call gets answered and booked","gradient":"from-green-500 to-emerald-500","description":"Missed calls get an instant text-back with an offer to book.
