Every automation we run, and the leak it plugs.
You don't need 20 fancy workflows. You need these five running cleanly. We build them in your CRM, test before launch, and tune them monthly.
Appointment reminders
Customers get a friendly text 24 hours and 2 hours before — easy reply to confirm or reschedule.
- ✓ 24-hour and 2-hour reminder SMS
- ✓ Reply YES to confirm, RESCHEDULE for a new slot
- ✓ Auto-fills cancelled slot from waitlist
- ✓ Cuts no-shows by 30–60% in month one
Review requests
Right after service is marked complete, the system texts a one-tap Google review link in your voice.
- ✓ Post-visit SMS + 3-day follow-up
- ✓ One-tap Google review link (no app needed)
- ✓ Negative feedback routed privately to you
- ✓ 20–60 new reviews in 90 days
Missed-call text-back
The second a caller hangs up without you picking up, we fire a personalized text within 30 seconds.
- ✓ Triggered the moment a call goes unanswered
- ✓ Asks what they need + best callback window
- ✓ Hot replies routed to your phone
- ✓ Recovers 20–40% of missed calls
Lead nurture sequences
Every new lead hits a multi-step flow: instant text, day 1, day 3, day 7, then monthly nurture until they buy or unsubscribe.
- ✓ Triggered the second a lead form submits
- ✓ SMS + email + ringless voicemail in one flow
- ✓ Custom cadence per lead source
- ✓ Captures the 80% most agencies let die

What are the 5 core automations? +
Appointment reminders, review requests, missed-call text-back, multi-step lead nurture, and 24/7 AI receptionist. Each plugs a specific revenue leak — no-shows, missed reviews, missed calls, dead leads, and after-hours missed business.
How much does it cost? +
The Recovery Stack — missed-call text-back, appointment reminders, and review requests — is $99/month with a one-time $297 setup. Adding the 24/7 AI receptionist is $249/month plus $497 setup. Bundled with our full Growth plan all automations are included.
Which automation should I start with? +
It depends on the leak. High no-show rate: reminders. Low Google review count: review requests. Lots of missed calls: missed-call text-back. Most businesses bundle all three in the Recovery Stack — they reinforce each other.
What CRM do you build automations in? +
GoHighLevel by default — it handles SMS, email, calendar, pipelines, and review requests in one place at a price point that works for small businesses. We can also build in HubSpot, Pipedrive, or Close if you already use those.
Do you build niche-specific automations? +
Yes — we have dedicated automation playbooks for nail salons, med spas, roofers, plumbers, HVAC, and general contractors. Each is tuned to the no-show, callback, and review cycles of that industry.
How long does setup take? +
Recovery Stack: 5–7 business days from kickoff. AI Receptionist: 10–14 days because we train it on your services and pricing. We test every flow with real numbers before flipping it live.
