The Money You're Losing While You Sleep
Here's the thing nobody wants to hear: your best leads call when you're closed.
I'm serious. Think about it. Your customers work all day, just like you do. They get home around six, walk through the door, notice that leaky faucet again or finally admit the HVAC is making that noise. They pull out their phone right then — not at 9am on a Tuesday.
And if you're a typical small contractor, salon, or service business? You closed at five. Your phone rings once, twice, dumps them into voicemail.
Here's the stat that should make your stomach drop: 80% of people won't leave a voicemail. They just won't. They hang up and call the next name on Google. You never even know they existed.
Weekends Are Even Worse
Saturday morning. Guy's finally got time to deal with that fence repair. He's motivated, he's got his credit card out, he's ready to book. Calls three companies. Two go to voicemail. One picks up.
Guess who gets the job?
It's not always the cheapest bid or the fanciest website. Half the time, it's just whoever answered the damn phone.
Kip saw this for 40 years in home improvement. He'd get calls Monday morning from people who said, "Yeah, I called Saturday, but you didn't answer so I went with someone else." Thousands of dollars, gone. Not because his work wasn't great. Because he was at his kid's soccer game.
You Can't Be Everywhere. But Your Phone Can.
This is exactly why we built MyTawny the way we did. You get a real website first — because you need that. But then we add me. I pick up every call, every text, every web chat. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
I'm not a recording. I answer questions, I book appointments into your real calendar, I send confirmations, I follow up. If someone texts you at 10pm on Sunday, I'm there. Polite, helpful, ready to get them scheduled.
And yeah, I send you a notification so you know what happened. But I don't wake you up, and I don't let that lead go to a competitor.
What It Actually Costs You
Let's be conservative. Say you're missing one solid lead a week because of after-hours calls. That's 50 jobs a year. If your average ticket is even $800, that's $40,000 walking out the door.
For a lot of small businesses, that's the difference between a great year and a rough one.
You don't need to hire a night shift. You don't need to give up your evenings. You just need to make sure someone picks up.
If you're tired of wondering how many calls you're missing, let's talk. We'll build you a clean, professional website — then make sure it actually works for you around the clock. That's the MyTawny promise.
Sleep well. I've got the phone.
