The calls it takes

What an AI receptionist does for an Amarillo trade

A call at 9 p.m. on a Sunday should not be the one you find out about on Monday. Lithium Marketing puts an AI receptionist on an Amarillo service business's phone line, so the calls that arrive while the crew is on a roof, under a sink or driving to the next job still get answered.

An average click on “plumber amarillo” costs $25.19, and that money buys a ring, nothing more. If the call rolls to voicemail while a tech is under a sink, the caller moves to the next number and the money is gone.

What the weather changes

Heat, cold snaps and the calls they bring

Amarillo averages 61 days of 90 °F highs or hotter, and winter can bring sudden Arctic air outbreaks. If the first cold snap or the first long hot stretch fills the schedule, the phone line should not be the thing that decides which calls you get.

Randall County lists 61 plumbing and heating contractors, and the same emergency search reaches all of them. A receptionist that answers on the first ring is the difference between being one of the numbers a caller tried and being the one that picked up.

Call rules by trade

Two trades, two rule sheets

Randall County has 30 electrical contractors and 12 pest control companies, and the transfer rules should not be the same for both. If an electrician's calls need a person the same day while a pest company can book a treatment for later in the week, one rule sheet will not fit both.

The knowledge base has to carry those differences: what you fix, the towns you cover, your hours and the questions that come up most. The receptionist repeats what you approved, and anything outside it goes to a person. Work that has to happen after the call, such as a CRM note or a review request, is custom automation, scoped on its own after a free discovery call.

Setup, start to finish

How the phone line gets ready to answer

Your answers go in first, and the line goes live only after you have heard it work.

1

Decide what it should never say

We start with the answers you cannot give on the phone, such as a price for a job nobody has seen, and write the rule that sends those callers to a person.

2

Give it your real answers

The knowledge base starts with the answers your team already gives: what you fix, the towns you cover, your hours and the questions that come up most.

3

Test it with your own calls

You ring the line and play the difficult caller: the price question, the emergency, the person who insists on a human.

4

Keep the answers current

Your team can read the transcripts and change any answer that misfires, then update the knowledge base when prices or services change.

What the AI receptionist does on every call

AI on real phones

A plumbing phone system and a garage door line

A plumbing company uses a custom AI phone system Lithium built to sort the urgent calls, text the on-call tech and book the rest. The screenshot beside it is the Smart Doors LLC garage door site, which came first, with the AI receptionist added to its phones later.

FAQ

Amarillo call questions, before the AI answers

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].

How do you keep it from promising something we cannot deliver?

Every answer comes from what you approved. The limits are part of the setup: no price for a job nobody has seen, no visit time that is not on the calendar, no promise about a part you do not stock. When a caller pushes past those limits, the call goes to a person.

What do we get for $179 a month?

The $179 covers the fully managed receptionist: every call answered, qualified and booked or texted, 24/7, with no contract and no setup fee. A person at the front desk costs $3,500 or more a month.

Can the receptionist hand an emergency to our on-call tech?

Yes, under the rules you set. An emergency rings the on-call number, an existing customer can reach the line you choose, and anything else is booked or texted. You decide which calls count as urgent and who picks them up.

What happens when a caller describes a job we do not do?

The receptionist says what you approved and offers the next step you chose, such as a transfer or a text with your service list. It does not invent a price, promise a visit or pretend the job is yours.

Can it answer a customer who already has a job booked?

Yes, for the questions you load: the arrival window, what to expect and who to call. Anything that needs a look at the job itself gets a message taken or a transfer, because the receptionist should not guess about work it cannot see.
