Clovis AI, answered

The Clovis phone line, answered every hour

Fresno County has 229 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors, and a caller who reaches voicemail can dial the next one. Lithium Marketing runs an AI receptionist for Clovis service businesses that answers every call, follows the rules you set and either books the job or transfers the caller to a person.

“Pest control clovis” draws about 390 searches a month, and “garage door repair clovis” about 140. When a caller needs help the same day, the line has to answer before they try another company.

The Clovis market

Older homes and the questions they bring

Fresno County holds 344,894 housing units, and the median county home dates to 1982. If your crews work on older houses, load the answers your team gives about the systems those houses have, so a caller hears the same words a technician would use.

The knowledge base carries the answers your team approves, so a caller hears your service area, your hours and the jobs you take, and the notes from the call give your staff the details they need to book it. Custom automation beyond the phone is scoped separately after a discovery call.

Trades in Fresno County

Different trades, different call rules

Fresno County lists 9 septic tank services and 19 carpet and upholstery cleaners, two trades with a short list of services, where the rules can be simple: answer, ask the address and the problem, book the visit, and transfer anything unusual to a person.

The county’s 145 new home builders need the opposite script: collect the project address, the stage and the budget question, then book the conversation with the right person.

Set up for you

Setting the line up in Clovis

Nothing goes live until your team has heard the answers and approved the handoffs.

1

List the calls that reach you

We list the calls that reach you now and sort them: which need a person, which can be booked and which can wait for a text back.

2

Write the answers in your words

Your services, hours and service area go in, along with the answers your staff gives most often, and you choose one of 30 voices.

3

Join the calendar and the phone

Bookings go on the calendar you name, and a transfer rings the number you choose.

4

Listen back with your team

You hear the recordings and read the transcripts alongside us, then we change whatever rule gave a caller the wrong answer.

Proof

The AI phone work on two service businesses

Lithium’s AI receptionist answers the phones at Smart Doors LLC, a garage door company, taking the call, qualifying the job and either booking it or sending the caller to a person. The card beside it shows a custom AI phone system built for a plumbing company, a different kind of project: one business, one dispatch process, and a scope agreed on a discovery call. The receptionist is the product described above; the plumbing build shows what custom automation can cover.

FAQ

What Clovis owners ask about the AI phone

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

Will callers be stuck talking to a machine?

Callers can reach a person whenever you want them to. A transfer list you approve sends emergencies, existing customers and anyone who asks to a person, while the rest get qualified, booked or texted back.

What does it cost, and is there a contract?

There’s no contract and no setup fee: the receptionist is $179 a month, and you can cancel whenever you want. A custom AI automation project is separate and quoted after a free discovery call.

How fast can it answer our calls?

The line is usually live within days of getting your rules, services and calendar access. You call it yourself and hear the answers before any customer does, and a rule can change whenever your hours or services do.

Can the receptionist answer questions about our work?

It answers from the knowledge base your team approves: services, hours, service area and the questions your staff hears most. It does not diagnose a fault or promise a price, and a call that needs judgment transfers to a person.

What can custom automation handle beyond the phone?

It handles the work after the call. Lithium can update the CRM, text a caller who did not book, send a review request and connect the calendar, phone system and a spreadsheet, with the scope set on a free discovery call. A custom build usually takes one to two weeks.
