Conway AI, starting with the phone

What an AI receptionist does for a Conway business

Lithium Marketing does AI consulting before it builds anything: custom automation or an AI receptionist for Conway service businesses. Conway grew 12.7% between 2020 and 2025 and holds 29,267 housing units, so the same service area keeps adding households every year.

The receptionist is the simplest place to start: $179 a month, no contract and no setup fee, answering every call 24/7, booking jobs and transferring to a person when a call needs one. Custom automation is a separate conversation, scoped and quoted after a free call, and it covers the work around the phone, such as follow-up texts, review requests and data moving between your calendar and your CRM.

The Conway market

Who is calling, and who signs off

Faulkner County's owner-occupied share is 62.3%. Conway's owner-occupied share is 45.4%, so rental work is part of the local market and the call may come from a property manager. The receptionist can ask who approves the work and route the call before a technician is booked for a job nobody authorized.

Conway, home to three post-secondary educational institutions, keeps rental housing in the mix. The person who calls about a rental may not be the person who signs the lease, so a knowledge base that answers hours, service area and rental questions in your own words keeps those calls from turning into callbacks.

Trades in Faulkner County

A burst pipe and a remodel estimate

A burst pipe at 10 p.m. is the call that cannot wait for morning, and your rules decide which calls get transferred to the on-call technician and which get booked for the first opening. The receptionist follows those rules at every hour, including the ones after your crew has stopped answering.

Project trades work the other way. Faulkner County is home to 46 new home builders and 16 roofing contractors, and their callers usually want an estimate on the calendar, with the property and the scope captured first. Two sets of call rules, one line.

Set up for you

Getting the Conway line ready for real callers

You approve the rules, the voice and the answers before a real call is answered.

1

Sort the calls by urgency

List a week of calls: the ones that need a person straight away, the ones a booking covers, and the ones a text can close.

2

Pick the voice and write the answers

Choose one of 30 natural voices, then fill the knowledge base with how you answer the phone: what you sell, when you open and where you go.

3

Join the calendar and the phone numbers

We connect the calendar you use and the numbers a transfer should ring, after checking what your current software supports.

4

Keep the answers current

When your hours, prices or service area change, the knowledge base changes with them, so the line gives the same answer your team would.

What the AI receptionist does on every call

The same eight parts go into every AI receptionist setup, wherever the business is.

Proof

Two phone projects, two different scopes

The card covers a custom AI phone system for a plumbing company. After-hours emergencies reach the on-call technician by text, and the non-emergency calls get booked. Smart Doors LLC, the garage door company in the screenshot, had Lithium build its website and put the AI receptionist on its incoming calls.

FAQ

What to settle before the Conway line goes live

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

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

What happens when someone asks for a person?

The call transfers to the number you set. You choose which situations get a transfer, such as an emergency, a current customer or a caller who asks, and everything else is answered and qualified under your rules.

Is $179 a month cheaper than hiring a receptionist?

$3,500 or more a month is what a full-time receptionist costs, and one hire cannot cover nights, weekends and holidays. At $179 a month with no contract and no setup fee, the receptionist answers every call in those hours too.

How long does setup take before the line is live?

A few days, mostly testing. We need your rules and calendar connection first, and you can call the line and change any answer before a customer reaches it.

Can it handle an emergency in the middle of the night?

Your urgency questions run first. Then the rule you wrote for that answer applies: the on-call technician takes it, the first free slot gets booked, or the details go by text. The plumbing card is the same pattern.

What can custom AI automation do beyond the phone?

Beyond the phone, Lithium connects the calendar, CRM and phone system, so a booked call becomes the record, the follow-up text and the review request without retyping. Each project is scoped on a free call, and a typical build runs one to two weeks.
