Calls and the phone
What an AI receptionist does for a Rochester business
Lithium Marketing runs an AI receptionist and builds custom AI automation for Rochester service businesses. The receptionist answers every call, asks the questions you set, books what fits the calendar, texts the caller a next step and transfers the call to the number you choose when your rules call for a person.
The receptionist is $179 a month, with no contract and no setup fee. Custom automation is a separate project, scoped after a call about the workflow, and AI consulting starts by looking at the calls, the follow-up and the systems your team already uses.

The city and the phone
Where the calls come from in Rochester
Rochester includes East Rochester, Gonic and North Rochester, and a caller from Gonic and a caller from East Rochester are both in the city but in different parts of it. East Rochester is near the city's northeastern border, so the service-area answer and the questions on the call should name the places your crews cover.
Strafford County has 51 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors and 71 landscaping services. A service business in either group can get calls about work it does not sell, so the receptionist's rules should keep the wrong job off the calendar and tell the caller what the business does take.

Project trades and repair trades
Two kinds of call, two sets of rules
Strafford County has 30 excavation and site preparation contractors, and 27 new home builders. A builder's caller is asking about a project and an excavator's caller about a site, so the questions, the booking rules and the transfer point should differ.
The same split appears across the county's trades. A garage door call is a repair, a landscaping call is a visit, and the receptionist should know which jobs belong on the calendar and which need a person.

The setup
How the Rochester phone line gets built
We build the line around the calls your team already takes, not a script written for another trade.
List the jobs worth a call
Your team sorts the calls into emergencies, estimates and questions, and names the ones that need a person right away.
Approve every question
We write the questions and the transfer rules with you, and nothing goes live until you sign off on both.
Connect the calendar you already check
We test the connection before launch, so the booking lands on your calendar and not on a second list.
Hear it before your callers do
Call the demo line for the voice and the pace, then test your own line with the questions you approved.
What the AI receptionist does on every call
The same eight parts go into every AI receptionist setup, wherever the business is.
- Answers every call, 24/7
- Qualifies the lead
- Books the appointment
- Answers common questions
- Sends follow-up texts
- Captures every detail
- Transfers to a real person when needed
- Connects to your CRM and calendar
AI on real phones
A garage door site and an after-hours plumbing line
The screenshot is the garage door site Lithium built for Smart Doors LLC; the AI receptionist went onto the company's phones after the site. Next to it, a plumbing company's custom after-hours phone system sorts urgent calls, texts the on-call tech and books the rest.

FAQ
What Rochester owners ask about AI calls
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
Can a caller reach a person when they need one?
A transfer happens when your rules say it should: an emergency, a caller who asks for a person, or a job your team handles itself. The call goes to the number you list, and the receptionist gives the person the details it collected.
How is the receptionist different from custom automation?
The receptionist is the managed phone line that answers, asks your questions, books and transfers. Custom automation is a separate project that connects the work after the call, such as a CRM update or a follow-up text, and it is scoped after a call about that workflow.
Will the receptionist sound like our business?
You choose from 30 natural voices and give the receptionist your services, hours and service area, so the answers sound like your team wrote them. You can hear the voice on the demo line before you choose.
Can it take more than one call at a time?
The receptionist handles unlimited concurrent calls, so a busy morning does not put the next caller on a busy signal. Each caller gets the same questions and the same booking rules.
Do we need a CRM or a specific calendar?
Not always. Bookings can land in a calendar, and a CRM connection is checked before we promise it will work with your software. The setup starts with what you already use.
Free action plan
Call the demo line, then plan your Rochester setup
Before the short video call, send a list of the calls your team takes and the ones that need a person. A co-founder will walk through the demo line with you and map the transfer rules.
