The phone, answered

A Tyler phone line that never rings out

When a Tyler customer calls with something gone wrong and nobody picks up, the next name on the list gets the job. “Pest control tyler” is searched 480 times a month, so that demand needs a phone line that catches it. Lithium Marketing runs an AI receptionist that answers every call, qualifies the job, books it into your calendar or hands it to a person under rules you set.

The receptionist sits in front of the calendar. It answers 24/7, asks the questions you have written, books the job, texts the caller the details and passes an emergency to the on-call tech. No one has to listen to a voicemail the next morning and guess whether it was urgent.

The Tyler market

Who calls, and what they need first

Tyler has 38,505 occupied homes, split between owners and renters. A renter may call the landlord first, while an owner may call you, so one question about the property sends each caller down the right path.

The city is the seat of Smith County and it sits inside a ring of smaller towns: Whitehouse, Lindale, Bullard, Flint and Chandler among them. A receptionist that knows which of those towns the crew covers, and what to do with a call from outside them, keeps a wasted trip out of the schedule.

Trades in Smith County

Urgent calls and project calls

In Smith County, pest control is 19 companies, and a pest call has to be answered today; a remodeler is one of 43, and a remodel call can be booked for next week. The receptionist’s rules should reflect that difference.

Plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors number 95 in Smith County. For those trades an urgent call can land at any hour, so the urgent ones go to the on-call tech by text and everything else gets booked into the first open slot on the calendar.

Set up for you

What the setup covers

Every rule gets your sign-off before the line takes a live call.

1

List what the calls are

Bring the last month of calls and we sort them together: the ones that need a person now, the ones to book, and the ones a text finishes.

2

Teach it how you answer

The receptionist learns your trade from the answers your crew already gives: what you fix, where you go, when you open, what a callout costs. You choose how it sounds.

3

Hook up the calendar and the transfers

A booking goes onto the calendar you connect, a transfer rings the number you pick, and every conversation is recorded and transcribed for later.

4

Correct as you go

Recordings and transcripts can be read at any point, so a rule that misfired gets corrected the next day.

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 service businesses

Lithium built the Smart Doors website first; the AI receptionist went on the garage door company’s phones later. The plumbing project on the card is a custom AI phone system that triages urgency, sends the on-call tech a text and books the rest.

FAQ

What owners ask before the line changes

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

Where do the transfers go?

The call transfers to the number you choose, whether that is the on-call tech, your own mobile or the person who answers the phone today. Emergencies, existing customers and anyone who asks for a human can all be routed to one, and every other call gets qualified and booked.

How does $179 a month work with no contract?

There is no contract on the receptionist: $179 a month, no setup fee and no minimum term, so it can be cancelled at any point. Custom automation is separate work, scoped after a free discovery call.

What does setup ask of our team?

Your call rules, your calendar access and a few days to load the answers and test the line. You ring your own line to hear it, and nothing goes live to customers until you are happy with how it sounds.

Is the line answered on holidays too?

The receptionist does, in your brand voice, and it either books the job, texts the caller the next step or transfers to whoever is on call. It answers around the clock, including nights, weekends and holidays.

Can a custom build handle the paperwork after the call?

Quotes that need chasing, CRM entries, review requests, a stack of documents and the gap between your calendar, your phones and a spreadsheet can all run themselves. A custom build is scoped on a free call, then built in one to two weeks.
