What is missed-call text back?
It's a simple automation that watches for calls you don't pick up. When one comes in, it sends the caller a short message you've agreed in advance, such as: "Sorry I missed you. What can I help with? I'll get back to you shortly."
How does it work?
- Someone rings your business and you can't answer.
- A text goes to their number automatically, in your words.
- They can reply with what they need, so you have the details when you call back.
- You get a note of the missed call and any reply, so nothing slips through.
Who is it for?
Anyone who can't always get to the phone. If a missed call usually means the customer rings the next business on their list, this gives you a better chance of keeping them.
Will it sound like a robot?
No. I'll write the message with you so it sounds like you, and it only sends once per missed call.
