Missed-call recovery for South Florida service businesses

Turn missed calls into booked jobs.

When you can't pick up, Starmation texts your customer back within seconds, so they wait for you instead of calling your competitor. Urgent jobs go straight to your cell, and every month you see exactly how much work it recovered. No app to learn, no new phone, nothing to manage.

Your phone

The problem

A missed call is a job walking to your competitor

You can't answer every call. You're on a roof, under a unit, or it's 9pm. Your customers won't wait.

Voicemail loses jobs

When someone's AC dies in July, they don't leave a message and wait. They call the next company on Google.

The fastest reply wins the job

A homeowner with a problem usually hires whoever responds first. A text within seconds tells them you're on it, before they dial the next company.

One saved job pays for months

A single repair is worth hundreds. A system replacement, thousands. Catching just one more job a month changes the math.

How it works

Your phone still rings first

Starmation only steps in when you can't pick up, and it never pretends to be you.

  1. A customer calls your business

    Your number rings your phone, just like today. Nothing changes for calls you answer.

  2. You can't pick up

    Busy on a job, driving, or after hours. It happens to every shop.

  3. They get a text within seconds

    A friendly message from your business, in English or Spanish, with a way to reach you now or book a visit.

  4. You get what matters

    Their reply comes straight to your cell. Emergencies are flagged URGENT, and "call me" requests come to you as callbacks.

  5. Every month, you see the results

    A short report by text: calls caught, customers who replied, and jobs booked.

FAQ

Questions owners ask us

Is a robot answering my calls?

No. Your phone rings first, just like always. Starmation only sends a text when a call goes unanswered, using messages you've approved.

Do I need a new phone number or an app?

No app at all. In most cases your customers keep calling the number they already know, and we set up forwarding with you.

What if my customer speaks Spanish?

They get texts in Spanish. Customers can switch with one reply, and once they write in Spanish, every future text to them is in Spanish.

What happens with emergencies?

If a customer writes URGENT (or URGENTE), it's flagged and sent to your cell immediately, and to an on-call tech if you have one.

What does it cost after the pilot?

Free for 30 days. After that it's $297 a month: our founding rate for the first 10 shops, locked for 12 months, with the $500 setup fee waived. Month-to-month, no contract. See Pricing above for everything included.

Can my customers stop the texts?

Yes. Replying STOP ends all messages immediately. We follow carrier rules for business texting, and customer numbers are never sold or shared for marketing.

What areas do you serve?

Broward and Miami-Dade counties, with in-person setup.
