Show up first. Show up ready.
We build you a site that ranks, a phone that’s always covered, and a Google profile that shows up first when your services are needed — for a fraction of what most agencies ask for.
It's 7:40pm in January. The no-heat call goes to voicemail.
He is cold, he has two kids in the house, and he is already dialing the next company on the list. Almost nobody leaves a message when the third result answers on the second ring. That call was worth $300 on the easy end and well into four figures if the blower motor is gone — and you will never know it rang.
The usual fixes do not fix it. A message-taking answering service runs $135–$400 a month (Housecall Pro, 2026 answering-service cost guide) and still hands you a note instead of a booked job. A full-time receptionist earns a median $37,230 a year (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2024) and goes home at five. Front Desk is $397 a month and does not go home.

Start with the phone. Here is what it actually sounds like.
Hear it answer — tap to talk, right here in your browser
No signup, no phone call, nothing to install. Your browser asks for the microphone, you talk, it answers. Ninety seconds, then it hangs up.
Hear what your customers could experience.
These are demo agents, live and unscripted. Your own receptionist is built around your business, your industry, and what your customers expect — your pricing, your service area, your booking rules, and a handoff to you when it matters.
The last three demos are other industries we answer for — restaurants, salons and med spas. Full pages for salons and dental offices.
That is the voice. Next question is what it costs.
Three flat monthly plans. Nothing to calculate.
One price a month, no minute-by-minute meter, no surprise line items. Front Desk answers your phone. Front Desk + Found adds the website and your Google profile.
Your phone gets answered. Every time. Even at 2am on a Sunday.
- Answered in three rings, 24/7, on the number already on your truck
- Takes the name, callback number, address and what is broken
- Books the job on your calendar while they are still on the phone
- Texts you inside a minute with the details and the recording
- Emergencies ring your cell; everything else waits for morning
- English or Spanish, automatically
Fair use 1,000 talk minutes a month. No overage rate.
Your phone gets answered — and you are the shop people find first.
- Everything in Front Desk, with double the talk minutes
- A custom website, built and maintained, with no separate build cost
- Google Business Profile claimed, verified and posted to every week
- Reviews requested after every job and answered within a day
- Listings fixed across the directories that feed Google
- One plain-English page a month: what moved and what it was worth
Fair use 2,000 talk minutes a month. Website billed inside the plan.
For the shop that wants the whole service area, town by town.
- Everything in Front Desk + Found, with double the talk minutes again
- City pages and content for each town you actually drive to
- Map-grid ranking report by town, not one number for “Portland”
- Call tracking so you know which job came from which source
- Quarterly strategy call and priority support
Fair use 4,000 talk minutes a month.
Want the receptionist only? Front Desk is $397 a month on its own — there is no cheaper tier hiding behind it. Buying one service at a time instead? Use the tabs above.
One number, one shop. This is the one almost everybody should buy.
- Answered in three rings, day or night, on the number you already hand out
- Name, number, address and what is broken — taken on every call
- The job goes on your calendar and you get a text in 60 seconds, plus the call typed out
- Emergencies ring your cell; the rest waits for morning
- You set up nothing — live in five business days, then tuned monthly off real calls
Fair use 1,000 talk minutes a month. There is no overage rate.
Two locations — and your website leads get chased too.
- Everything in Front Desk, plus:
- Someone fills in your website form and the phone rings them back inside a minute
- The call ends and the job is already in your software — nobody loses the sticky note
- Your calls reviewed weekly instead of monthly, and a price change is live the same day
- Up to three scripted call flows — sales, service, after-hours
Fair use 2,000 talk minutes a month. There is no overage rate.
Three shops, or three trades in one office.
- Everything in Front Desk Pro, plus:
- Up to three locations or trades, each answered as its own business
- Own greeting, own questions, own calendar — and one invoice
- Under three locations, Pro does the same work for less. I will tell you that on the call
Fair use 3,000 talk minutes a month. There is no overage rate.
You like your site. You want somebody looking after it.
- Fast hosting, the padlock in the address bar, and your site saved every night
- A bad Tuesday is a 20-minute fix, not a rebuild
- If it goes down or gets hit, I know before you do
- Two changes a month — new number, new price, a special
No new site included. That is Custom Site.
A site that turns people looking at their phone into people on your phone.
- Five hand-built pages — who you are, what you fix, the towns you drive to, reviews, contact. Live in 10 business days
- I write the words off one 30-minute call. You do not get homework
- A call button under your customer’s thumb on every screen
- Somebody fills in the form and you get a text and an email
- A real page for each thing you sell, so you turn up for the job and not just your company name
- Hosting, certificate, domain, backups and monitoring included. Unlimited same-day edits, no change fees
A build to this standard is worth $4,500 on its own. Paying monthly is how you start this month instead of next year.
You work in five towns and want to look local in all five.
- Everything in Custom Site, plus:
- A real page for every town you drive to — not one page with fifteen city names in the footer
- Every quarter I change what is not working
- A page a month showing who came and who called
Only worth it above about three towns. Otherwise stay on Custom Site.
Know exactly why you are not showing up before you spend another dollar.
- A map of where you show up town by town — the streets you are invisible on, and the three shops beating you there
- Every mistake on your listing: wrong categories, missing services, duplicates on your name
- Every place on the web your phone number is wrong
- A numbered list of what to fix first, second, third
Keep the report either way. Start a plan within 30 days and the $497 comes off your first month.
Be one of the three shops in the little map box, and stay there.
- Once a week something new shows up on your Google listing. You do nothing
- New job photos every week — this month’s work gets called more than a logo from 2019
- The day after a job your customer gets a text with the review link in it
- Every review answered inside 24 hours by me
- Hours and service area checked monthly, holidays included
Included with Front Desk + Found at $897 a month.
Own every town you drive to, not just the one you are parked in.
- Everything in Profile Management, plus:
- Your name, address and phone fixed to match on 30-plus sites
- A grid showing where you are first across your service area and where you are nowhere — street by street, not one number for the whole city
Three-month minimum: listings and reviews take that long to move the map.
Pick one and the next question is how fast it happens. Five business days.
Answering your phone in five business days.
You spend about twenty minutes on it. I do the rest, and you keep the number that is already on your truck.
- Day 1A twenty-minute call: your services, your prices, your hours, the towns you drive to, and what counts as an emergency worth waking you up for.
- Day 2I write the script and build the receptionist around your business, then connect it to your calendar so it can book real slots.
- Day 3I call it myself, dozens of times, and try to break it — bad reception, angry caller, half an address, someone asking for a price you do not quote.
- Day 4You call it. Anything that sounds wrong to you gets fixed before a single customer hears it.
- Day 5Forwarding goes live on your existing number. Nothing to announce, nothing to port, nothing for your customers to learn.
- MonthlyI listen to your real calls once a month and retune the script, so it gets sharper instead of drifting.
Websites and Google Business Profile work run on their own timelines — a site is usually about a week, and local visibility compounds over months. Those steps are laid out on the services page.
“One person in Beaverton, not a call center. If it breaks, I fix it. If it is not working, I tell you before you have to ask.”
