How we measure
Coverage is a number. Most owners have never seen theirs.
Ask any owner "do you get back to people fast?" — the answer is always yes. Measured, the answers spread across a 0–100 scale. Here's how the number is built.
The four axes
- Hours coverage (30%). How much of the 168-hour week a call or quote request gets a real response — answered hours plus whatever genuinely covers nights and weekends, weighted by how much each arrangement actually catches. A personal cell counts for something; it doesn't count for coverage.
- Response speed (25%). Minutes to first response, working hours and after — weighted 50/50 for the trades, because emergencies don't respect your schedule.
- Follow-up persistence (25%). How many times a missed lead hears from you before you stop. One attempt scores near zero.
- Channel coverage (20%). Phone, form, text, social — whether every way a customer actually reaches a trade business is watched and answered.
The free score vs. the $500 first fix
The free score is what you tell us, honestly labeled as that. The first fix is a week that ends with something answering your after-5 line. Days one and two: timed test calls into your real lines — evenings and the weekend included, with your written permission — logging what a customer hears now, timestamped at the source. Days three and four: ONE fix from the menu below, built and running. Day five: the before/after in writing.
The menu (your report's worst axis picks)
- The After-Hours Answer Install (hours coverage worst — most common). Every missed call gets an instant text back with a real next step — request received, here's the link to get on the schedule — plus a voicemail greeting that points to it. The after-5 caller stops hitting a dead end.
- The On-Deck Alert Install (response speed worst). After-hours calls and forms alert whoever's on deck that night, with a first-response text template so answering takes seconds, not a callback tomorrow.
- The Morning-After Queue Install (persistence worst). Every overnight caller lands in a queue someone owns at opening — no more voicemails discovered Thursday.
- The Channel Net Install (channel coverage worst). The way customers reach you that nobody watches gets wired to alert a human.
One fix per $500, from this menu — the cap is what keeps the price honest. Scope beyond the menu is the full build, quoted in writing.
What we don't do
- No probes on channels or hours you exclude. Permission is written and explicit.
- No wasted truck rolls: test inquiries never book real service slots and are identified to your team after the window closes.
- No padded findings. If your coverage measures strong, that's the deliverable, in writing.
