The problem

People call about pests in a panic, and then call the next company.

Nobody shops calmly for an exterminator when there are roaches in the kitchen. They want a person on the phone now, and the company that sounds like it has it handled gets the job.

You can't answer in a crawl space or a sprayer suit

Mid-treatment, you're in protective gear with the phone in the truck. The caller has a nest, a rodent or a bug problem they want dealt with today, and the voicemail beep is not reassuring.

Urgent and routine calls sound the same on voicemail

A hornet nest by a child's play set and a request for a quarterly service quote come in as the same blinking light. You end up calling back in order of arrival instead of order of urgency.

Recurring customers are your steady income, and they call too

Quarterly treatment clients want to move a date, ask what to do before you arrive, or report that something came back. If those calls go unanswered, the plan quietly lapses.


How Speechless handles your pest control calls

1

Asks what they're seeing and where

The agent asks which pest, where in the property, and how long it has been going on. It takes the address, a first name and the best callback number, so you can plan the visit before you phone back.

2

Puts the urgent calls in front of you

You tell it what counts as urgent, such as a nest near an entry, an active rodent problem or a customer who can't wait. Those calls go to your phone with the caller announced first, or get flagged for an immediate callback.

3

Handles the recurring-service calls without you

A customer who wants to move a quarterly visit or ask about a service gets an answer from the details you gave it, or a booking request for you to confirm. If it doesn't know, it says so and takes a message.

Frequently asked questions

Can it tell callers which treatment to use or what is safe around pets?
No. It shares only the preparation notes and service information you've written for it. Questions about products, chemicals or safety for people and pets get a message taken for you, so the answer comes from a licensed technician.
How does it decide a call is an urgent infestation?
You decide. List the situations you treat as urgent, and the agent sorts each caller against that list while it asks about the problem. Urgent calls go through to your phone or get flagged for a callback, and everything else goes on your normal list.
Can it quote a price for a treatment or a monthly plan?
It gives the prices you've entered, such as an initial visit fee or a plan rate. Where the price depends on the size of the property or the pest, it says an inspection comes first and offers to book one. It never invents a figure.
Does it help with quarterly and annual service customers?
It takes reschedule requests and questions from them, and with a calendar connected it offers only slots that are open. You also get a reminder when the agent has promised a customer a callback.
Do I need to give up my existing business number?
No. You forward calls from the number customers already know, all calls, only missed calls, or only after hours and when you're busy. That works with carriers that support call forwarding, including AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile.
What are the plans and the trial?
Starter is $39 a month with 250 minutes, Pro is $129 with 1,000 and Scale is $249 with 2,000. Overage is $0.20, $0.17 and $0.15 a minute. A card starts a 14-day free trial of Starter, and there are no contracts.
