What the phone looks like in Austin
Austin has grown faster than its trades have, so most shops are already at capacity and the phone is still ringing. When you are booked out three weeks, the value of answering is not the job today, it is not losing the customer who would have called you again.
When it gets busy. Summer cooling, and the winter storms that took out pipes across the region and still shape how people react to a freeze warning.
For a locksmith business that shows up as a lockout, a rekey, new locks, a broken key in the lock, arriving at whatever hour the caller noticed the problem. The ones you cannot let sit are a lockout, especially late at night, in bad weather, or with a child or pet inside, and those are exactly the calls that come in after your desk has gone home. HiThisIs answers them in Austin the same way it answers the ones at eleven in the morning, takes the address and what is wrong, and texts it to you.
Locksmith answering in Austin
Does it flag a lockout with a child or pet inside?
Yes. A lockout, especially late at night, in bad weather, or with a child or pet inside, gets flagged as urgent and texted to you right away. A rekey or a new-lock quote is captured as a normal lead.
Can it get the exact location for a car lockout?
Yes. It captures where the caller is, the vehicle or address, and whether they are locked out right now. You head straight there.
Does it answer the 2 a.m. lockout calls?
It answers around the clock, so the late-night lockout reaches you instead of the next locksmith in the search results. That is when these calls come.
Can it handle rekeys and new locks too?
Yes. It takes the address, what they need, and a callback number, and sets up a time. You get every lead by text and email.
